SITE PREPARATION
To prepare the site for installing the front and back panels of the shelter:
1. Ensure that all the components are present by checking with the Component List prior to installation.
2. Lay out all the components within the marked-out site, in the approximate locations at which they will be
assembled. is makes preliminary work easier on an open, clear space rather than having parts scattered
in the way.

1. Install both end panels’ base plates at the side (component code 8) and the base plates for the front door
(component code 8A), as shown in Figure 1.
2. Secure the base plates at the side (8) using two 450 mm stake pegs (component code 34) each, and secure
the base plates for the front door (8A) using two 700 mm stake pegs (component code 35) each, as shown
in Figure 2.
3. Install the standing legs at the side (component code 9) and the standing legs at the front panel’s side
(component code 9A) on the base plates, as shown in Figure 1. e bottom of the standing legs is nar-
rower than the short tubes that are welded on the base plates and can be inserted into it. Secure the upper
ends of the standing legs (9 and 9A) to the arch using clips (component code 37), as shown in Figure 2.
4. Insert the winch door’s le lower track (component code 10L) and the winch door’s right lower track
(component code 10R) on the base plates for the front door (8A), as shown in Figure 1. e bottom of the
lower tracks is narrower than the short tubes that are welded on the base plates and can be inserted into
it.
5. Insert the winch door’s le upper track (component code 11L) into the winch door’s le lower track
(component code 10L) and the winch door’s right upper track (component code 11R) into the winch
door’s right lower track (component code 10R), as shown in Figure 1.

6. Secure the lower and upper tracks using M10 x 90 mm bolts (component code 29) and the door side
splint (component code 36), as shown in Figure 2. Secure the upper tracks (11L and 11R) to the arch us-
ing M10 x 30 mm bolts (component codes 32), as shown in Figure 2.
7. Install the bottom tensioning tubes at the front panel (component code 14), as shown in Figure 1.
NOTE:
• Plug both the ends of the bottom tensioning tubes with plastic plugs, if available.
• ere are clips on the base plates to x the bottom tensioning tubes, as shown in Figure 3.
8. Install the horizontal tubes at the front panel (component code 13), as shown in Figure 1. Secure com-
ponent code 13 to component codes 9 / 9A using M8 x 70 mm carriage bolts (component code 30), as
shown in Figure 2. Secure component code 13 to the tracks using M10 x 30 mm bolts (component code
32).
9. Install the winch door beams (component code 12) between the winch door’s upper tracks, and secure
using M10 x 90 mm bolts (component code 29), as shown in Figure 2.

FRONT COVER INSTALLATION
1. Spread the cover for the front panel (component code 20) on the ground, and insert the dropping tubes
for the winch door (component code 33) into the horizontal fabric pouch of the front panel cover, as
CAUTION: Do not install the front cover onto the frame of the shelter in high wind conditions.
10. Connect the winch door’s suspending tube (component code 12A) to the winch door beam using M10 x
90 mm bolts (component code 29), as shown in Figures 1 and 2. Secure the winch door’s suspending tube
to the arch using M10 x 30 mm bolts (component code 32), as shown in Figure 2.
NOTE:
If an angle iron is available in the installation kit, weld the angle iron to the top bent tube of the arch and use
clips and matching bolts to connect the winch door’s suspending tube to the arch.
11. Install the square tube for the winch wheel (component code 12B), and secure it to the winch door’s right
lower track (component code 10R) using M10 x 90 mm bolts (component code 29), as shown in Figures 1
and 2. Secure component code 12B to 9A using clips.
12. Install the winch wheel with steel wire (component code 12C), and secure it to the square tube using M10
x 90 mm bolts (component code 29), as shown in Figures 1 and 2.

shown in Figure 4.
2. Pull one end of the steel wire on the winch wheel (component code 12C) through the double pulley to the
single pulley, wrapping the wire around the door beam. Pull the other end of the steel wire directly to the
double pulley, as shown in Figure 4.
3. Allow both ends of the steel wire, from the single pulley and double pulley, respectively, to go down
through the hole on the door dropping tube to the bottom of the door, as shown in Figure 4.
4. Tie a knot at the bottom of both sides of the dropping tubes to secure the wires and ensure they do not
pass back.
5. Tie the end of the steel wire to the winch wheel.
6. Erect the cover for the front panel, and tie the cover to the frame using ropes (component code 23), as
shown in Figure 4.
7. Operate the winch wheel to open and close the door.

BACK WALL ASSEMBLY
1. Install both end panels’ base plate at the side (component code 8) and both end panels’ base plate at the
middle (component code 8B), as shown in Figure 5. Secure the 8 and 8B base plates using two 450 mm
stake pegs (component code 34) each, as shown in Figure 5.
2. Insert the standing legs at the side (component code 9) into the end panels’ base plate at the side (compo-
nent code 8), as shown in Figure 5. e standing legs (component code 9) are connected to the arch using
clips (component code 37), as shown in Figure 5.
3. Insert the lower standing legs at the middle of the back panel (component code 15) into the end panels’
base plate at the middle (component code 8B), as shown in Figure 5. e bottom of the standing legs is
narrower than the short tubes that are welded on the base plates and can be inserted into it.
4. Install the bottom tensioning tubes at the back panel (component code 18), as shown in Figure 5.
NOTE:
• Plug both the ends of the bottom tensioning tubes with plastic plugs, if available.
• ere are clips on the base plates to x the bottom tensioning tubes, as shown in Figure 6.

BACK COVER INSTALLATION
1. Install the cover for the back panel (component code 21) onto the frame of the back wall, as shown in
Figure 7.
2. Lace the back cover securely onto the frame using ropes (component code 23), as shown in Figure 7.
NOTE:
Ensure that you do not over tighten the lacings.
3. Your assembly of the front and back panels is complete.
CAUTION: Do not install the back cover onto the frame of the back wall of the shelter in high wind
conditions.
5. Insert the upper standing legs at the middle of the back panel (component code 16) into component code
15, and secure using M8 x 70 mm carriage bolts (component code 30), as shown in Figure 5. e upper
standing legs are connected to the arch using clips (component code 37), as shown in Figure 5.
6. Install the back panel horizontal tubes (component code 17), and secure using M8 x 70 mm carriage bolts
(component code 30) as shown in Figure 5.
7. Ensure that all the bolts are secured tightly before installing the back cover.
