. Once frame is square and properly supported,
tighten carriage bolts on all frame members, except for
End Arch members to Cross Rails along base, side, and
top. Support End Arch feet with patio blocks or bricks as
needed if ground is soft and will not support weight well.
After hardware is tightened, insert plastic end plugs 1-
5/8” EP-1000 & 1” EP-1001 into all open ends of frame
members.
When the unit frame is square, put all the anchors in
before putting on the fabric parts. By putting the anchors
in on the inside of the unit frame, the anchors will
prevent the frame from spreading out over time. A frame
that spreads out will put undue stress on the zippers of
the doors, possibly causing failures.
ANCHORING FRAME TO GROUND
Once frame is square and properly supported, tighten
carriage bolts on all frame members, except for End
Arch members to Cross Rails along base, side, and top.
Do not over tighten or oval tubing. After hardware is
tightened, insert plastic end plugs #14 (2 3/8”) & #15 (1
1/8”) into all open ends of frame members.
NOTE: Frame must be anchored before
installing any doors or cover.
Each Rhino Shelter 14x30x12 building comes with 14
EARTH CABLE ANCHORS 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 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. Hammer drills can be rented
at most home improvement or rent-all centers. 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 made inside the frame at
the interior corners of the unit, and midway along the
sides of the frames. Anchors secure the building to the
ground, as well as prevent spread of the frame over
time.
