MMI TREK TENTS 245C Manual

NOTE
SELECT A NICE, CLEAN, AND SMOOTH CAMPSITE. SHARP
STONES OR STICKS MAY PUNCTURE THE FLOOR OF YOUR
TENT. FACE THE DOOR OF THE TENT IN THE DESIRED
DIRECTION. STAKE ONE FRONT CORNER OF THE TENT FLOOR.
THEN PULL THE OPPOSITE FRONT CORNER TAUT BUT NOT
OVERLY TIGHT AND STAKE THAT CORNER. THEN DO THIS
TO THE REAR CORNERS. THEN ALL STAKES MAY BE DRIVEN
THROUGH THE REMAINING STAKE LOOPS.
SEPARATE ALL METAL TENT POLES INTO LIKE POLES OR
INTO COLOR CODED POLE GROUPS. SOME POLES MAY BE
IDENTIFIED BY THE ALPHABET CHARACTER AFFIXED ON THE
POLES. THE CENTER UPRIGHT POLES WILL BE ADJUSTABLE
AND MATE INTO EACH OTHER.
INSERT ONE RIDGE POLE ASSEMBLY INTO THE CENTER POLE
SLEEVE OF THE TENT. THEN REPEAT THIS BY THREADING THE
OTHER TWO RIDGE POLE ASSEMBLIES THROUGH THE FRONT
AND REAR POLE LOOPS IN THE WHITE ROOF. FASTEN THE
CORNERS WITH THE WEB TIES. DO NOT APPLY TOO MUCH
TENSION TO TEAR THE SEAMS.
WITH ALL THREE RIDGE POLES IN PLACE, THE UPRIGHT POLES
CAN NOW BE ADDED IN ORDER TO ERECT THE TENT. IDENTIFY
THE UPPER AND LOWER PORTIONS OF EACH UPRIGHT POLE
ASSEMBLY AND JOIN THEM TOGETHER. THE LONGEST OF
THESE WILL BE THE CENTER UPRIGHT POLES. INSERT THE
REDUCED END OF THE CENTER UPRIGHT POLES INTO THE
CORRESPONDING DOWN-BEND OF THE CENTER RIDGE POLE
AT THE FRONT AND REAR OF THE TENT. MAKE SURE THE
UPRIGHT POLES ARE COLLAPSED AT THEIR TELESCOPING
SECTION AND WITH SOMEONE AT THE FRONT AND REAR OF
THE TENT, SIMULTANEOUSLY LIFT THE CENTER RIDGE POLE
USING THE CENTER UPRIGHT POLES. IT SHOULD ERECT
WITHOUT RESISTANCE AND STAND LOOSELY. IT MAY BE
HELPFUL TO HAVE SOMEONE HOLD THE CENTER UPRIGHT
POLES IN PLACE WHILE YOU MOVE ON TO STEPS 5 AND 6.

INSERT THE REDUCED ENDS OF THE LEFT AND RIGHT UPRIGHT POLES
INTO THE CORRESPONDING DOWN-BENDS OF THE LEFT AND RIGHT
RIDGE POLES AT EACH CORNER. THE FEET OF THE LEFT AND RIGHT
UPRIGHT POLES SHOULD ANGLE IN TOWARD THE FEET OF THE CENTER
RIDGE POLE. ERECT ONE SIDE AT A TIME, WITH SOMEONE AT THE
FRONT AND REAR OF THE TENT. HOLDING ONTO THE UPRIGHT POLES,
SIMULTANEOUSLY LIFT THE RIDGE POLE UPWARDS, SLIDING THE FEET
OF THE UPRIGHT POLES ALONG THE GROUND, OUTWARD TOWARD THE
TENT’S CORNERS. ERECT UNTIL ENOUGH TENSION EXISTS TO KEEP THE
UPRIGHT POLE HELD ERECT. REPEAT FOR THE OTHER END.
THE TENT SHOULD NOW BE FREESTANDING, BUT WILL REQUIRE SOME
ADJUSTMENT. CHECK THE INTERIOR FLOOR TO MAKE SURE THERE ARE
NO MAJOR TENSION LINES. THE FLOOR SHOULD LIE FLAT AND TAUT.
MOVE THE CORNER STAKE POINTS IF NEEDED. NOW RAISE THE CENTER
UPRIGHT POLES AT THEIR TELESCOPING SECTIONS TO PULL THE TENT’S
ROOF AND SIDES TAUT. THIS MAY ALSO REQUIRE SOME ADJUSTMENT
OF THE LEFT AND RIGHT UPRIGHT POLES. BE CAREFUL NOT TO PULL
THE TENT’S FABRIC SO TIGHT AS TO TEAR THE FABRIC OR SEAMS WHILE
MAKING THESE FINAL ADJUSTMENTS. CAREFULLY REVERSE THESE
STEPS TO DISMANTLE YOUR TENT.
