18. Secure the edge trim in place using the (13) #6 x 3/8" sheet
metal screws provided. A cordless drill and Phillips head bit is
recommended for this step, but is not necessary. SEE FIGURE
11
Note: Screws should be spaced evenly apart. This step does
mean you will put very small holes in your shelter skin to
keep the edge trim and skin securely attached to the sled lip.
This will in no way affect the performance of your shelter.
ADDITIONAL INSTALLATION
TOW ROPE
19. Locate the included 8 foot tow rope that was in the hardware
bag. To install the tow rope locate the two holes in the front
of the sled and push each end of the rope through a hole. Tie
a knot at each end of the rope to keep the rope from pulling
through the holes. This tow rope is designed for manual pull-
ing by hand only. DO NOT tow behind a motorized vehicle
with rope. For high-speed towing, you should purchase the
Eskimo Universal Tow Hitch accessory (11608).
GEAR NET
Included with you Eskimo Wide1
organized on and off the ice.
20.To install the gear net (15596) to the sled attach the hook and
loop retainers to the rear seat rail (15033). After attaching the
gear net to the seat rails, locate the 24 inch piece of edge
trim along with the remaining edge trim screws used earlier.
Secure the gear net by attaching it to the front of the sled lip
with the edge trim and edge trim screws. SEE FIGURE 12 ON

SET-UP AND TAKE-DOWN INSTRUCTIONS
SET-UP: From the outside or inside of shelter depending on
your preference, start with the bottom cross brace pole and
pull out all cross brace poles and snap into place. As you
pull out each cross brace pole and snap into place, flip all
cross braces over to the in use position. Secure all spreader
poles in between all cross brace poles by snapping C-clips
over cross brace poles.
Note: By removing the back spreader pole and the top
back spreader pole, you can flip the shelter back halfway
and use it as a wind break on nice days.
TAKE-DOWN: Close all window covers, vent covers and zip
door shut. Remove all spreader poles and place in bottom
of sled. Starting with the rear cross brace, push snap buttons
in and retract all cross brace poles to their shortest length.

lies on the ground/ice. Flip all poles back. Use extreme cau-
tion when flipping poles for transport position and make

Always make sure your ice shelter is completely dry before
storing for long periods of time. Storing your ice shelter
when damp or wet may cause mold and mildew damage.

• Clean all salt, moisture and debris from your shelter skin,
sled and poes. Wipe down poles with a wet rag.
Note: Lubricate the slide poles with a silicon spray at
least seasonally. Do not use oil or grease as a lubricant.
Note: Before attaching skin for use, spray silicon spray
inside of poles for ease of sliding.
• Store skin, poles an sled in a cool, dry place away from
