Anchor ETI Trio Traditional Assembly Instructions

Please verify the parts with the chart provided before you begin assembly.
ASSEMBLY STEPS:
1. Place the side bars in a square or rectangle on a flat surface. (NOTE: Color coding on Frame Parts List.)
2. Place corner fitting in each corner.
3. For tents over 15' place the mid-leg/rafter fittings between the side bars at 10' intervals with the letter B toward the base.
4. Slide the side bars into the corner fittings until the snap buttons engage. Next, attach the side bars to the mid-leg/rafter
fittings. Be sure the snap buttons engage. (NOTE: The indentation on the tubing is used to assist in aligning the snap
button to the hole on the fitting)
The perimeter of your unit is now assembled.
5. Slide a corner rafter into each corner fitting until the snap buttons engage.
6. Install the top crown on the corner rafters in opposite pairs.
IMPORTANT: For the 20' x 20' crown, be sure the shorter fitting stubs are pointed toward the
corners (C). The longer stubs on the crown align with the mid-leg/rafter fittings (M).
7. For tents over 15' , slide a mid-leg/rafter into the top fitting first then into the corresponding mid-leg/rafter fitting. The
perimeter of the frame is designed to flex sufficiently to make this step easy. Repeat this step for each remaining mid-
rafter. Remember to work in opposite pairs.
The upper structure is now complete.
8. Place the cover on the frame. Be sure to center the cover while the upper structure is still on the
covers: After the cover is loosely on the frame, place the mast through the hole in the center of the cover and secure the
mast to the top crown.)
9. Lift one side of the tent and attach two adjustable legs (with base plates) in their lowest position in each corner.
Repeat for the other side. Then attach (if applicable) the remaining legs in each mid-leg/rafter fitting, also in the
lowest position. (It is recommended two persons be available when lifting the frame to install the legs.)
10. For Traditional Covers.
with the straps and buckles. Start by securing one corner and then the opposite corner. Once the corners are secure,
the straps should then be tightened. Over-tightening the straps can damage the cover.
11. Raise the frame to desired height until the snap buttons engage.
12. For Tension or High-Peak Covers.
be secured with the straps and buckles down each tent leg. Make sure each strap is properly tightened.
13. While this unit will stand on its own, it is imperative the tent be secured with ropes/ratchets and stakes or any other
appropriate anchoring method. Anchoring from Economy Tent International is optional to our customers.
