Adjust the Height

post upward until push button locks
into place. Raise each post one
notch at a time, making sure all four
posts are level before proceeding to
the next notch. (Fig. 6 & 7)

NOTE: If installing the screen house

panels to your shelter, skip the following

steps and proceed to “Install the Screen House”on the back page.

1. Select a smooth, level site for your shelter.
2. With two persons standing at diagonal corners of the struc-
ture, grab the leg, and pull out to unfold frame. (Fig. 1)

fit for draping shelter top over frame.

2. Attach hook & loop fasteners, located on corners of shelter
top, to four corners of frame post. (Fig. 2A)

then insert metal hook into hole on post.

loops to secure. (Fig. 12, 13, & 14).
