Force 10 Classic Standard Quick Start Manual

Classic Standard & CN
Inner First Pitching
1. Open out and position inner tent in required direction.
2. Assemble poles and lay them on the ground. There
are 5 poles: 4 uprights (with spike on one end) and 1
ridge pole (with drilled holes at each end).
Additionally there is a short sleeve which slides on top
of the ridge pole.
3. Construct one A-frame by inserting two of the upright
poles into one of the plastic apex pieces.
4. Attach the ridge pole by inserting the apex's spike
through one of the drilled ends of the ridge pole. You
should now have a tripod.
5. Insert the spikes at the bottom of the uprights into the
eyelets at the rear of tent (see diagram).
6. Assemble second A-frame section, slide the short
sleeve onto the ridge pole, then connect the ridge pole
onto the second A-frame section at front of tent.
7. Insert the spikes at the bottom of the second A-frame
into the eyelets at the front of the tent. The frame
should now loosely support itself.
8. Suspend inner tent by attaching plastic clips (one at
each end) to holes in plastic apex at top of each A-
frame.
9. Position short sleeve to centre of ridge pole, then
attach plastic clip on inner to sleeve.
10. Pull groundsheet tight and peg down at all points.

Eyelet
Open out flysheet and position to correspond with
inner tent doorway.
Place flysheet over frame and locate eyelets over
A-frame apex spikes.
Attach inner tent to flysheet using connectors located
centrally between inner and outer side panels. These
maintain spacing between inner and outer in windy
conditions.
Connect the eyelet on the flysheet's anchor straps to
the spikes at the base of the upright poles.
Peg out flysheet's elastic pegging points.
Peg out 2x side guylines.
In windy weather the four storm guylines can be
attached to the apex spikes – 2 at front, 2 at back.
Assemble the pole structure first (as on left) and
position accordingly.
Open out flysheet and place over poles, inserting the
apex spikes through the eyelets in the middle of the
flysheet.
Connect the eyelet on the flysheet's anchor straps to
the spikes at the base of the upright poles.
Peg down all guylines and pegging points.
Open out inner tent inside flysheet and attach as on
left.
