003.01 Position Personnel & Locate the Exterior Lifting Hubs
1.
Locate the outermost hubs. These are the hubs with the coated steel
wire looped keepers. The outermost hubs or “lifting hubs” and the top
part of the struts are the only places from which the Shelter should be
lifted.
2.
Check that the wind lines are not snagged on any hubs. Snagged wind
lines may prevent the Shelter from spreading.
3.
To spread the Shelter;
a)
S MODELS 1, 2, & 3:
Position one person at each narrow end wall. Center one person
on each of the longer sides.
b)
S MODELS 4, 5, & 6;
Position two people per long wall at each hub point next to the
end of the wall. This will help properly distribute the load.

004.01 Position, Lift, &Spread the Shelter
Before any commands or movements by personnel, the TEAM LEADER must be
sure that all team members are in position and alert. All movements must be
uniform and coordinated.
1.
With both hands, grasp the lifting hubs. The hubs will spread out as
the Shelter is spread. The top of the Shelter must be spread out at the
same rate as the bottom.
NOTE: THE SHELTER
MUST BE LIFTED OFF THE
GROUND. DO
NOT STEP ON THE FABRIC LINER.
Figure 2-4 - Lifting & Spreading the Shelter
1.
On the Team Leader’s command (“Ready to lift? Lift”) each team member will lift the Shelter off the ground, take
two short steps backward and put the shelter down.
a)
If any resistance felt by any team member, immediately yell “STOP”, identify the restriction and correct it.
NOTE:
If utilizing a “T” boot, make sure the boot is attached to the shelter. Connect the boot to the shelter by
securing the Velcro until you reach the grommets. For a “T” to “T” connection, make sure the “T” boot is
detached.
2.
Continue to lift, step back, and spread the Shelter.
a)
On command, continue to lift the Shelter at the highest point of
the strut, step backward, and spread.
b)
At maximum spread, the Shelter will resist any further
expansion and the center of the exterior cover will rise slightly
and appear to inflate or “puff”. The shelter should be extended
beyond the ground cover.

NOTE
DO NOT GRAB THE MIDDLE
OF THE STRUTS.
