installer. Some soils require staking or securing different from that which was provided with the
tent.
2. Good judgment and common sense must be used along with installation guidelines. It is the
responsibility of the tent installer/maintainer to anticipate the severity of the weather along with
the proper time and method of setup and take down. Evacuation of the tent is recommended
before weather becomes extreme. A successful event is a safe event.
3. Proper safety equipment, such as hard hats, steel toe shoes, and safety glasses, should be used
to ensure a safe setup and take down.
