Remove Slack From Cover Rope
Go over the entire outer edge of the cover rope packet
and adjust the excess material around the end so it is
not bunched up. Spread excess material evenly along
the outer edge. Once cover is pulled tight and even, tie
off the rope end to the turnbuckle. All slack should be
out of the rope at this time. Repeat this step on both
ends of the cover. Tighten the turnbuckle to tighten the
cover. This step may need to be repeated to ensure a
snug and centered fit.
Main Cover Turnbuckle secured to Base Foot
Step 3. Lace Cover To Base Cross Rails - When the
cover is completely aligned secure the cover to the
bottom tie-down cross rail using the rope provided. Start
at one end and tie off the rope to the cross rail. Lace the
rope through the grommets in the cover and back under
the tie-down cross rail. Repeat this on the opposite side
Pay close attention to how tight the cover is put onto the
frame. It should be tight enough so it does not flap
around in the wind, but not so tight that it tears the
material cover. The fabric backed PE fabric of Rhino
Shelter units does not stretch. If you pull it so tight that
the fabric is stretched, a small amount of additional
stress from wind or contact will cause premature tears
and failure. Only tighten cover enough to remove
valleys between arch assemblies. Do Not over tighten.
Step 4. Retighten the turnbuckles on both the cover and
end panels. Retighten the rope holding the main cover
to the bottom cross rail. Both the cover and the end
panels should be checked and tightened on a
monthly basis.

ROLL UP DOOR KIT
A Roll Up Door Kit is included with Barn style buildings.
Rhino Shelter doors are manufactured with a pocket on
the bottom edge along the width axis. . Combine the
two pieces of 1 1/8” diameter tubing provided with the
machine thread screw. Place one 1 1/8” plastic end plug
into one end of the tube assembly. Fill the tube with
sand or comparable weight material, and place the other
plastic plug into the end of the tube. The additional
weight will reduce door movement in wind, and assist it
in rolling up. Place the weight tube into the bottom edge
pocket in the door. Center the weighted tube between
the edges of the door.
Tie the rope provided onto the end arch under the roll up
door material over the end arch. Thread the rope under
the door edge to the outside of the unit
