IMPORTANT NOTES BEFORE YOU BEGIN:
•Assemble your tent before camping to become familiar with the assembly.
•Setup is possible for one person, however two or more people are recommended.
•Select a clean, level area for the campsite free of debris and sharp objects, away from a natural
watercourse.
•Use of a ground cloth is recommended to prolong the life of the tent floor and provide
additional insulation and moisture protection.
•To prevent damage to the zippers, unzip the doors and windows of the tent prior to
disassembly allowing air to move freely.
•Seam sealing the inside stitched seams of the tent is recommended.
(seam sealer not included)
This will improve weather resistance. Discoloration may occur if applied to outside seams.

Assembly Instructions
Step 1:
All hubs(Qty 12) are pre-assembled to
the Ridge and Roof Edge Poles
FOR QUICKER SETUP, USE TWO
PEOPLE
A Extend all poles and sort into groups by
the color of tape affixed to the poles. (ie:
Roof Poles –blue tape, Eave Poles –
yellow tape, Corner Leg Poles –white
tape, Middle Leg Poles –green tape, etc).
This will simplify the assembly process.
The white sticker on Roof Edge Poles
and Ridge Poles must go over screen
room.

B Slide the roof poles with blue tape into
the hubs of the center ridge pole and
the twist the pole until you hear a click,
indicating the pole is properly secured
to the hub. Then slide the opposite ends
of the roof poles into the hubs of the
roof edge poles.
C Slide the small eave poles with the
yellow tape into the hubs of the roof
edge poles and twist the pole until you
once again hear a click.
Step 2:
Assembly Instructions
OPTIONAL STEP D: If rainfly is wanted at time
of set-up, drape rainfly over roof frame
before attaching leg poles. Place rainfly
around the ends of the eave poles. If rainfly
is not needed at time of set-up, instructions
are available in step 4 for future reference
E On one side of tent ONLY slide the leg
poles into the corresponding hubs. The
colored tape on the pole should match the
colored taped side of the hub. For ease of
set up do not put leg poles in on other side
until after next step.
F Place the Tent Body underneath the tent
frame. Find “S” hooks on the center ridge
of the tent body and connect them to the
holes in the bottom of hub on the center
ridge pole.

insert the remaining color coded leg poles
into the hubs of the roof edge poles.

- Your product must be stored dry. One of the easiest ways to damage your product is storing it
while it is wet. Storing a wet tent as briefly as 24 hours in warm weather is likely to cause mildew
on the fabric coatings and are not covered by the limited warranty.
- If you must close camp in the rain, open your product and set it up to allow it to dry as soon as
possible. Allow dirt to dry on the fabric after a rainfall before lightly sweeping it off with a brush.
For tougher stains, spray the area with water and lightly wipe it off with a few strokes. Do not
use washer or dryer. DO NOT SCRUB THE FABRIC. ALWAYS MAKE SURE TENT IS COMPLETELY
DRY BEFORE REPACKING.
- Do not leave your tent set up for weeks at a time. Exposure to ultraviolet rays from the sun can
damage and /or discolor the material.
- Clean the poles with a cloth and lubricate them with a silicone spray to help prevent corrosion
and keep from being gritty. This is especially important after using the tent around salt water.
- Store the stakes in the separate storage bag that is included. Do not pack the stakes inside the
tent.
