Safety Advice

Attention
In some countries approval is needed to set up a tent larger than 75 m2. It is your responsibility to comply with local rules and regulations and to ensure that the tent is assembled correctly.
In case of bad weather conditions, it is your responsibility to ensure the tent is safely secured and that the tent does not cause damage to others.
Do not use open fire, welding equipment or other sources which can ignite, inside or close to the tent.
The tent must be safely secured. We recommend you secure your tent with straps and pegs as soon as it is assembled.
Make sure to check if the tent is covered by your home contents insurance.
Tents must be evacuated under extreme weather conditions.
In the event of snow, always remove snow from the roof of the tent regularly to prevent snow from building on the roof, as heavy snow can cause the tent to collapse.
In the event of rain, there is a risk of rain puddles building up on top of the roof of the tent.
Heavy rain puddles can cause the roof to collapse. It is your responsibility to ensure rain puddles do not build up. As a precaution, make sure the roof of the tent is stretched out properly and adequately over the side frames of the tent and remove rain water regularly.
Do not unpack or repack your tent in freezing temperatures. In case of temperatures below zero, always unpack and repack your tent indoors to avoid the risk of cracking parts.
The tent must be totally dry before you repack and store it to avoid mildew.

Maintenance and care

Annually or more often, the unit should be completely inspected internally and externally to make certain the unit remains properly installed and secured .Particular attention should be paid to:
Hardware-check all carriage bolts and hardware connectors to be certain they are in place and tightened.
Weather trends, the unit will strain against the base plate flange under windy conditions, pegs hardware, connection to frame members should be maintained tight and depth of pegs should be checked to be certain they remain deeply and firmly set.
Snow Accumulation -All snow accumulation on the main cover should be removed as soon as possible. Tap the main cover from the inside with a broom or soft brush to clear cover.
Main Cover Lacing-the poly rope that secures the main cover to the bottom rail of the frame assembly should be checked, and adjusted as needed. The tension on the main cover should be uniform from end and side to side. Rope ends must be tied off onto the frame members at the ends on each side.
Cleaning -cover and doors can be cleaned with a mixture of light detergent and water. A soft bristle brush with the mixture can be used to loosen any hard dirt, mold, or buildup on the cover. After cleansing, the cover should be rinsed thoroughly to avoid any chemical reaction from residual detergent. Allowing dirt and debris to sit on cover over an extended time will damage cover irreparably.

DANCOVER 6x6x3,7m Arched Storage for Animals - Sketch

Step #1 –SECURING BASE FLANGES
Sit the building boxes in the chosen location. Remove all the components from packaging to ensure all components are present by checking with the Part List.
DANCOVER 6x6x3,7m Arched Storage for Animals - BASE
FLANGESBegin by determining exact location of the four (4) corners of the building. Mark front edge and side-to- side width of assembly on ground. Drive alignment stakes into the ground outside of the markings, and draw alignment strings along both ends and sides of the building to the dimensions shown in Figure 2. The outline of the strings will represent the final location of the base flanges. The initial location of each Corner Base Flanges is critical to the alignment and fit of the frame components and cover. Locate the Left Corner Base Flange and Right Corner Base Flange. Secure the base flanges with Stake Pegs. Measurements shown in Figure 2 are to the center of the upright sockets on each Base Flange.
The Shelter must be secured to a firm surface that can receive and retain pegs firmly in position. The shelter should be installed on FIRM GROUND, not on SWAMP, SOFT/WET GROUND. The Base Flanges must be secured so they cannot be moved.
Arches are tensioned at their base as they insert into the Base Flange sockets.
Step #2 –ARCH ASSEMBLY
Assemble each arch on ground. Each arches consist of:
One top roof tube (Part #1)
Two middle roof tube (Part #2/2A)
Two side roof tube (Part # 3/3A)

Connect the arches by Using the hexagon bolts with washers and nuts through predrilled holes in frame members. Do not tighten down the nuts completely until frame is fully assembled and set in place.
THE FRONT AND BACK PANEL FRAME ASSEMBLY

DANCOVER 6x6x3,7m Arched Storage for Animals -
ASSEMBLY1|
---|---

Assemble the front and back panel frame. According to Figure 5&6 connect the end wall frame by Using the bolts with washers and nuts through predrilled holes in frame members. Do not tighten down the nuts completely until frame is fully assembled and set in place.
NOTE: Please notice that the part code of the arch sections. The sections of different arches are not the same. Check with the Part List and the Sketch Figure #1.

Step #3 –ERECTING ARCHES

Begin frame assembly by erecting Front Arch into Front Corner Base Flanges. Place left frame sidewall tubing into the upright tube socket into the Left Base Flange. Place Hexagonal Bolt through base flange socket and arch sidewall tube hole.
In order to insert Right Sidewall Tube into Right Front Corner flange, it is necessary to support arch on left side to prevent movement. Position the Right Sidewall Tube over the Right Corner Base Flange.
Once the Right Sidewall Tube is placed into right corner base flange, insert a hexagonal bolt and nut to prevent it from popping out of the socket while assembly continues.
Next stand first interior arch up to repeat insertion into Base flanges.

Immediately after putting first interior arch into place, connect Front Arch and Interior arch using Roof Purlin Tubes at top ridge and side shoulder cures of arches. Secure the Roof Purlin tubes into place using carriage bolts and nuts.
Continue to install other Arches Assemblies in the same manner.
Overlap pinched ends of Roof Purlin onto same carriage bolts inside frame assembly.
Next check entire frame assembly for square and plumb. Next tighten frame bolts adequately. DO NOT over tighten bolts so as to oval or compress frame components.
Step #4 -FRAME INSTALLATION FOR SIDES FENCE AND DOOR FENCE
Immediately after erecting all arches and vertical tubes, connect side fence part #15/15A and door fence with bolt (part #20).
