SAFETY WARNING -
DOs AND DO NOTs
EVERYONE WHO USES THIS TENT SHOULD READ THIS MANUAL AND BECOME FAMILIAR WITH ALL
SAFETY WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE USE, ASSEMBLY, CARE, MAINTENANCE,
AND STORAGE. KEEP THIS MANUAL SO YOU CAN REFER TO IT LATER.
CARBON MONOXIDE GAS WILL KILL YOU
Stoves, heaters, grills, lantern, candles, and other fuel-burning devices that burn propane, natural gas, charcoal, kerosene, coal, or other fuels
produce a toxic gas called carbon monoxide. Because carbon monoxide gas is invisible, odorless, and colorless, a dangerous level of carbon
monoxide gas can accumulate in a tent which cannot be detected by sight, smell, or taste. For these reasons:
• DO NOT use matches, lighters, stoves, heaters, grills, lanterns, candles, cooking equipment, or other fuel-burning devices inside or near a tent.
• DO NOT build fires inside or near a tent.
• DO NOT leave campfires unattended.
Your failure to follow this warning will cause death, serious injury, or permanent disability to you or others.
• DO NOT leave children unattended inside a tent or in camp.
• DO NOT allow children to assemble a tent.
• DO NOT allow children to enter or exit a tent except through the door.
• DO NOT allow children to remain in a closed-up tent on hot days.
Your failure to follow this warning will cause death, serious injury, or permanent disability to your children.
PROTECT YOUR CHILDREN
This tent is made with flame resistant fabric which meets CPAI-84 specification. IT IS NOT FIREPROOF. The fabric will burn if left in continuous
contact with any flame source. The application of any foreign substance to the tent fabric may render the flame-resistant properties ineffective.
Your failure to follow this warning could cause death, serious injury, or permanent disability to you or others.
FLAMMABILITY WARNING KEEP ALL FLAME AND HEAT SOURCES AWAY FROM THIS TENT FABRIC
1. Do not pitch tent near open fire.
2. Do not leave campfire unattended.
3. Do not leave children unattended inside a tent.
4. Do not use heating, lighting or cooking equipment with open flames in or near tents.
5. Do not use other than recommended water repellent compounds on your tent.
6. Do not spray the tent with insecticide.
7. Do not store tent on concrete floor.
CAMPING DO’S AND DON’TS
DO NOT...
1. Always extinguish campfire before leaving area.
2. Exercise care when using electricity and lighting in and near tents.
3. Make certain your tent is properly ventilated in all weather conditions. In extreme weather conditions, snow could obstruct airflow and
cause asphyxiation unless cleared frequently.
4. Anchor your tent securely to provide additional security from changing climatic conditions. Snow pegs, skis and/or heavy rocks may
be necessary to supplement tent stakes and guy cords.
5. Take your tent down and store properly after camping.
DO...
DO NOT LEAVE YOUR TENT SET UP IN DIRECT SUNLIGHT LONGER THAN NECESSARY. THE SUN’S ULTRAVIOLET
(UV) LIGHT DEGRADES ALMOST EVERY FABRIC AND MATERIAL. IF LEFT IN SUNLIGHT FOR PROLONGED PERIODS
OF TIME, FABRIC WILL FADE AND WEAKEN. DO NOT STORE TENT ON CONCRETE FLOOR. DO NOT SPRAY THE
TENT WITH INSECTICIDE.
Your tent is water repellent, however, it is not waterproof. During heavy rain, some leakage may occur. Keep
objects from touching the inside of the tent. Such objects may cause leakage at point of contact. If seam leakage
occurs, it can be controlled by applying a seam sealer compound.
EXERCISE CARE WHEN USING ELECTRIC DEVICES IN AND NEAR TENTS.
Although our tents and screen houses are constructed to rigid specifications, periods of wind or rain
soaking the ground may loosen the stakes and cause the uprights to sink into the ground. This will
weaken the rigidity of the overall structure. Water pockets may also form in the roof if the unit is not
assembled taut, possibly causing broken frames and torn fabric.

