How
to Set up your SportsShade:
(Please refer to pictures on the box or website http://www.doglogic.com/sportsshade.htm):
1.
HOOK. Attach the yellow straps
around or to a support. The yellow straps have
clip hooks on the ends to clip together to form a loop or
attach directly to a support object. Recommended supports
are around are: fences,
luggage racks of vehicles, trees and eyebolts attached to
walls or structures.
2. PULL. Pull out on the handle
of the SportsShade housing until the awning material
is completely extended and can pull out no further. SportsShade must be
completely extended to be held in place by the guy lines.
3.
SWING. Pull down on the legs,
which are held horizontal by black clips and swing them
vertically into place.
The legs should be perpendicular to the housing for
correct use. The
SportsShade housing and legs should be placed at a slight
incline to keep the awning extended while placing the guy-lines
with stakes (See picture 4 on the box).
4. STAKE. One person should hold
the SportsShade upright until the guy lines have been staked
down. Pull
each guy line until it is fully extended at
an approximate angle of 45 degrees from the support legs. Place the stake perpendicular
to the ground and drive it into the soil until the collar
is touching soil. Do not use stakes
in sand or mostly sandy soil. It is recommended to
use SportsShade weight bags (sold separately). Please note
that Inventive Ideas is not responsible damage or injury
cause by any modification made to the SportsShade.
To
take SportsShade down: Pull up on the stakes
and hold on to them until they are fully retracted into
the housing. Do
not let go of them or they may cause damage or injury. Use the 4 steps listed
above in reverse order.
Windy Conditions: During
windy conditions it may be difficult getting the awning
material to retract do to a ballooning effect. In this case –
try putting the housing on the ground and letting the awning
go down into the housing or try to line the housing and
the awning up parallel to the wind direction and then retracting.
Warnings:
- Do
not use in winds or gusts in excess of 25 mph.
- Do
not place grills or cooking devises beneath the shade.
- Do
not use during stormy weather.
- Improper
use may result in damage or injury.
- SportsShade
will not hold snow loads.
