• Turn the fly right side up and drape

 

it over the top of the tent. Align the

 

 

 

orange web on the fly to the orange

 

 

 

Component List: 1 Tent, 2 Tent Poles, 1 Carry Bag, 1 Pole Bag, 1 Stake Bag w/ Stakes and Guys, 1 Rain Fly, 1 Fly Rod

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.

Raise the tent:

Unroll and unfold the tent and lay it on the ground. If it’s windy, stake down one front corner into wind.

Assemble all of the shock corded poles. Keep the pole sections from snapping together, as this can damage the pole ends. Make certain each plain end has been properly seated into the metal ferrule. Lay the poles side by side and divide according to length. Long for the tent and short for the fly.

Insert one of the two long

poles into each sleeve. The poles run corner to corner across at the center through the sleeves . See fig 1 & 2

Insert the post end of a pole into a grommet on the corner stake-out web. See fig.3

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 to maintain tension. Do this again with

the second long pole and the other pair of corner webs. See fig.4

The tent is now freestanding. Place the tent in the desired location and stake it down through the corner web loops. Stake the opposite corners while applying tension to square the tent and smooth any floor wrinkles. It works best to do this before you add the fly. See fig.5

Assemble the ￿y:

Once the tent is securely staked down, spread the rain fly out, upside down. Find the web pockets at the top of the clear window. Place the ends of the fly rod into the pockets.

Wrap the Velcro® tab around the rod to hold in place. See Fig.6 & 7

web on the tent. The fly rod should

poke out over the doors. Reach

under the fly and wrap the Velcro®

straps through the openings in the

sleeves and around the pole to

secure the fly to the tent frame. See

fig. 8.

Also attach the wide Velcro® straps to the patches on the sleeves at each corner elbow. See fig. 9

Locate the long adjustable web/buckle assemblies on the underside at each corner of the fly. Attach these buckles to their mates on the corner stake-out webs and adjust to proper tension. See fig.10

There are also web/ring assemblies on the bottom at each corner of the fly. Slide these rings over the same stakes that hold the corner web loops. Adjust as necessary. See

Detach the web rings from the stakes. Roll up the

 

 

 

 

 

 

fly sides for 4-way ventilation. Secure in place with

 

 

 

 

 

 

the attached loops and toggles.

 

 

 

 

 

 

NOTE: In strong winds, tie extra cords ( included ) to

 

 

 

 

 

 

the storm rings on the ￿y and stake down. Adjust the

fly rod. Push poles out of the sleeves. Collapse all

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

poles and stow in the pole bag. Fold the tent/fly.