IMPORTANT: WE ADVISE YOU TO ASSEMBLE THE TENT ONCE BEFORE
GOING CAMPING TO BECOME FAMILIAR WITH THE ASSEMBLY. IT IS
RECOMMENDED TWO ADULTS BE INVOLVED IN SET UP.
NOTE: PLEASE LOOK AT THE REPLACEMENT PARTS DIAGRAM TO SEE
HOW YOUR FRAME IS ASSEMBLED.
TO PROLONG THE LIFE OF THE TENT FLOOR, SELECT A LEVEL, CLEAN AREA
FOR THE CAMPSITE. TO PREVENT DAMAGE TO THE ZIPPER, UNZIP THE
DOOR TO ALLOW AIR TO ENTER THE TENT.
TO IMPROVE THE WEATHER RESISTANCE OF YOUR TENT, IT IS ADVISABLE
TO USE SEAM SEALER TO COAT ALL EXPOSED SEAMS. YOU SHOULD APPLY
ONLY TO THE UNDERSIDE OF THE FLY AND INSIDE SEAMS OF THE TENT.
IF APPLIED TO THE OUTSIDE OF SEAMS, DISCOLORATION OF YOUR TENT
MAY OCCUR. SEAM SEALER IS AVAILABLE IN THE CAMPING SECTION OF
ANY LOCAL SPORTING GOODS STORE.
STEP 1: Spread tent out flat, floor side down. Unzip the doors.
STEP 4: While making sure the sleeves are in line with each other, slide each
main roof pole (A) through the green sleeves that are opposite each other on the
roof of the tent. Next insert the center roof ridge pole though the tan sleeves. Be
sure that the poles go through the webbing loop at the center top of the tent.
STEP 6: Extend each of the six steel poles, by pulling out each wire-corded
section and placing the jointed ends into the connected pole sections. The 4
poles with the D-rings at the center are the main tent upright poles (D). The 2
poles (E) with the D-Rings near the end are the center upright poles.
STEP 7: With an adult on each corner at one end of the tent,
insert the ends of the steel main upright poles (D) into the bottom
openings of the plastic corner joints (C).
STEP 8: Each adult should lift up on the steel pole and while
raising one side of the tent, place the bottom end of the steel
pole over the fast foot at the base.
STEP 9: Using the two center upright poles (E) with the
D-rings near the top repeat steps 7 and 8 at the center of the tent.
STEP 10: Using the two remaining main upright poles (D) repeat steps 7 and 8
at the remaining 2 corners of the tent.
STEP 11: Clip the plastic hooks on the tent walls around the steel poles.
WARNING:
Elastic cords can snap back and hit your eye.
To reduce the risk of injury to you and others:
• Keep your body and face clear.
• Do not over stretch elastic cords.
• Maintain firm grip on hook.
• Pull the hook toward you; if it slips it will spring away from you.
• Make sure hook is fully clipped to tent before releasing.
• Wear protective eye wear during tent assembly.
Your failure to follow this warning could cause serious injury or permanent disability.
STEP 13: Secure the tent to the fly by wrapping the Velcro fasteners
at the edge of the fly around the metal tent poles as well as securing
the ties on the underside of the fly to the corner joints.
STEP 14: Guy ropes have been provided for the tent. Extend
each of the guy ropes and make a loop at the opposite end
by using the slider (as shown). Place the loop over a plastic
tent stake and stake to the ground. Adjust the slider to make
guy rope tight.
Assembled tent should
appear as shown.

STEP 3: Locate the three fiberglass tent poles. Extend
each fiberglass pole by pulling out each section and
placing the ends of the pole sections into the metal
connecting ferrules. The two longer poles (A) are the
main roof poles, which run corner to corner across your
tent roof. The third pole (B) is the center ridge pole.

STEP 12: Unfold the fly and place it over the tent, making certain that
triangular panels on the fly are placed at the corners of the tent. Attach
the hooks at the edge of the fly to the D-Rings on the upright poles.
NOTE : To take down tent, follow steps above in the reverse order. Be sure to
leave door and windows unzipped. Place stakes into stake bag and poles into
pole bag, which are provided. The tent should be folded into equal parts toward
the center of the tent to distribute the bulk. Fold fly and lay on top of tent. Start
a small tight roll, the width of the carry bag, with the pole bag placed at the end
opposite the door. Roll tent toward door to allow air to escape. Once rolled, tie
a string or rope around tent to hold into place. Place tent, frame and stakes into
carry bag. Make sure tent is clean and dry before storing.
STEP 2: Stake tent to the ground by inserting metal stakes
through
the stake loops attached to the fast feet at each tent
corner. Hammer the stakes into the ground at a 45°, making
sure to pull tent floor out even and tight. Continue to stake
down all intermediate stake loops.
STEP 5: Locate the plastic corner joints (C) that are attached to the
tent canopy and attach them to the ends of the fiberglass poles. The
smaller opening of the corner joints with “teeth” fit over the roof poles.
