ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Step 1
Select a sheltered camp site protected from the wind that will not allow water to pond under the tent floor.
Clear a level area of all stones, twigs, etc.
Lay out tent with doors facing the desired direction.
Open doors and windows to allow air inside when standing tent up.
WARNING
Failing to open doors and windows will put excessive stress on the fabric as the tent is raised and may
cause damage. This damage is not covered by warranty.
Peg down the corners of the tent. See Figure . Peg down all remaining peg loops.
Join tent poles sections together ensuring each section is firmly secured into the next. See Figure .
Step 2 Install the ridge poles
Select the three ridge poles (), slide one ridge pole through the sleeve that runs along the centre of the roof. Slide
the remaining ridge poles through the loops along both sides of the roof. Make sure that you do not miss any loops
including the webbing loops . See figure .
WARNING
Do not force poles through the sleeves as this may damage the sleeve. Check to ensure the pole does
not snag when sliding it through the sleeve.
Select the six elbow poles (7) and connect them to the ends of the three ridge poles (). The three elbow poles (7)
to be attached to the front of the tent need to be pushed up through the fabric socks in the awning roof. The end of
the elbow pole with the hole in the side should point to the ground. With the webbing ties attached to the tent tie a
knot onto the D rings of the elbow pole. Please note to leave an equal distance at the front and the back of the tent
between the tent and poles.
Step 3 Install the upright poles
Select the three corner upright poles () and connect them to the corner elbow poles except the elbow at the front
door , use pole # with the adjustment. Have the two adjustable centre upright poles () ready to connect to the
centre ridge elbow poles once the tent has been raised . See figure .
