ATTACHING TO VEHICLE cross bars
Have someone help you lift the tent on top of your
vehicle corss bars (cover can be on or off). The
mounting tracks will need to be perpendicular to the
bars they will mount to, and the tent should be
centered on the cross bars.
NOTE:
Place the
hinge so that
the tent will
open on the
side you prefer.
A)
Assemble the channel sliders and steel mount
plates together using the 13mm x 70mm or 50mm
(dependent on cross bars) steel bolts.

Use a steel mounting plate at each of the four corners (where the rack bars and mounting
tracks cross) and secure the bolts with nylon lock nuts on either side of the bar.
NOTE:
Ensure nuts are tightened before and after long trips.

Once the tent is positioned and all eight bolts are secure,
attach plastic end caps into the ends of the mounting
tracks. Tap in gently with a hammer if necessary.

B)
Once assembled, slide the 13mm bolts with
channel sliders through the mounting tracks.
Lift one side of the tent and place one of the bolts
(with channel sliders) on the inner side of the roof
rack bar. Do this on the opposite side, then repeat for
the other two corners.
