Step 5: If using trekking poles, you
do not need to use the bow pole.
Instead, extend your trekking poles
to approx. 42” length. Wrap the
Velcro attachment located at the
end of the WebTruss wing around
the handle of your trekking pole.
Step 4: Pass the bow pole under-
neath the webbing at the inter-
section at the top of the WebTruss.
Insert each end of the bow pole
into the pockets located at the end
of the wings of the WebTruss (E, F).
Step 3: One at a time, push body
poles through opening in Web-
Truss (the openings are marked
by reective tape). The two body
poles will cross in the middle of
WebTruss. Place the ends of the
poles (pole tips) into the appro-
priate grommet tabs at the corners
of the tent body (A + D, B + C).
Step 2: Extend the two(2) body
poles and the bow pole. Make sure
that each tube section is fully seat-
ed/engaged in its adjacent section
or in the joint connector. *Do not
allow tube sections to snap into
each other. This can damage the
ends of the tube sections.
Step 1: Find and layout the
tent body or tub footprint on a
clear and level surface. Make sure
that the WebTruss is clipped to the
corners of the tent body or tub
footprint (A, B, C, D). Stake out the
cord loops at the corners of the
tent body (A, B, C, D).

How To Use Clam Cleat
reective
tabs
clip WebTruss
(inner o-ring)
clip ysheet
(outer o-ring)
Twist Clip Ridge Clip
Note: The CrossBow 2 tent comes
with 8 guy lines with clam cleats.
2 of these guy lines will be used
for guying out the wings of the
WebTruss if trekking poles are
used. Use the remainder of the
guy lines to externally and/or
internally guy out the rest of the
tent (if necessary).
Step 12: Connect the ysheet to
the WebTruss using the o-ring and
door tie connectors along the
underside of the ysheet.
Step 11: Adjust the tension at each
corner of the ysheet using the
attached cord and clam cleats.
Step 10: Stake out the ysheet
vestibules (G, H) using the attached
guy line with clam cleat. If you used
the trekking pole setup, this will be
the same stake out location as the
guy line for the trekking pole.
Step 9: Find and layout the y-
sheet. Note that one end of the
ysheet has a reective tab at
each corner. Match that end of the
ysheet with the end of the tent
body that also has a reective tab
at each corner. Connect the Ridge
Clips at the corners of the ysheet
onto the respective o-rings on the
grommet tabs at each corner of
the tent body (A, B, C, D).
Step 8: Connect the tent body to
the WebTruss via the clips attached
(DAC twist clips along the top of
the tent body, two (2) Ridge clips at
the end of the WebTruss wing
connect to the o-rings at the top
corners of the tent body).
Step 7: Adjust the tension of the
WebTruss by pulling or loosening
the webbing at the tension buckles
(located at corners where the Web-
Truss attaches to the tent body.
Step 6 (for StormPak): Wrap Velcro
tabs around poles at each corner.
Step 5 (cont’d): Stick the tip end of
your trekking pole into the ground.
Connect a guy line with clam cleat
to each o-ring at the ends of the
WebTruss wings (E, F). Stake out the
loop end of the guy line cord to the
ground. This will be the same stake
location as the ysheet vestibules
(G, H).
