3.
Next, work your way around the trailer and make sure all the press studs are connected so the canvas holds
in place
4.
Grab four c-clip spreader bars and two small corner stays and climb inside your trailer
Use the Velcro to attach the roof bow
to the roof
5.
If your trailer is brand new check that all bows are correctly attached to the canvas you do this by using the
Velcro to hold them in place
6.
Start by putting in two of your spreader bars between the living area bow and the centre bow then climb
up onto the bed
Attach the longer c-clip spreader bar
9.
Work your way back extending all bows then spreader bars, but take care not to make it too tight it can
open up seams and cause water to get in. Canvas shrinks as it weathers so your trailer may appear a little
saggy when you first set it up but over time it will shrink and tighten up.
This is the most basic setup for those quick overnight stays where you don’t need the extra undercover area
that the annexe provides. If you are planning a longer stay however you’ll want to set up the annexe.
7.
Raise the bed bow and extend out until side walls are from but not tight
Here’s what it should look like with
the bed (centre) bow raised
8.
Then put in your corner stays and the other 2 spreader bars, extend the corner stays and lock in place
Pop in your corner stays at the front
of the trailer
The main tent is now set and ready
for sleeping in. Note that there is still
a little slackness in the canvas.
