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

•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
