Section 1: Unpacking & Inspecting Shipment
{Unpacking & Inspecting Steps}
Step 1
The Kat Play-Around requires assembly. As in the example above, the component parts are shipped on skids with
protective wrap. Upon receipt the parts for your Kat Play-Around should be carefully examined for possible damage
in shipment. If damage is found, notify Shor-Line immediately at 800-444-1579.
Step 2
Review Section 11: Shor-Line warranty information. For more information, visit: shor-line.com/warranty.
Then click the Damages/Returns/Repairs link on the left.
Step 3
Remove and separate all contents from the shipping containers. Locate the Packing Slip that describes the parts
and quantities shipped. Use the Packing Slip to ensure nothing has been lost.
Step 4
Check content for concealed damage.
If Concealed Damage:
Call Shor-Line immediately at 800-444-1579 so we may expedite replacements or repairs.
IMPORTANT: After fteen (15) calendar days of receipt of merchandise, this policy becomes void.

Section 2: Pre-Installation
{Pre-Installation Organization and Review}
Before you begin the installation/assembly of your Kat Play-Around you should review this section in its entirety.
The following charts will outline all the component parts, the hardware and the tools needed to assemble your new
kennel. Your new Kat Play-Around has been precision made based on your design decisions such as material, color,
etc. Because of the difference in design, the component parts list and hardware list may differ from what is listed in
this guide. However, the number of components and the assembly process will not differ, EXAMPLE: the component
parts list indicates 2 side panel assy, GLS/PVC. During the design process you chose 2 full PVC panels which
resulted in two separate line items on your packing slip. However, this does not change the number of units or the
assembly process. Once assembled, your kennel will look custom built and specially made for your facility.

Section 3: Kat Play-Around Assembly
{Floor Assembly}
Once you have reviewed sections 1 and 2 and have located and identied all hardware, you are ready to assemble
your Kat Play-Around.
Edges of steel and stainless steel kennels and individual parts may be sharp. We recommend that you always wear
protective gloves during unloading, inspection and assembly.
Installing Casters
Step 1
Stand the oor weld in an upright position to install
the casters. See Fig. 1.
Step 2
Align the (4) holes on the caster mounting plate with
the 4 holes on the weld mounting plate located in each
corner of the oor weld.
Step 3
Place one of the 5/16-18 x .750 HX HD Screws through
each of the 4 holes on the caster mounting plate into the
holes on the oor weld mounting plate and secure using
the 5/16-18 Hex Nuts.
Step 4
Tighten each hex nut using a ½"Rachet/Socket Wrench.
Step 5
Repeat steps 1-4 until all 4 casters have been installed.
IMPORTANT: Hardware must be installed in all holes
and hex nuts tightened using ½"Rachet/Socket Wrench
before proceeding.

Step 6
Turn oor right side up
with casters resting on
the oor. See Fig. 2.
NOTE: To limit
movement and make
assembly easier, set
the brake on each of
the casters by pressing
downwards.
Attaching 4-Hole Plates
Step 1
Locate two of the 4-hole
plates and four #12x1"
TEK HX HD screws
included in your hardware.
See. Fig. 3.
Step 2
Using a tape measure,
measure back 2"from
the edge of the Floor
Assembly and ¼"up from
the bottom of the Floor
Assembly in the front and
back of one side.
NOTE: The Floor
Assembly is 48 x 48" so
pick one of four sides to
install 4-hole plates.
Step 3
Using the measurements from steps 2 and the four #12x1"TEK HX HD screws install a 4-hole plate on the front and
one in the back of one side of the Floor Assembly.
NOTE: Going forward this will be the left side.

Step 5
Place the precut Acrylic PVC oor panel, textured side up on the prepared oor weld.
