3. Once the top has fully opened, reach up and grab the base of theladder.
4. Pull the ladder towards you, allowing it to extend completely
(NOTE: when you first use the tent, you will first need to undo the velcro strap on the ladder).

6. After the extension floor has been lowered, securely install the ladder.
INSTALLING THE LADDER
CAUTION: FAILURE TO PROPERLY SECURE THE LADDER COULD CAUSE DAMAGE AND SERIOUS INJURY.
CAREFULLY READ THE INSTRUCTIONS BELOW BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO USE THE LADDER.
The ladder acts as the support for the tent’s extension panel. Always make sure the ladder is firmly planted in
the ground, and each step is securely locked before going up the ladder.
• Make sure the base of the ladder is placed on even, solid ground:
If the terrain does not allow the ladder to have a stable, even base, move your vehicle to another spot. Do NOT install
the ladder on uneven ground, or on rocks, sand, or mud.
Place the ladder at an approximate 70° angle as pictured below, and make sure it is firmly planted in the ground.
• The ladder should be able to offer support to the extension panel and the tent’s occupants. The main panel (floor)
and extension panel should be horizontal, with a small space between the two panels (the extension panel should be
lifted up slightly higher than the main panel).
