2.1.5 Final Push to Full Height
1. With smaller models, the shelter is now ready to push to full height. With larger shelters, the four poles must be
moved inward towards a second set of four red flags (2), one quad closer to the center of the shelter. People should
alternately move inward to this new push point as shown in Figure 2-5. This action will evenly distribute the weight of
the shelter (1).

2. People are now in position to push the shelter to full height.
3. Check for obstructions before starting the final push to full height.
4. Prior to the final push, each person should check that the doors are not caught on any hubs or between the struts
(see Figure 2-6). Fabric that is snagged will prevent the shelter from easily pushing to full height.

5. Return to the push pole and prepare to lift the shelter to its full height.
If setting up during high winds, position additional people on the windward side along the length of the
shelter. Unravel the wind lines on both short ends and at least two wind lines on the windward side.
Have people hold onto the wind lines while shelter is being erected.
NOTE
6. All together, in a coordinated and evenly effort, everyone should lift the shelter until the side walls come to a vertical
position.
