7. Attach the fly to the tent. Turn the fly assembly
over and align it so that the fly pole ends point to the
doors. Grasp the corners of the of the fly and drag
them up and over the roof poles to completely cover
the roof. ( This is much easier with two people. ) The
end of the poles should point out over the doors.
At the corners of the tent, reach under the fly and attach
the hook & loop straps to the wall poles just below the
elbow and down the length of the wall poles, securing
the fly in place. See fig 11.
4. Raise the tent. Start on one side and insert
the wall poles into the the elbows. At the
bottom of each pole, insert the pin/ring
(attached to the corner web) into the
bottom of each pole. See fig 5.
Repeat on the other side until the
tent is at full height and

5. Attach all clips to the wall poles. See fig 6.
Stake the tent down through the corner web loops. Stake opposite corners while applying tension
to smooth the floor wrinkles. It works best to do this before you add the fly. See fig 7.

2. Assemble the shock
corded poles and divide
according to size and shape. Take
care; make sure that each pole
section is fully seated into the
next. Do not allow the sections to
snap together as this can damage
the ends. See fig 2.

6. Attach the fly to the poles. Lay out the fly with the inside side up, on ground at the
front of the tent, near the door.
Fit the fly poles into the pockets sewn to the hem. The poles form an x crossing in the center of
the fly. Secure the fly to the poles by wrapping all five of the hook and loop fasteners around
the fly poles. See fig 8, 9 and 10.
3. Insert both roof poles into the sleeves sewn on the tent body. They should
run corner to corner crossing in the center.
Fit one end of each into a nylon elbow attached to the roof corners at A and B. Move
to the opposite side, arch the poles and again fit into the nylon elbows at C and D.
See fig 3 and 4.
Guy Out: This tent has very large straight walls that act differently in high winds. If there are
high winds, carefully follow the guy out instructions on the back side of this sheet.

Awning: If it's raining, lower both corner awning poles to create run-off channels. Loosen
shockcord on each corner pole, lower the angle of each pole and re-tighten guy lines.
fig 3
Power Port: Open zipper and run extension cord through opening. Close zipper so that it
rests next to the extension cord. Make sure the zipper cover is not twisted or tucked. The
cover must lay flat against the outside of the tent to keep out rain.

NOTE: One arm of each elbow has interior
ribs. The roof pole inserts into this ribbed
arm. The wall pole inserts into the plain
arm.
Sweep Out: Inside, at the bottom center of each
door is a sewn-in web loop. Pull this loop to the
