13) To install the gear loft, place each corner hook of the
gear loft into the loop located on the ceiling of the tent.
10) Drape the rain fly over the tent. The rain fly side that
says “Vehicle Side” goes towards the vehicle. Hook the
rain fly to the bottom rings on the tent. Hook the Velcro
tab around the pole.
12) Assemble awning poles (2) by unfolding each section.
Place the pointed end of the pole through the grommet
at the corner of the awning. Insert the ring on the guide
rope around the point and place the awning cap over
the guide rope. Stake the other end to the ground.
Adjust length of guide rope. Repeat on other side.
9) Stake the tent to the ground through the corner pins and
side webbing loops.
Tent Care Tips
1) We recommend you seam seal the seams of your tent
prior to use as water may penetrate the needle holes in the
fabric. This is common with tents and is not a defect.
2) Condensation will form on the inside surface of your tent.
It is caused by water vapor from your breath, perspiration
or any wet items inside the tent. Water on the inside of
the tent is NOT leakage through the tent fabric. To reduce
leave door and windows partially open.
3) The water resistant coating may wear down over time.
It is sugguested to spray a water resistant coating onto
the tent and rain fly every few years.
4) Avoid spraying insect repellent, hair spray, etc., inside or
near your tent, as they may be harmful to the tent fabric
and cause leakage.
5) Do not leave your tent set up in direct sunlight longer
than necessary. If left in sunlight for prolonged periods of
time, fabric will fade and weaken.
6) If zippers stick, lubricate with silicon. Never force a zipper
as this will bend and prevent the zipper from closing.
Continual use in a sandy environment can cause a slider
to erode and fail to close.
7) NEVER roll up or pack away a wet/damp tent. This will
cause mildew. Make sure your tent is completely dry
before storing. Store your tent in a dry place.
8) To cleaning, hand wash with a sponge using mild soap
Never use washing machine or detergent.
