section, tightening the nut lightly, to hold the pieces together. Assemble the two

Assemble one side at a time – this works best.
8. Look down the frame to make sure all the Ridge / Eave and Roof / Rafter poles

9. Once the roof is together and the frame is low to the ground or “stubbed”, pull the
tent over the roof making sure to orient the front door as desired. (Tie up the
Stove Pipe Shield flap if you are using a stove.) Spread the tent out over the
frame by pulling the sides toward each corner while centering the tent over the
frame. At each end of the tent, on the ridge, is a grommet. The eye bolt
attached earlier to the Ridge pole is used to secure the tent to the frame.
Unscrew the eye bolt, put it through the grommet in the tent and the Ridge pole.
Tighten the eye bolt so the locking nut has some play.

Walls (Sides)
11.Lift up one side of the frame and attach the Wall / Side poles to the Eaves.
Repeat this on the other side. The frame is up!
