4.7.
Installing the Front and Back Covers
4.7.1. The front cover contains a zippered door to allow entry and exit to the shelter. Make sure the door is located at the desired end.
4.7.2. Make sure the zip is closed during installation.
4.7.3. The back cover is a solid piece of polythene. The back and the front covers are installed in the same way.
4.7.4. To make sure the strap will stay in the sleeve during assembly, thread through the spindle of the ratchet. Raise and lower the handle two
or three times to wind the strap onto the spindle, see fig.9.
4.7.5. Begin with the front cover and first locate the webbed belt that runs the perimeter of the cover. The webbing is exposed at the peak, the
shoulders and at the feet of the cover. The webbing has two loose ends. Tie off the two loose ends of the webbed belt, one to each of the
two corner legs.
4.7.6. Use a rubber mallet to disconnect the shoulder pipe (part 5) from the connector (parts 9 and 10) located between the leg and the roof
pipes.
4.7.7. Slip the webbed belt between pipe 5 and the connector as shown in fig.10. Rejoin the pipes.

4.7.8. Repeat this step for the opposite shoulder.
4.7.9. Move to the peak of the shelter. Using a step
stool or ladder and a rubber mallet,
disconnect the peak pipe (part 5), from the
connector (part 7). Slip the webbed belt between
the pipes and reconnect.
4.7.10. Next insert the S-hook of the ratchet into the
hole in the corner leg, and ratchet up/down a
couple of times to hold the ratchet and belt in
place, see fig.11.
4.7.11. Repeat for the other loose end of the webbed
belt.
4.7.12. While one person remains on the stool,
standing at the peak of the shelter, the other
person tightens the ratchet, first at the foot of
one corner leg and then moving over to the foot
of the other corner leg.
4.7.13. The person at the peak assists by ensuring
the cover is partially folded over the pipes of the
end of the frame and inside or toward the interior
of the shelter.
4.7.14. Ensure the overlap of the cover flap remains
square over the end frame and reaches the
ground at the base while tightening the ratchets,
see fig.12.
4.7.15. Repeat the above steps for the other side of the
door panel assembly.
