4.2 - General Safety Information
!
! CAUTION !
-
The clearances between the tent rods, rod ends, and central hub are very tight.
Use care when placing hands to deploy and take-down the Umbrella. Avoid holding the rods
near the hub to eliminate the chances of pinching or trapping fingers.
! CAUTION !
-
The tent rods are in significant tension when the tent is deployed. They have
potential energy stored in their curvature which could result in a rapid motion if their restraints
were removed. Never cut or deteriorate the rod pockets or cable ties associated with the rods.
! CAUTION !
-
The Umbrella will be deployed overhead, and there are inherent risks in over-
head work. Always be aware and use caution when working under equipment. During deploy-
ment and take-down, use caution to manually stabilize the support structure whenever both cups
are not secured to the anchoring location. During operation, periodically check cups for positive
suction.
Safety Precautions:
It is necessary to follow these safety precautions, each time, prior to using the product.
The Safety Precautions are not limited to, but must include the following items;
1.
Do not use the shelter for anything other than its intended use.
2.
Loose fabric may become caught in rotating machinery; if operating a ventilator, heater/blower, or any other equip-
ment with spinning parts, be sure that adequate clearance is given between the Umbrella and rotating equipment,
especially during set-up and take-down.
3.
The fabric of the Umbrella is flame resistant, however, exposure to flame or spark may cause it to ignite. Never allow
a fire near, or impose residual sparks on the Umbrella. Do not smoke while under the Umbrella.
4.
Prevent any fumes from any internal combustion engines (such as a vehicle or generator) from entering the
Umbrella. The open sides can lead to a false sense of ventilation. Any warm exhaust fumes will rise, and be trapped
in the dome.
5.
Similarly, do not store any solvents or petroleum products under the Umbrella; the fumes are noxious and the danger
of explosion from accumulation of volatile gases is severe.
6.
Since weather is unpredictable, the user must incorporate their own good judgement, common sense, and knowl-
edge of local conditions with the installation instructions. The installer is responsible for anticipating weather severity
for proper time and method of installation.
