Safety Notes

Please read through this assembly manual completely before beginning your installation. Be sure the proper equipment •
and safety precautions are in place. We hope that you enjoy the design features of the tent each time the unit is installed.

Consult your local • utility locator service or the National Utility Locating Contractors Association
(NULCA) prior to installation.

•
Prior to actual tent assembly, be sure to look up, down, above & below for obstacles, pipes, wires, •
trouble, etc.

Be alert to avoid contact of Tent poles with any overhead power lines near the site.•

Keep site clear of debris to avoid tripping, especially while carrying tent poles or bundle of fabric.•

When moving tent sections by hand, use proper lifting techniques to protect the back.•

The installation method described here requires coordination of tasks between workers. A safe installation is dependent •
on that coordination. Work cooperatively as a team.

Replace used or damaged components with original new ones.•

To prevent injuries, wear suitable protective clothing such as hard hats, steel toed shoes, etc.•

Do not drag bundle of fabric on concrete, asphalt, or ground as this can cause damage to the fabric from abrasion through •
the bag.

This tent is manufactured for use as a temporary structure. Evacuation is recommended if threatening or windy weather •
occurs. See caution on back page of this manual.
