3. Operating Instructions

3.1. Securing Your Pet

Always ensure the door is properly closed and the secure lock mechanism is engaged when your pet is inside the kennel. Regularly check the lock for proper function to prevent accidental escapes.

3.2. Roof Cover Utilization

The included PE fabric roof cover provides essential protection for your pet from various weather conditions. It is designed to shield against:

• Rain: Keeps the interior dry during rainfall.
• UV Rays: Reduces sun exposure, protecting your pet from harmful UV radiation and providing shade on hot days.
• Dust: Helps keep the enclosure cleaner by minimizing dust accumulation.
• Light Snow: Offers protection during minor snowfall.

4. Maintenance

4.1. Cleaning

Regularly inspect and clean the kennel to maintain a hygienic environment for your pet. The galvanized metal and steel mesh can be wiped down with a damp cloth and mild, pet-safe cleaning solution. The PE fabric roof cover can be cleaned with water and a soft brush.

4.2. Seasonal Care

While the roof cover offers protection against light snow, it is strongly recommended to remove the roof cover during periods of heavy snowfall. Accumulation of heavy snow can put excessive stress on the roof frame and potentially cause damage.

5. Troubleshooting

5.1. Stability Issues

If the kennel appears unstable, ensure all ground stakes are fully inserted into the ground and all frame connections are tightly secured. Verify that the kennel is placed on a level surface.

5.2. Roof Cover Water Pooling

If water collects on the roof cover, check that the cover is stretched tautly and evenly across the frame. Adjust the ties or fasteners as needed to create proper tension and allow for water runoff.
