STEP 1:
Spread tent out flat, floor side down.
STEP 2:
Extend fiberglass tent poles by pulling out each section
and placing it into the metal ferrule connectors. You will have five
poles. The two longest poles (A) are the main tent poles. The next
pair of poles (B) will be used on the sides of the tent. The single
pole with pre-bent ferrules (C) will be used for the front awning on
the tent fly.
STEP 3:
While making
sure sleeves are in line
with each other, slide the
main fiberglass tent poles
(A) through the sleeves
that are opposite each
other on the roof of the
tent. Straighten the
sleeves along the fiberglass sections. Position poles so that they
form an “X” across the tent.
STEP 4:
Starting at the back of the tent,
place the ferrule at the end of the poles
onto the pins located on the rings at the
edge of the tent.
STEP 5:
(Please read and follow
IMPORTANT SAFETY
WARNING
that appears before Step 1.) While one adult holds the
end of the tent pole firmly in place on the pin at the rear of the tent,
the other adult should now go into the front door of the tent
and gently lift the roof at the crossed tent poles off the
ground. When the tent and poles are raised, the first adult who is
at the rear of the tent, goes to the front of the tent, flexes the
fiberglass pole and places the metal ferrule at the end of the main
tent pole onto the pin located on the ring at the base of the tent.
Repeat step for the other main tent pole. Clip
plastic hooks to the fiberglass frame poles.
Locate the fabric ties
attached to the
center of the tent
roof and tie both
poles together.
STEP 6:
Stake down tent by
inserting the steel stakes through
the metal rings and stake loops
attached at the base of the
tent. Hammer stakes into
ground at a 45° angle by
using a hammer or mallet.
Make sure to pull tent out even
and tight.
IMPORTANT:
WE ADVISE YOU TO ASSEMBLE THE
TENT ONCE BEFORE GOING CAMPING TO BECOME
FAMILIAR WITH THE ASSEMBLY OF THE TENT.
NOTE: PLEASE LOOK AT THE REPLACEMENT
PARTS DIAGRAM TO SEE HOW YOUR FRAME IS
ASSEMBLED.
TO PROLONG THE LIFE OF THE TENT FLOOR,
SELECT A LEVEL, CLEAN AREA FOR THE CAMPSITE.
TO PREVENT DAMAGE TO THE ZIPPER, UNZIP THE
DOORS TO ALLOW AIR TO ENTER THE TENT.
TO IMPROVE THE WEATHER RESISTANCE OF YOUR
TENT, IT IS ADVISABLE TO USE SEAM SEALER TO
COAT ALL EXPOSED SEAMS. YOU SHOULD APPLY
ONLY TO THE INSIDE SEAMS OF THE TENT AND
UNDERSIDE OF THE TENT FLY. IF APPLIED TO THE
OUTSIDE OF SEAMS, DISCOLORATION OF YOUR
TENT MAY OCCUR. SEAM SEALER IS AVAILABLE IN
THE CAMPING SECTION OF ANY LOCAL SPORTING
GOODS STORE.
WARNING:
During assembly of the main room and
side room tent pole, the tent poles are in tension. If the
poles are not held firmly in place by adults during assembly,
the tension in the poles may cause them to break or one end
of the pole to flip up, which could cause serious injury to you
or others involved in assembling the tent. To avoid this
hazard:
• DO HAVE two adults involved in assembling the tent.
• DO HAVE one adult hold the end of the tent pole in
place in the grommets at the crossed tent poles. When
the tent and poles are raised, the first adult who is at
the rear of the tent, goes to the front of the tent and
completes the pole connection into the grommets at the
front of the tent.
Failure to follow this warning could cause serious injury to
you or others involved in assembling this tent.

STEP 7:
(Please read and follow the
IMPORTANT SAFETY
WARNING
that appears before Step 1.) To assemble the side
rooms, locate the longer remaining pair of fiberglass poles (B).
Insert one of the pole sections through pole sleeve at the top of the
side room. With an adult on each end of the side room pole,
gently flex the pole into an arch and place the metal tips at the end
of the side room poles onto the pin located on the ring at the base
of the tent. Clip plastic hooks to the fiberglass frame poles.
Repeat the same procedure for the remaining side room.
STEP 8:
Place fly over tent so the
front awning is located over the
front of the tent. Attach the fly to
the tent by hooking the
S-hooks located at the fly
corners to the metal rings at the
base of the tent.
WARNING:
Elastic cords can snap back and hit your eye.
To reduce the risk of injury to you and others:
• Keep your body and face clear.
• Do not over stretch elastic cords.
• Maintain firm grip on hook.
• Pull the hook toward you; if it slips it will spring away from you.
• Make sure hook is fully clipped to tent before releasing.
• Wear protective eyewear during tent assembly.
Your failure to follow this warning could cause serious injury or
permanent disability.
STEP 9:
Insert the fly awning (C) pole into the sleeve at the front
of the fly. Insert the pole ends onto the pins at the base of the tent.
STEP 10:
Stake down the vestibule by inserting the stakes
through the stake loops and hammer the stakes into ground at a
45° angle.
STEP 11:
Fasten the Velcro
fasteners on the underside of the fly
to the fiberglass poles at all locations.
STEP 12:
There are guy ropes located on the front of the
awning and at the ends and back of the tent. Extend the guy
ropes and make a loop at
opposite end of guy rope by
using the slider (as shown)
and place the loop over the
steel stake. Adjust slider to
make guy rope tight and
stake to the ground at a
45° angle.
STEP 13:
A divider curtain has been provided with this tent. To
attach it push the hooks through the corresponding loops on the
inside of the tent. A mesh gear loft is also included for the tent
ceiling to hold small items within easy reach.
NOTE:
To take down tent, follow steps above in the reverse
order. Be sure to leave door and windows unzipped. Place stakes
into stake bag and poles into pole bag, which are provided. The
tent should be folded into equal parts toward the center of the
tent to distribute the bulk. Fold fly and lay on top of tent. Start a
small tight roll, the width of your carry bag, at the end opposite
the doors. Roll tent toward doors to allow air to escape. Once
rolled, tie a string or rope around tent to hold into place. Place
tent and stake bag into carry bag. Make sure tent is clean and
dry before storing.
