3) Attach the side hooks to the bottom of the truck as shown below. Leave a couple inches of play in the side
straps.
STEP 4: Raising Tent
1) Join the Awning Poles.
NOTE
: The tailgate awning pole is longer than the cab awning pole.
2) Slide the Cab Awning Pole through the front awning sleeve. Slide the Tailgate Awning Pole through the
back awning sleeve.
3) Join the Main Support Poles.
4) Unzip the door and go inside the tent. Install the front Main Support Pole (closest to the cab) by inserting the
tip of a Main Support Pole over the locking pin on the mounting rail (see photo below). While grasping the
pole firmly, insert the opposite tip of the Main Support Pole into front locking pin on the other Mounting Rail.
The pole now creates an arc across the bed of the truck. Slide the pole into place on the tent. CAUTION: DO
NOT FORCE THE POLES. If needed, you can loosen the side straps to give more slack in the tent.
