SET-UP INSTRUCTIONS
Begin setting up your enclosure by unsnapping the
gray carrying strap and carefully unfolding the
panels to form a hexagon, as shown in FIGURE 2.
(NOTE: Model 8776 consists of eight panels which
will form an octagon or square when set up
properly.) The North States logo on the door panel
should face out.
When you have finished unfolding the panels,
there will be two unconnected panels arranged, as
shown in FIGURE 3. Make certain that the pin in
cylinder B is up as shown.
Begin connecting the panels together by gently
lifting up on panel 2 and setting the opening "A" (as
shown in FIGURE 4) over pin "B" located on panel 1.
Now locate the slot on the lower end of cylinder
"D", as shown in FIGURE 5. This slot tapers to an
opening that accommodates pin "C".
Gently press down on panel 2 while aligning pin
"C" with the slot in cylinder "D". While maintaining
downward pressure on panel 2, lift slightly on
panel 1, and slide pin "C" through the slot and into
the opening as shown.
EXTENSION INSTALLATION
Some models have two-panel extensions that are
colored appropriately for your yard and are available
either from your retailer or direct from
www.northstatesind.com
The extension contains two additional panels that
enable you to expand the size of your enclosure from
18.5 square feet to 34.4 square feet.
The extension is installed by following the "SET-UP
INSTRUCTIONS" that appear above.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLING SKID-RESISTANT PADS
Your North States enclosure can now be used on hard surfaces (hardwood oors, tile, linoleum, etc.) by
installing the enclosed skid-resistant pads.
1. Ensure that the surface of the yard panel is clean and dry prior to installing the pads.
2. Remove a single pad from the release paper as shown in FIGURE 6.
3. Place the adhesive side of the pad on the bottom edge of the yard panel approximately 2" from the
center of each hinge, as shown in FIGURE 7.
4. Repeat steps 2 & 3 for each of the remaining pads.
5. Maximum skid-resistance will be maintained by cleaning the bottoms of the pads periodically with a
water-dampened clean cloth.
