  • Page 3 Step 1: Carefully inspect the tent site for obstacles, such as: underground and overhead wires, pipes, water, etc. If you are unsure, consult with your local utility company prior to installation. Step 2: Lay out the tent pieces first by placing the 3-Way Connector at each corner. Place two Perimeter Poles with a Perimeter Pole Coupler between two adjacent 3-Way Connectors.
  • Page 4 Step 3: Begin assembly of the frame by inserting the Perimeter Pole Couplers into the Perimeter Poles. Then connect the assembled Perimeter Poles into the 3-Way Connectors. Continue this process until the perimeter framework is assembled.
  • Page 5 Step 4: Attach the Cable Assembly to opposite corners of the structure per the diagram below. When you bolt and u-shaped bracket to the 3-way connectors, you need to make sure you insert the bolt first through the unthreaded side of the u-shaped bracket, then through the hole and into the threaded side of the u-shaped bracket so it can tighten properly.
  • Page 6 Step 5: Unroll the vinyl canopy top across the frame making sure the extra peak material is centered on top of the frame. Stretch the corner webbing loops (sewn into the tent corners) over the cast hook on the outside of the 3-Way Connector. Note: the last corner may be difficult to stretch over the corner hook, especially in cold conditions...
  • Page 7 Step 6: Attach the Feet to two Leg Poles. Then install the two Leg Poles to the two adjacent 3-Way Connectors by raising the frame on one side. Make sure that the hook on the Feet are pointing outward and in-line with the 3-Way Connector hook.
  • Page 8 Step 7: Locate the Peak Pole Assembly and release the Bottom Stainless Steel Cotter Ring and pull the entire Pin out. Do not remove the top Pin (this is the Pin with the Spacer). Part A: Insert the Peak Pole Crown end into the Grommet at the peak of the canopy. Then place the Spacer Pin end on the top cable (it’s ok if this is at an angle to start, it doesn’t need to be exactly at center, yet).
  • Page 9 Step 8: Attach the remaining two Feet onto the Leg Poles. Again, make sure that the cast hook on the Feet are pointing outward and in-line with the 3-Way Connector hook.
  • Page 10 Step 9: Part A: Attach the canopy to the frame using the Top Tie Down Strap. Bring the “Y” straps through the metal rings on each of the tent top valances, making sure that the strap is on the outside of the leg. Secure the looped end of the “Y”...
  • Page 11 Step 10: Part B: Attach the bottom looped end of the Top Tie Down Strap to the hook on each Foot. Part C: Locate the ratchet in the middle of the strap and tighten until the strap is taut enough to secure the canopy.
  • Page 12 Step 11: Locate the Outguy Straps and connect the carabiner at the top of the strap to the 3-Way Connector hook that is on the outside of each of the corner brackets.
  • Page 13 Step 12: Locate the 36” Stakes and loop the strap (at the bottom end of the Outguy Straps) around the head of the stake, see diagram below. Drive the Stake into the ground at least 3.6’ (or more) away from the hole in each Foot (directly in line with the hole) and ratchet the strap until it is taut.
  • Page 14 Note: Do not place the stake beyond the direct line of the hole. Meaning you do not want it to the right or left of the hole in the Foot, see diagram on next page.
  • Page 15 Step 13: Once all stakes have been secured and straps have been ratcheted taut, fold all extra Outguy Strap length into the vinyl covers and secure with the Velcro closures.
