Attaching the Rafters
1
Using the provided cleaves pins, insert 1 pin
into each rafter in the lower hole.
Select 3 rafters, and insert them each about
1/3rd of the way around the ring. Secure these
3 rafters with your remaining pins by inserting
the pin in the upper hole, locking these rafters
in position.
2
One person will now lift the ring into position,
while a second person will secure the rafters
into position with zip ties. Each zip tie will go
through the bottom hole on the rafter, over
the tension band, and then under the "X" on
the lattice.
3
The first three rafters need to have same
number of open spaces between on top as V-
joint spacing at the bottom. (ie - if you have 26
rafters, you will have 26 V joints at the top of
your lattice)
4
Add remaining rafters to the side of each of the
first rafters and work your way around the yurt
adding one rafter at a time per section, slowly
filling each section simultaneously.
Covering the Yurt
1
Drape cover over 1/2 of the yurt. The cover is
currently folded in half like a taco.
2
Unzip the yurt door, and carefully unfurl the cover
over the top of the yurt. Be careful not to tug too
hard on the fabric, it should slide over the frame
easily. Once the fabric is covering the yurt, align
the fabric door and door frame by rotating the
fabric with short, quick tugs.
3
Lift the dome into place from the outside
of the yurt and secure it with the supplied
bungee cords. One hook will secure to the
attached anchor on the dome, the other
will loop under the ring. You can adjust the
length of the bungees by pushing the cord
through the hook and tying a new knot.
