MODEL W836 8 PERSON TENT 16’ X 8’
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.

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.
PROTECT YOUR CHILDREN
• 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.
FLAMMABILITY WARNING KEEP ALL FLAME AND HEAT SOURCES AWAY FROM THIS TENT FABRIC
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 will cause death, serious injury, or permanent disability to you or others.
CAMPING DO’S AND DON’TS
DO NOT...
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.

DO...
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.

supplement tent stakes and guy cords.
5. Take your tent down and store properly after camping.
DANGER
DANGER
WARNING

STEP 2: Stake the tent to the ground by inserting stakes though the
webbing loops
at the side corners of the tent. Hammer the stakes
into the ground at a 45° angle,
making sure the tent floor is pulled
out even and tight.
STEP 1: Spread tent out flat, floor side down.
STEP 3: Extend fiberglass tent poles by pulling out each
section and placing it into the metal ferrule connectors.
You will have five poles. The two longest poles (A) are
the main tent poles. The next two longest poles (B) will
be used on the sides of the tent. The shortest pole with
metal, bullet point end tips (C) will be used with the tent fly.
STEP 4: While making sure sleeves are in line with each other, slide the main fiberglass
tent poles (A) through the sleeves that are opposite each other on the sides and roof
of the tent. Straighten the sleeves along the fiberglass sections. Position poles so that
they form an “X” across the tent.
STEP 6: Go to the front of the tent and flex the main pole and
place the ferrule at the end of the pole onto the pin on the ring
at the base of the tent. Repeat for the second main tent pole.
STEP 8: Finish staking down the tent by inserting stakes through the rings at the
base of the tent and any intermediate stake loops . Hammer the stakes into the
ground at a 45° angle, using a hammer or mallet. Pull tent floor out taught.
STEP 7: To assemble the side rooms, locate the longer remaining fiberglass poles (B).
Insert one of the pole sections through pole sleeve at the top of the side room. With an
adult on each end of the side room pole, gently flex the pole into an arch and place the
ferrules at the end of the side room pole into the pin ring at the base of the tent. Repeat
the same procedure for the remaining side room. Clip plastic hooks to the frame.
STEP 9: Unfold fly and place over tent so pole sleeve is is located over the doors.
Attach the fly to the tent by hooking the S-hooks located at each of the fly corners
to the rings at the base of the tent.
STEP 10:
Fasten the Velcro fasteners on the underside of the fly
to the fiberglass poles at all locations.
STEP 11: Insert the fly pole (C) into the sleeve at the very edge of the fly awning,
over the front doors. Flex the fiberglass fly pole and insert each end into the reinforced
metal grommets located on either side of the front doors.
STEP 12: There are guy ropes located on the fly of the tent. Extend the guy ropes on
the fly edges. Make a loop at opposite end of guy rope by using a slider
(as shown) and place loop over pin tent stake. Adjust slider to make guy
rope tight and stake to the ground. Tent stakes have been included for this.
Tent should appear
as shown.

Your tent includes a divider curtain which can be attached to the inside ceiling
and walls of your tent to divide into two rooms.
Special Instruction: When it is raining, please ensure the door zipper sliders are pulled
completely closed at the bottom corner of the door. Make sure that the zipper is covered by
the zipper flaps. Not following the above instructions may cause some leakage inside the tent.
NOTE: To take down tent, follow steps above in the reverse order. Be sure to leave
doors 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 your carry bag, at the end opposite the doors. Roll tent toward
doors to allow air to escape. Once rolled, tie a string or rope around tent to hold
into place. Place tent and stake bag into carry bag. MAKE SURE TENT IS CLEAN
AND DRY BEFORE STORING.
IMPORTANT: WE ADVISE YOU TO ASSEMBLE THE TENT ONCE BEFORE
GOING CAMPING TO BECOME FAMILIAR WITH THE ASSEMBLY OF THE TENT.
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 DOORS 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 INSIDE SEAMS OF THE TENT AND UNDERSIDE OF THE TENT
FLY. 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 5: Starting at the back of the tent, insert the ferrules at the ends
of the poles onto the pin located on the rings at the floor edge of
the tent. You will find two pins at each location. One pin is for the
main tent poles and the other is for the side 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 eyewear during tent assembly. Your failure to follow
this warning could cause serious injury or permanent disability.
