NOTE:

Do not drop tent bag or pole bag on its end. Do not bounce tent bag on its end to get the tent out. These actions may cut the shock cord and/or damage the pole ends.

Assembly:

Unpack the tent bag. Unfold the tent and lay it out, with the floor on the ground with a grommeted web in each corner. Pull the tent into a rough rectangle. Do not stake down the tent just yet; but in windy conditions, stake down one corner that faces into the wind.

Assemble the shockcorded tent poles and fly rod.

Carefully seat each section. Try to keep the poles from snapping together as this can damage the ends.

At the front of the tent body at A, slide a pole diagonally across the tent, through the sleeves, to the opposite side B. Follow the seam from sleeve to sleeve. Push the pole, don’t pull it. Continue with the second pole through its

sleeves from C to D. See fig.1.

At the opposite corner, grasp the web and simultaneously push the pole to form an arc. Insert the post end into the grommet on the corner stake-out web. Repeat with the second pole. See fig.3.

Raise the poles over the tent and place it in the desired location.

Working your way around the

tent, attach all the clips from

the corners of fly to the poles.fig.4 See fig.4.

With the corner clips attached, square the tent. Use a

metal skewer to stake out each corner web. See fig.5.

Turn the fly right side up and drape it on the tent with the Eureka! logo over the door. Reach under the fly and wrap each Velcro® strap around a pole. See fig.8.
