remove from outside the structure. DO NOT use hard-edged tools or instruments like rakes or shovels to
remove snow. This could result in punctures to the cover. DO NOT use bleach or harsh abrasive products to

10 ft.
8. PROPERLY ANCHOR FRAME
Your unit comes with 4 temporary Shelter Auger™ Earth Anchors. For best results, ShelterLogic
recommends additional anchors, one for each foot of your frame.
A. Anchors must be placed inside shelter at the corners of the shelter. Insert a ¾-inch pipe or steel rod,
through the eyelet of the auger and screw the anchor into the ground until the eyelet is sticking out of the
ground by 1 to 2 inches so it can be anchored to the legs.
If ground is too hard, dig a hole with a shovel or post hole tool. Optional: Place auger in hole and ll with cement.
B. Thread cable provided through the eyelets of the Anchor as indicated in gure. Secure the cable with the
clamps provided.
NOTE:
15" Augers are for temporary use only!
For best results ShelterLogic recommends
using our Easy Hooks (#10036 4-pack, #10035
6-pack, or #10038 8-pack) for a stronger, more
secure installation.
