For an easier assembly, set the tent up on the
ground, completing steps 1-3 last.
NOTE: Do not attach pole clips until all poles are in place in their pockets (step 7). Failure to do so will create too much tension and may cause pole to break.

Insert each pole into the corresponding colored pocket in the following order:
•GREEN (side-to-side) pole into webbing pocket above the windows
•BLUE (corner-to-corner) pole into the pocket near the truck cab. Insert the other end
into the pocket by the tailgate. Repeat with the other blue pole
•SHORT GREY (rear cab) pole into the grommet holes
•LONG GREY (tailgate) pole
•BLACK (inside front-to-back) pole. Secure
the pole to the tent using the Velcro tabs
NOTE: Ensure tailgate pole is set-up
on the outside of the tailgate wires.
(If pole is set up inside the tailgate
wires it will create too much
tension and may cause pole to break).
Assemble the tent poles by
unfolding each section.
