YOU MUST READ THIS DOCUMENT BEFORE YOU BEGIN TO ASSEMBLE THE SHELTER.
Thank you for purchasing our shelter. When properly assembled and maintained, this product will provide years
of reliable service. These instructions include helpful hints and important information needed to safely assemble
and properly maintain the shelter. Please read these instructions before you begin.
If you have any questions during the assembly, please contact local dealer for assistance.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
. Wear eye protection.
. Wear head protection
. Wear gloves when handling metal tubes
. Use a portable GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) when working with power tools and cords.
. Do not climb on the shelter or framing during or after construction.
. Do not occupy the shelter during high winds, tornadoes, or hurricanes.
. Provide adequate ventilation if the structure is enclosed.
. Do not store hazardous materials in the shelter.
. Provide proper ingress and egress to prevent entrapment.
ANCHORING INSTRUCTIONS
Prior to assembling this shelter, please read the MUST READ document included with the shipment.
WARNING: The anchor assembly is an integral part of the shelter construction. Improper anchoring may
cause shelter instability and failure of the structure. Failing to anchor the shelter properly will void the
manufacturer’s warranty and may cause serious injury and damage.
LOCATION
Choosing the proper location is an important step before you begin to assemble the structure.
The following suggestions and precautions will help you determine whether your selected location is the best
location.
. Never erect the structure under power lines.
. Identify whether underground cables and pipes are present before preparing the site or anchoring the
structure.
. Location should be away from structures that could cause snow to drift on or around the building
. Do not position the shelter where large loads such as snow and ice, large tree branches, or other overhead
obstacles could fall.
. Your shelter’s cover can be quickly removed and stored prior to severe weather conditions. If strong winds or
severe weather is forecast in your area, we recommend removal of cover.
SITE
After choosing a location, proper preparation of the site is essential. The following site characteristics will help
ensure the integrity of the structure.
. The support structure must be level to properly and safely erect and anchor the frame.
. Drainage: Water draining off the structure and from areas surrounding the site should drain away from the site
to prevent damage to the site, the structure, and contents of the structure.
WARNING: The individuals assembling this structure are responsible for designing and furnishing all
temporary bracing, shoring and support needed during the assembly process. For safety reasons, those who are
not familiar with recognized construction methods and techniques must seek the help of a qualified contractor.

ANCHORING THE CONTAINER
Make sure you have:
Welder.
Cement.
Four 3” x 3” x 6 feet ¼” Square steel angle
1. As shown in the diagram 1, make a 3 ft deep hole right beside one of the front and opposite rear corners of
the container, in which the 6ft square steel will be installed.
2. Insert the 6ft square steel into the hole, making sure 3ft is below the surface completely laying on the side
of the containers.
3. Weld the square steel to the 2 containers.
4. Pour cement in the holes to make sure the square steel won’t move.
5. Repeat the previous steps on the corners located in the opposite rear side.
Securing the containers to the floor is crucial, that way the containers won’t shift under harsh weather
conditions, thus avoiding the shipping container canopy roof top of getting damaged.

Figure 1

2. Connect the bent joist (No.1, 2, 3) by bolt M8x70 (No.11) to be one arch.
3. Put one end of the arch into the base plate (No.6 & No.7) and fasten it by bolt M8x70 (No.11), then
try to put the other end into opposite base plate.
4. When 2 arches are in place, connect purlin (No.4) between them by carriage bolt M10x80 (No.12).
Please note the direction of the bolt, do not leave the shaft outside where the fabric will rest. By this
way, one arch and purlins between it in turn, frames are installed.
5. Install support tube (No.5) by tube clip (No.10) and bolt M8x50 (No.11A).
Note: Before install the arch, please install the clip first.

Purlin and Support Tube Installation
Cover Installation
1. Put the cover EVENLY, CAREFULLY AND SLOWLY on the frame. Insert the tensioning tube (No.8) into
the cover pipe pockets and loosely secure the belt (No.14) in the winch on based plate. DO NOT
TIGHTEN. Adjust the cover so that it is square and evenly centered on the frame.
Note: The end flaps must overhang evenly at both ends.
2. Use rope (No.15) to tighten roof cover to end arches. The rope should be cut as your requirements
when using. When the cover is tidy and ready, drive the winch tie down forth and back and then roof
cover is tightened. Pull the band inside the roof cover (four corners) by winch (No.9). The winches need
to be welded to container.
Note: DO NOT LEAVE COVER UNATTACHED UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES until the final assembly and
tightening has been completed.
The process is quite easy. But some tightening adjustments will be necessary to produce a flat,
tensioned roof cover.
