should be planned so that it does not run into the unit.  
As well, rain or melting snow that comes off the unit 
should be drained away rather than accumulate and pool 
around the unit. 
Check to be certain that adequate clearance is allowed 
for entry and exit from ends of unit.  As unit has doors on 
both ends, ideally boat or equipment can be inserted or 
removed from either end.

FRAME ASSEMBLY 

 

Step1.

  Arch Assembly – Begin arch assembly by 

attaching four MC-9000 Mid Connect Tubes to four End 
Upright with Foot (EUL-5021).  Slip the swedged end of 
the upright leg into the plain end of the Mid Connect 
Tube.  Use a 2 1/8” (CBN-3005-2) Carriage Bolt with Nut 
and curved washer to secure the parts together.  Next 
assemble the remaining 10 Mid Connect Tubes (MC-
9000) to each of the remaining 10 Center Straight 
Uprights (CSU-5020).  Use a 3¼” (CBN-3005-3) 
Carriage Bolt, Nut and Cupped Washer for each.  Do not 
tighten hardware. 
 
Next assemble each of the Right Side Crest Tubes (RC-
5020) to Left Side Crest Tubes (LC-5021).  Slip the 
swedged end of the Right Crest Tube into the plain end 
of the Left Crest Tube together.  Use 3¼” (CBN-3005-3) 
carriage bolts with nut and washer through pre-drilled 
holes in frame members.  A total of seven pairs will be 
assembled.   
 
Be certain to insert carriage bolts from the outer edge 
into the interior of the unit, with the washers and nuts on 
the inside of the arches.  This will avoid tearing the fabric 
on doors and main cover when installed.  Do not tighten 
the nuts completely until the frame is completed and set 
in place. 

 

 

Attach one end upright/mid tube connect sub assembly 
to each end of a pair to assembled crest tubes to 
construct each end arch (Qty - 2).  Attach one Center 
Upright/Mid Connect Tube sub-assembly to each side of 
the remaining Crest Tube pairs to construct the interior 
arches (Qty - 5).   
 

Step 2

. Assemble each of four (4) Corner Wind Braces 

from section A & B with 1¾” (CBN-3005-1) Carriage 
bolts & nuts.  Assemble two (2) Corner Wind Braces 
(CW-2800) to the first End Arch Assembly to the lower 
hole on Upright w/ Foot EUL-5021 (refer to frame 
illustration).  Use a 3¼” (CBN-3005-3) Carriage Bolt with 
Washer and Nut to secure the braces loosely to the 
Upright.  Do not tighten completely. 
 

Step 3

.  Prepare the first End Arch Assembly by 

attaching the first of the side and cross rails.  Begin the 
bottom and side rails with (4) (ECR-5031) Plain End 
Cross Rails to the End Arch with 3¼” (CBN-3000-3) 
carriage bolts, washers, and nuts through the pre-drilled 
holes in the arch members.  The Cross Rails must be on 
the interior of the arch assemblies.  The Base Cross 
Rails should be put into the bottom hole of the arch 
upright.  The Side Cross Rails should be placed in the 
top hole of the Mid Connect Tube where it meets the top 
crest tube.  Again, don’t tighten the hardware until the 
next arch and cross rails are assembled.  It is very 
important to make certain all nuts are on the inside of the 
unit to avoid damaging the cover when put on.

With the assistance of a second person, support the End 
Arch Assembly vertically.  Next stand an interior arch 
assembly up vertically into position, approximately 60” 
apart.  Connect the Base and Side Cross Rails from the 
End Arch to the Interior Arch.  Align the holes near the 
end of the cross rails with the holes in the interior arch.
