carbon monoxide can cause headaches, drowsiness,
nausea, dizziness, confusion and eventually death. Use
caution with heaters. Be sure you have adequate fresh
ventilation, including open windows and doors. All vents
must be opened when using fuel-based heaters in your
shelter.
• Do not use candles, matches or open ames of any
kind in or near an ice shelter.
• Do not cook inside the shelter.
• Exercise extreme caution when using fuel-powered
lanterns or heaters inside a tent. Use battery-operated
lanterns whenever possible.
• Do not refuel lamps, heaters or stoves inside a tent.
• If you are shing and falling asleep intermittently, turn
o all lanterns and heaters.
• Do not smoke in shelter.
• Do not store ammable liquids inside of the shelter
.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
TOOLS NEEDED:
• (2) 7/16" wrenches and/or socket driver
• Cordless drill with #1 Philips head bit
BOLT IDENTIFICATION CHART
Not all bolt sizes shown are included with all shelters. Bolts shown are for size reference only.
Extra hardware may be included in the parts bag.
IMPORTANT ASSEMBLY TIP
DO NOT FULLY TIGHTEN ANY NUT AND BOLT COMBINATION
UNTIL INSTRUCTED IN LATER NOTES. THIS WILL HELP WITH
HOLE ALIGNMENT FOR ALL PARTS.
SEATING ASSEMBLY
ASSEMBLY TIPS:
• This ice shelter should be assembled in an indoor setting due to the
time and length of assembly. Identify and familiarize yourself with all
parts and hardware before assembly. Allow 1-2 hours for assembly.
• The use of a cordless drill with socket will make assembly of your
ice shelter much quicker. Be sure to set the drill speed on low so
you do not over tighten any nut and bolt combination.
• If a tracking kit is purchased with the shelter it should be mounted
to the sled before assembly of the ice shelter for convenience.
