ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Tools needed – (2) 7/16” wrenches, a Phillips head screwdriver,
rubber mallet (optional), and a cordless drill (optional).
Assembly Note: This ice shelter should be assembled in a
garage or basement setting due to the time and length of
assembly. Identify and familiarize yourself with all parts
and hardware before assembly. Allow 1-3 hours for assem-
bly.
Assembly Note: The use of a cordless drill with socket will
make assembly of your ice shelter much quicker. Be sure to
set the drill speed on low so you do not over tighten any nut
and bolt combination.
Assembly Note: If a tracking kit is purchased with the
shelter it should be mounted to the sled before assembly
of the ice shelter for convenience.
Important Assembly Tip: Do NOT fully tighten any nut and
bolt combination until instructed in later notes. This will
help hole alignment of all parts.
1. Attach the riser hinge A (68052) and tub support strap
(69677) to the tub using (4) ¼-20 x 1” bolts, (8) ¼” washers
and (4) ¼-20 nylock nuts. Align the hole pattern on the
tub support strap (69677) with the hole pattern on the
riser hinge A (68052) to the matching hole pattern on the
sled. Insert bolts starting with hole #1 (using (1) ¼-20 x 1”
bolt, (2) ¼” washers and (1) ¼-20 nylock nuts) then move
on to #3, #5 and #6, tightening bolt/nut combinations as
you go. SEE FIGURE 1
Note: The Riser Hinge A (68052) must have the open side
facing towards the inside of the sled.
2. Repeat step 1 on the opposite side using Riser Hinge B
assembly (68053). SEE FIGURE 1
3. Attach the (2) hinge support brace (11203) to both the riser
hinge A (68052) and riser hinge B (68053) using (4) ¼-20 x 3/4”
bolts, (6) ¼” washers, and (4) ¼-20 nylock nuts. Attach the hinge
support brace (11203) to hole #7 on the sled. SEE FIGURE 1
Note: If the hole alignment is off or looks too far apart,
rotate the hinge support brace and try again. This part will
only bolt on one way.
4. Attach the assembly hinge A (15552) to riser hinge A (68052)
using (2) ¼-20 x ¾” bolts, (2) ¼-20 nylock nuts and (4) ¼”
washers. SEE FIGURE 2
5. Repeat step 3 on the opposite side by attaching the assembly
hinge B (15551) to riser hinge B(68053). SEE FIGURE 2
Note: Be sure the J-Pole faces towards the inside of the sled
when the hinge assembly is complete.
