ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

FOR THE GRAND MANAN

TOUR TENT

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

NOTE: This is a large family style tent and we recommend that you have two people for setup. 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.

•Lay the poles side by side and divide according to length. 2 long [11 section] for the tent and 1 short [9 section] for the screen hoop.

•Assemble the shock corded

poles as you work. Try to keep the pole sections from snapping together, as this can damage the ends. Make certain each plain end has been properly seated into its

metal ferrule. Slide one longfig.1 pole through each tent

sleeve. The poles run from corner to corner, cross at the center through the sleeves. The gray pole fits to gray web. See fig 1 & 2

Stake it down:

•The tent is now freestanding. Place it in the desired location and use the yellow stakes to stake it down through the corner web loops. Stake diagonally opposite corners while applying tension to square the tent and smooth any floor wrinkles.

Pull out the web loops from the screen room, use the skewers and stake them down. It works best to do this before you add the fly. See fig.6.

Secure the ￿y to the frame:
• Reach under the fly and wrap	fig.8	fig.9
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. Pull
these out and away from the tent and use
skewers to stake down. Adjust as
necessary. See fig.11.
• Grasp the web/rings on the door, pull
these out and away from the tent. Stake	fig.10	fig.11
down and adjust the tension. Repeat at
the rear of the tent with the vestibule. See
fig.12
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.
Feature:
The Grand Manan provides exceptional air flow.
Detach the web rings from the stakes. Roll up
the fly sides for 4-way ventilation. Secure in

•Insert the post end of a pole into the web grommet.

•At the opposite end, with the pole in one hand and the web in the other, feed the pole up, bending it evenly along its length to create an

arc. Make sure the ferrules do not get caught on the sleeves. Place the post end into this grommet to

maintain tension. Repeat with thefig.3 other tent pole. See fig. 3.

•Assemble and slide the screen room hoop over the tent poles and through the front sleeve. Fit the post into the outside grommet on same front webs as the tent poles. See fig. 4.

•Attach all the pole clips to the hoop. See fig. 5.

Attach the ￿y to the tent:

•Once the tent is securely staked, spread the rain fly out, right side up. Start at one end and drag the fly up and over the top of the tent. It only fits one way. Align the front door of the fly to the front entrance of the screen room. See fig.7.
