3-Way Coupler 

(no lock bolt)

There can be two types of couplers used during the assembly of the shelter: those that include an installed locking eyebolt 

and those that do not. See above. 

If the couplers included with your shelter do not have an installed lock bolt, u

se a self-tapping Tek screw

 to secure the 

different pipes to the couplers during the assembly process. The self-tapping Tek screws are included with the shipment.

 

 

ATTENTION:

 Tek screws are sent with all shelters of this type. For couplers with locking eyebolts, install the Tek screws at 

each pipe connection for additional security if desired.

 

 

WARNING:

 To prevent personal injury and damage to the shelter, 

fasten and tighten a Tek screw

 at each pipe and 

coupler joint. 

 

To prevent cover damage, install the Tek screw so that it 

does not

 touch the main cover or any optional side or end 

panels once these are installed.

ADDITIONAL PARTS IDENTIFICATION NOTES

In some instances, there can be differences between the parts that are shown and referenced in the instructions and

Please implement these changes during the assembly of the shelter.
