Instructions and Safety Tips
- PUT SAFETY FIRST
To prevent serious personal injury or death, study and fully understand the proper operating procedures and safety precautions
outlined in this owner's manual before attempting to install or use this dock. If you have any questions about assembly,
installation, use or suitability of this product, contact an authorized dealer.
▪NOT COMPLYING WITH THE PROCEDURES AND PRECAUTIONS OUTLINED IN THIS MANUAL MAY RESULT IN
PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH AND WILL INVALIDATE THE WARRANTY.
▪To avoid personal injury do not run on dock or dive off the dock. Running on dock could result in a falling injury. Diving off
dock could result in a severe head, neck, or back injury or death. Use caution, especially when surface is wet.
▪To avoid personal injury wear protective gloves, clothing and safety glasses when assembling and installing the dock.
▪Do not drop parts in the water. Please remove any Leg Caps or other parts from lake bottom to avoid injury.
▪Be sure your dock can be installed on a firm and stable foundation. If lake bottom does not allow for a secure installation, this
product may not be suitable. ShoreMaster builds a wide variety of docks. Call your dealer for suggestions or other options.
▪Install high enough above water surface, so waves do not contact Dock Frames or Panels.
▪Read and fully understand each step before proceeding with that step.
▪Do not assemble, install or use this product if items are missing or damaged.

Note: RS4 dock shown for example. Connections also
apply for RS7 and TS9.
Tools needed:
1. 9/16”Wrench
2. Measuring Tape
3. Optional - Carpenter's Level
Tips:
Before assembly determine the layout of the dock system.
Take depth measurements at ten foot intervals starting at where
the dock will start.
Have adequate dock leg lengths to accommodate water
fluctuation and waves.
For ease of assembly find a flat area with sufficient room to
assemble dock.
STEP 1
After determining the layout of your dock system, install all leg
pockets according to their instructions. The number and location
of leg pockets will depend on the specific layout and the type of
leg posts.
STEP 2
Attach one foot pad to each leg post. Secure leg post with one 1/2
x 1-1/4 Set screw and one 1/2 square nut per leg.
Note: Leg posts are ordered separately from dock section
because of varying lengths needed.
STEP 3
Determine which side of the dock frame will be connected to other
sections. Insert one 3/8 Nut into each Connector Clip and thread
the 3/8 x 1-1/2 T-Handle through it just so they stay together - as
shown in Detail "A".
Attach connector clips to the rail. Secure with one 3/8 x 1 carriage
bolt and one 3/8 flange nut. The carriage bolt head inserts into the
opening in the bottom slot of the rail and attaches to the
connector clip - as shown in Detail "A".
Place the connector clip six inches or less in from the corner - as
shown in Detail "B".
A rail six feet or less requires two connector clips.
Rails greater than six feet need a third connector in the middle of
the connection for proper stability.
Make sure the connector clip assembly is
fully clear of the opening in the slot. If the t-handle is
threaded into the opening of the slot before the dock
frame is set in place, it will prevent proper securing of
the dock sections and may lead to physical injury.

Leg caps are included for each corner tube that is not used or does
not have a leg post above the deck surface - as shown below.
NOTE: To avoid cracking the press in caps it is best to use a large
rubber mallet to install. Start by lightly tapping around the edges until
the cap is completely fit into the leg pocket.
The leg posts that are above the deck surface may be covered with a
blue cap - as shown below.

USE, REMOVAL, STORAGE AND SERVICE
▪Upon completed installation, your dock system is ready for use. Many ShoreMaster dock accessories are available to
compliment your dock system. Contact your dealer for available options.
The dock system must be removed from water during the winter months. Warranty is void if dock is exposed
to ice conditions.
▪You may remove each frame with panels in place, or you can remove the panels before detaching the frames. Stack panels on
a flat surface, and store them in a dry area to preserve life.
▪Inspect frames, panels, connections, nuts, and bolts at least once every six months for damage, wear or loose connections.
Tighten or replace parts as needed.
▪ShoreMaster dealers usually offer service visits. Please contact them if you are unable or unwilling to perform service to docks.

Now the first frame can be carried into place. Place the second
frame into the connector clips of the first - as shown to the right.
To avoid personal injury the connector clips
must be bolted to a dock frame that is supported by legs. The
unsupported end of the attaching dock frame will set into the
connector clip. If the connector clip is bolted to the dock frame
that is not supported by legs the dock section may come loose
and fall, causing injury.
Secure by tightening the 3/8 x 1-1/2 T-Handle - as shown in
Detail "A".
Note: Two connector clips are needed if connecting to an end
rail. Three are needed if connecting two side rails together.
