STIRLING SERIES

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.
Annexe:
Your annexe will take approximately 20-30 minutes to setup completely
and is best done with at least 2 people.

Here’s a little trick for you, instead of trying to climb up and zip the annexe on, once you get the zip started use
a window stay to help the zip along
Lay out your canvas
Two pairs of hands will make the job
much easier
Lay out your poles
1.
The first step is to unfold your annexe canvas and lay it out on the ground, make sure its sitting the right
way and you have a nice pile of all your annexe walls and shower room off to one side
2.
Now lay out all the poles we need before starting.
3.
Start off by inserting the hooked end of the ridge poles through the canvas holes putting the hook through
the loop inside the tent, this is easier to do with a friend helping
5.
Then lower your centre bow to make it easier to attach the annexe, this can be done without doing this but
this is much easier
6.
Once all your ridgepoles are in & the annexe roof is attached, start at one end and put up the upright and
add in the flat spreader poles, and then last of all put the canvas over the top with the upright spigot
through the eyelet and use the plastic hook to secure. It’s best to have your mate or partner help with this
part, it’s really a two-person job.
