Assembly Instructions for

Copper Canyon 1312 & 1512

Component List:

1 Tent Body with Guy Ropes, 6 Wall Poles, 3 Roof Poles, 1 Fly Pole, 2-3 Awning Poles, 1 Fly, 1 Awning, 1 Divider Curtain, 1 Carry Bag, 1 Stake Bag/Stakes, 1 Pole Bag

1.Remove from the carry bag and separate all the components. Unroll and unfold the fabric top side up, on a clean, dry space and open the doors. If windy, stake down the windward corner. See fig 1.

4.Raise the tent. Start on one side and insert black wall poles into the corner elbows. At the bottom of each pole, insert the pin/ring (attached to the corner web) into the bottom of each pole. Next, install a

tan pole at the center. With the tans, it works best to insert

the ring/pin first and then

 

fit the pole into the

 

elbow. See fig 5.

 

Repeat on the other side until the tent

fig 5

is at full height and freestanding.

7.Attach the fly to the tent. Turn the fly assembly over and align it so that the pole ends point to the windows. 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 windows.

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.

 

At the bottom/corners of the tent, attach the shockcorded J-hooks

fig 12

to the nylon rings on the corner web loops. See fig 12.

 

8. Stake out the attached guy ropes and adjust tension with the

 

in-line sliders.

 

9. Install the awning. Open the zippered flaps on the fly. See fig

2.Assemble the shock corded poles and divide according to size and shape. Take care; make sure that each pole section is fully seated into the next. Do not allow the sections to snap together as this can damage the ends. See fig 2.

5. Attach all clips to the wall poles. See fig 6.

Stake the tent down through the corner web loops. Stake opposite corners while applying tension to smooth the floor wrinkles. Next, align the center poles and stake down. Do this before you add the fly. See fig 7.

13. Reach under the fly and clip the awning to the shockcords

 

 

on the corner elbows. See fig 14.

 

 

Tie a loop at each end of the guy ropes. Fit the pins

 

 

of the awning poles into the grommets at the hem

 

 

of the awning. Hang a guy rope loop over the pole

 

 

pin, stake the rope out and adjust tension as

 

 

needed. See fig 15.

3.Insert both black roof poles into the sleeves sewn on the tent body. They should run corner to corner crossing in the center.

Insert the gray roof pole, front to back, into the tan color coded sleeves from E to F. See

6.Attach the fly to the pole. Lay out the fly with the inside side up, on ground at the front of the tent. Fit the fly pole into the pockets sewn to the hem. The pole runs from side to side down the center of the fly. Secure the fly to the pole by wrapping the hook and loop fasteners around the fly pole. See fig 8, 9 and 10.

Guy Out: This tent has very large straight walls that act differently in high winds. If there are high winds, carefully follow the guy out instructions on the back side of this sheet.

Awning: If it's raining, lower both corner awning poles to create run-off channels. Loosen shockcord on each corner pole, lower the angle of each pole and re-tighten guy lines.

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.

Take Down: Pull up all stakes. Release the fly's hook & loop straps. Remove fly. Remove fly poles. Remove clips from wall poles and pull poles off of the pins. Remove roof poles. 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.

Sweep Out: Inside, at the bottom center of each

 

door is a sewn-in web loop. Pull this loop to the

 

outside and stake it down to provide a ready

 

exit for floor sweepings. See fig 16.
