TIPS
•
For best results, set tent in a warm environment
•
Use of a cordless drill is advised for installing U-channel screws
•
Before installing tent, place a heavy weight in the center of the base to ensure proper tent installation
•
Do not leave spreader poles attached w
hile installing tent. Only use them for placing tent over the shelter’s
frame during the assembly process
1) After connecting the Velcro tent loops to the frame, pull tent material over the back of the base and
temporarily attach using clamps.
2) Walk around the shelter to verify the tent is fitted to the frame properly and adjust as needed before
continuing.
3) To properly set the tent, pull down on the rear corners of the tent to adjust the front hoop pole position.
When set correctly, the front hoop pole should touch the floor and the tent material should have some
slack. Once satisfied with how the tent is sitting, re-clamp rear corners to maintain proper position of the
tent.
4) Before installing U-Channel, PN 102814, place in hot water for a minimum of two minutes or until molding
is pliable.
5) Find rear midpoint of the shelter and center of U-Channel. Press the middle of the molding over tent
material and base lip (see Detail “A”). Insert one #6 phillips screw into the center of the U-Channel
molding.
Next, press the molding in around the base and cut 8” from the rear of the pole mounting bracket
(see Detail “B”).
6) Install remaining screws through U-Channel until it is fully secured to the base and is holding the tent tight
to the tub.
