THE POLE IS LOCATED. EACH POLE RETAINING FIXTURE WILL HAVE A METAL RING
WITH ONE OR MORE RETAINING PINS ATTACHED TO IT (DEPENDANT UPON MODEL)
THE RETAINING PIN IS DESIGNED TO SLIDE UP INSIDE THE POLE ENDS THUS SECURING
THE POLE INTO PLACE.
FROM THE OPPOSITE END OF THE SAME POLE CAREFULLY PUSH THE REMAINING
POLE THROUGH THE SLEEVES SO IT ASSUMES A SEMI-CIRCULAR SHAPE. WHEN THE
END FERRULE IS LEVEL TO THE POLE RETAINING FIXTURE ON THIS SIDE, ENGAGE IT
INTO PLACE AS BEFORE. PLEASE NOTE ON SOME MODELS THERE MAY BE AN
ADJUSTABLE WEBBING LOOP CONNECTING THE RING TO THE BASE OF THE
FLYSHEET. THIS LOOP SHOULD BE OPENED UP TO ITS FULL LENGTH WHILE ENGAGING
THE PIN ON THE RING INTO THE POLE END. ONCE THE PIN IS INSERTED THE WEBBING
LOOP CAN BE TIGHTENED SO THE POLE IS FIRMLY LOCKED INTO THE POLE END.
AT THIS POINT YOU MAY FIND IT EASIER FOR THE SECOND PERSON PRESENT TO GO
INSIDE THE TENT AND PUSH UP FROM THE CENTRE HOLDING THE TENT UP AND
THEREFORE MAKING IT MUCH EASIER AND QUICKER TO LOCATE THE POLE ENDS
ONTO THE PIN SECTIONS.
REPEAT THIS WITH THE REMAINING CENTRAL DOME POLES.
ENSURE CARE IS TAKEN DURING THIS PROCEDURE, NOT TO ALLOW THE ENDS OF THE
SHOCKCORDED POLES TO DAMAGE SLEEVES OR FLYSHEET MATERIAL.
RUNNING DOWN THE SEAM, FROM THE SLEEVE, ON EACH SIDE OF THE TENT YOU
WILL NOTICE THREE FLYSHEET TO MAIN POLE WEBBING CLIPS. ALL THESE, SHOULD
SIMPLY BE CLIPPED TO THE MAIN SHOCKCORDED POLES ALLOWING THE FLYSHEET
TO TAKE FULL SHAPE.
PLEASE NOTE THAT THESE ARE NOT INTENDED AS GUY POINT
FIXINGS
IF IT IS WINDY YOU MAY FIND IT HELPFUL TO TEMPORALLY PEG OUT THE CENTRAL
DOME WITH THE GUYS PROVIDED, PLEASE REMEMBER THOUGH THESE MAY NEED TO
BE ADJUSTED OR RE PEGGED LATER
.
5: NOW LOCATE THE THREE SETS OF BEDROOM POLES FOR EACH OF THE BEDROOM
SECTIONS OF THE TENT, AGAIN, THESE CAN BE IDENTIFIED BY CHECKING THE POLE
SLEEVE END TRIM ON THE LOWER BASE POLE SLEEVES ON THE BEDROOM SECTIONS.
STARTING WITH THE POLE SLEEVE SECTIONS NEAREST TO THE MAIN DOME THREAD
THE RELEVANT POLE THROUGH THE SLEEVE SECTIONS FROM ONE SIDE OF THE
FLYSHEET TO THE OTHER, SO THERE IS AN EQUAL LENGTH OF POLE PROTRUDING
FROM EITHER SIDE OF THE SLEEVE ENDS. LOCATE THIS POLE INTO PLACE AS
PREVIOUSLY INSTRUCTED AND THEN REPEAT FOR THE REMAINING BEDROOM POLE
ON THIS SIDE OF THE TENT.
RUNNING DOWN THE SEAM, FROM THE SLEEVE, ON EACH SIDE OF THE BEDROOM
SECTION YOU WILL NOTICE THREE FLYSHEET TO MAIN POLE WEBBING CLIPS. ALL
THESE, SHOULD SIMPLY BE CLIPPED TO THE BEDROOM SHOCKCORDED POLES
ALLOWING THE FLYSHEET TO TAKE FULL SHAPE.
PLEASE NOTE THAT THESE ARE NOT
INTENDED AS GUY POINT FIXINGS
REPEAT POINT 5 FOR THE REMAINING TWO BEDROOM SECTIONS.
6: LOCATE ONE OF THE FIBERGLASS ROOF PORCH POLES WITH METAL ANGLED
SECTIONS ON EACH END.
CHECK AND MATCH THE COLOUR CODING ON THE POLE AND SLEEVE TRIM, THEN
THREAD THE POLE THROUGH THE RELEVANT SLEEVE SECTIONS FOUND ON THE ROOF
OF THE EXTENDED PORCH OF YOUR TENT. REPEAT THIS FOR THE REMAINING
FIBERGLASS ROOF PORCH POLE WITH METAL ANGLED SECTIONS ON EACH END.
THE METAL ANGLED BRACKETS SHOULD BE CLEAR OF THE SLEEVES AT BOTH ENDS.
