SECURING FRAME ARCHES HORIZONTALLY

To help hold the frame in place and square, you can
insert a piece of rebar or a stake into the hole in the
corner feet and the center arch feet, into the ground.
This will help keep the frame in place, and prevent
the ends from spreading and straining the zippered
doors.


TIGHTEN DOWN FRAME CARRIAGE BOLTS

Once frame is square and leveled and properly
supported at each arch base, tighten down carriage
bolts. Do not tighten carriage bolts on End Arch
Assemblies, as these will be removed to put on doors.
Do NOT over-tighten bolts to crush or egg tubing
members. Only tighten with hand wrench.

After tightening, re-check dimensions both side to
side and cross end to end. Then insert PLASTIC
END PLUGS #EP-1000 & #EP-1 001 into all open
ends of frame members.

ANCHORING FRAME TO GROUND

NOTE: Frame must be anchored before
installing any doors or cover.

Each Rhino Shelter 14x42 building comes with 22
EARTH CABLE ANCHORS #DBA-3000 with U-bolts
and nuts. These versatile anchors allow the frame to
be secured to almost any surface. In addition you have
also been provided with a 36” Drive Rod # DR-3001
used to drive the anchor heads into the earth.

If the location where you are placing the building has
very hard ground or any rock in it, pre-drill the holes
before inserting anchors. Hitting the anchors into
rock will cause the drive rod end to mushroom inside
the anchor head, and prevent the drive rod from
coming out of the hole.


Anchor placement should be on the inside of the unit,
at each corner and at the base of each upright leg
pole. Angle the anchor placement to prevent the
frame from spreading out over time.
