STEP 6: To raise the tent, one person should go to each of the front corners of the

tent. Flex the fiberglass poles into an upward position, forming two arches and place

the ferrules at the ends of the poles onto the pin located at corners of the tent.

STEP 2: Stake tent to the ground by inserting metal stakes through

the rings located at each tent corner. Hammer the stakes into the

ground at a 45°, making sure to pull tent floor out even and tight.

Continue to stake down all intermediate stake loops.

STEP 3: Extend each fiberglass pole by pulling out

each section and placing the ends of the pole sections

into the metal connecting ferrules. The four longest poles

(A) are the main “X” poles, for each end of the tent.

The Next longest pole is the center hoop pole (B). The

two longer remaining poles are the front and back hoop

poles (C) The two shortest (D) poles are for the door

awnings on the fly.

STEP 4: While making sure the sleeves are in line with

each other, slide each main poles (A) through the green

sleeves that are opposite each other on the roof of the

tent. Straighten the sleeves along the fiberglass sections.

Position the poles so that they form an “X” at each end

of the tent. Be sure that the poles go through the loops

at top of the tent where the poles cross.

STEP 5: Go to the middle of the tent and place the ends of the

4 main poles onto the pins located on the ring.

STEP 7: Clip the plastic hooks to the fiberglass frame poles.

STEP 8: Repeat steps 6 and 7 for at the other end of the tent.

STEP 9: Locate the longer remaining fiberglass pole (B) with the white

tape at the end. Insert the pole through the off white pole sleeve at the

middle of the tent. With an adult on each end of the pole, gently flex

the pole into an arch and place the ferrules at the end of the pole

onto the pin at the base of the tent. Clip the plastic hooks to the pole.

STEP 10: Locate the front and back hoop poles (C) with the Yellow tape at the

ends. Insert one of the poles through the tan pole sleeve above the door at one

end of the tent. With an adult on each end of the pole, gently flex the pole into

an arch and place the ferrules at the end of the pole onto the pin at the base of

the tent. Clip the plastic hooks to the pole. Repeat at the other end of the tent.

STEP 9: Unfold fly and place over tent so the tan pole sleeves are

located over the two doors. Attach the fly to the tent by hooking the

S-hooks located at the edges of the fly to the rings at the base of the tent.

STEP 10: Fasten the Velcro and fabric ties on the underside

of the fly to the fiberglass poles at all locations.

STEP 11: Insert the fly pole (D) into the sleeve at the edge fly

awning, over the door. Flex the fly pole and insert each end

into the reinforced metal grommets located on either side of

the front door. Repeat at the other end of the tent

STEP 12: Guy ropes have been provided for the tent. Extend

each of the guy ropes and make a loop at the opposite end

by using the slider (as shown). Place the loop over tent stake

and stake to the ground. Adjust the slider to make guy rope tight.

NOTE: Toggles and loops are attached to the fly to allow for multiple ventilation

options in good weather. Please refer to online photos and videos to see the

various options

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.

NOTE: To take down tent, follow steps above in the reverse order. Be sure to

leave doors 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.
