Take the tent by the pole tensioner
(f.ex. peg loop) and insert the pole
fully into the sleeve so that it bends
naturally!
Insert the poles into the pole sleeves
until you feel a slight resistance
(about 1–1,5 m / 40-60 inches into
the sleeve). Then pull the sleeve
over the pole until it bottoms at the
reinforced end of the sleeve.
Make sure that the pole does not
bend before it gets to the reinforced
end.
