See fig. 4.

Secure the ￿y to the tent:
• Turn the fly right side up and drape it	fig.8
over the top of the tent. Align the
orange web on the fly to the orange
web on the tent. The fly rods should
poke out over the doors. Reach under
the fly and wrap the Velcro® straps
through the openings in the sleeves
and around the poles 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 fig.11
• Grasp the web/rings on the vestibule and pull
out and away from the tent. Stake these down	fig.10
and adjust tension. See fig.12
Feature:
The Grand Manan has exceptional air flow.
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 slider
so that the cords are tight. See ￿g.13
Take down:	fig.12
Pull up stakes and open doors. Remove the fly and fly
rods. Push poles out of the sleeves. Collapse all poles
and stow in the pole bag. Fold the tent/fly. Roll up
both along with the pole bag towards a door. Stow
all in the main bag.

YOUR TENT IS READY!
