Stake the tent down through the corner web loops. Stake opposite corners while applying tension to smooth the floor wrinkles. It works best to do this before you add the fly. See fig 7.

7.Attach the fly to the tent. Turn the fly assembly over and align it so that the fly pole ends point to the doors. Grasp the corners of the of the fly and drag them up and over the roof poles to completely cover the roof. ( This is much easier with two people. ) The end of the poles should point out over the doors.
At the corners of the tent, reach under the fly and attach |
| |
the hook & loop straps to the wall poles just below the |
| |
elbow and down the length of the wall poles, securing |
| |
the fly in place. See fig 11. |

| NOTE: One arm of each elbow has interior |
|
| ribs. The roof pole inserts into this ribbed |
|
| arm. The wall pole inserts into the plain |
|
| arm. |
6.Attach the fly to the poles. Lay out the fly with the inside side up, on ground at the front of the tent, near the door.
Fit the fly poles into the pockets sewn to the hem. The poles form an x crossing in the center of the fly. Secure the fly to the poles by wrapping all five of the hook and loop fasteners around the fly poles. See fig 8, 9 and 10.

Awning: If it's raining, lower both corner awning poles to create
Power Port: Open zipper and run extension cord through opening. Close zipper so that it rests next to the extension cord. Make sure the zipper cover is not twisted or tucked. The cover must lay flat against the outside of the tent to keep out rain.

Collapse all poles and stow. Fold the tent onto itself then fold the fly and lay it on tent. Roll up both towards the open door and stow.
