4.8.
Installing the Main Cover
4.8.1. Lay the cover on the ground next to the frame with the inside of the cover (the side with the pipe pockets) facing down and the webbing
on the front and rear of the shelter.
4.8.2. Tie one end of a rope to the eyelets on one corner of the cover, then another rope to the other corner eyelets.
4.8.3. Pull the cover over the frame using the ropes, see fig.13, making sure it is centred over the frame.There should be an equal amount of
overhang at all four corners.
5. STORAGE
5.1.
Store the shelter in a cool, dry location between seasons to prolong useable life of all components.
5.2.
Components are not equally durable and will replacement over time at differing intervals.
4.8.4. Assemble the ratchets (part 27) onto the webbing ends on the 4 corners of the cover. Ratchet a few times to tighten the belt to the ratchet.
4.8.5. Insert the S-hook on the ratchet into the hole on the bent corner leg. Wind the ratchet so that the webbing overlaps itself.
4.8.6. Disassemble cover rails and slide through the fabric pockets at each leg and reattach with the clamps to each leg. Repeat this on the
other side. Push down on the cover rails to tighten the cover, before tightening the bolts completely, see fig.14.
4.8.7. When the cover rails are all secured, then proceed to the four corners and tighten the end covers to the end frames using the ratchets.
Note:
Over-tightening can cause damage to straps and/or the anchor point
DO NOT
overtighten.
4.8.8. The shelter is now ready for use.
Note:
Please check periodically (two to three times in the first week, weekly for the first month of setting up) the tightness of the ratchet
tie-downs and all hardware as needed. Monthly inspection is recommended throughout usage.
4.9.
Disassembly
4.9.1. When disassembling the shelter, depress the springloaded bar and open the ratchet handle completely to allow the webbed belt to
disengage the ratchet, see fig.15.
4.9.2. To dismantle, execute all these instructions in reverse order.
