Begin by determining exact location
of the four (4) corners of the building.
Mark front edge and side-to-side
width of assembly on ground. Drive
alignment stakes into the ground
outside of the markings, and draw
alignment strings along both ends and
sides of the building to the
dimensions shown in Figure 3. The
outline of the strings will represent
the final location of the base flanges.
The initial location of each Corner
Base Flanges (
6
R &
6
L) is critical to
the alignment and fit of the frame
components and cover.
Locate the Left Corner Base Flange and
Right Corner Base Flange(
6
R
&6
L). Secure
the base flanges with Stake Pegs (Part
#
25
). Measurements shown in Figure 2 are
to the center of the upright sockets on each
Base Flange.
The Shelter must be secured to a firm
surface that can receive and retain augers
and pegs firmly in position. The shelter
should be installed on FIRM GROUND,
not on SWAMP, SOFT/WET GROUND.
The Base Flanges must be secured so they
cannot be moved. Arches are tensioned at
their base as they insert into the Base Plate
sockets.
