ASSEmBly INSTRuCTIONS
Tools Needed - two 7/16” wrenches, one 3/8” wrench, one Phillips screwdriver
and a rubber mallet.
ASSEMBLY NOTE: This ice shelter should be assembled in a ga-
rage 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 assembly.
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 low so you do not over tighten any nut and bolt
combinations.
ASSEMBLY NOTE: If a Tracking Kit is purchased with the shel-
ter, it should be mounted to the sled before assembly of the ice
shelter for convenience.
