Set-up Instructions
The use of protective gloves and eyewear is recommended during setup.
There are many ways to use the Super-6 tarp. To set it up as pictured, lay the tarp out flat. Place poles at
points A and B (See figure 1). Insert the tips of the poles into the metal rings. Tie a small loop in the end of
the guy rope and place over the tip of the pole. Use the longer double guy ropes to secure the points with
the poles. Dashed lines in figure 1 represent location of the guy ropes.

Tips:
•
For one-person setup, first place a temporary stake in the loop at point B. Stake the guy ropes for
point A. Then raise the pole at point A. Then raise the pole at point B, and secure guy ropes.
•
In soft sand or snow, use a dead-man anchor.
WARNING
This tarp is not free-standing. If not properly staked it will
collapse. Be sure to securely anchor.
