How to install your
R-Pod Side Tent
by PahaQue
1.
Locate
the following parts included with your R-Pod Side Tent:
One fiberglass front arch pole
2 straight aluminum main corner poles
3 overhead adjustable roof support poles
Trailer skirt
Tire cover and 1 Floor Patch
8 keder rails and Velcro keder cord connectors
*Note: Hardware and other features are subject to change.
2.
Unfold
Side Tent and locate keder (rope) edge of Side Tent. Make sure Side Tent is right-
side-up by checking that the coated (shiny) side of the Side Tent fabric is facing
downward. See Photo A.
3.
Starting
at the rear of the trailer, slide the Side Tent keder cord into the keder rail on the passenger side of
your trailer. Make sure that the Side Tent keder cord is able to feed freely into the rail as you pull the Side Tent
towards the front of the trailer.
4.
Locate
the pole sleeve on the outer top edge of the Side Tent. Carefully insert the fiberglass arch pole into the
pole sleeve and into the 2 elbow connectors on either side of the Side Tent. See Photo B and Photo B1.
5.
Locate
the
3 extendable roof poles. At the top-rear of the Side Tent near the keder cord is a roof pole
pocket. Insert the blank end of a roof pole into this pocket. Pass the opposite end of the center roof pole
through the slit in the front of the Side Tent and clip it onto the fiberglass arch pole. Repeat with the
remaining roof poles.

6.
Locate
the 2 vertical aluminum corner poles and assemble. Insert the non-peg end into the elbow
connectors and the pegs on the bottom of the corner poles into the grommets at the lower front corners of
the Side Tent, as shown in Photo D.
7.
Locate
the keder rails and Velcro connectors. Affix keder rails (adhesive backing) vertically to trailer
lined up with the vertical Velcro edge of Side Tent wall, 4 per side.
Exact placement is up to the user.
8.
Pull
the Side Tent out and away from the trailer. Using two ground stakes (one on
either side) and the two adjustable webbing straps located at the front of the Side Tent on either side,
secure the Side Tent in place, and adjust the webbing straps as needed to get a tight pitch of the Side
Tent.
9.
Stake
Side Tent down using all ground loops.

Final adjustments:
USEFUL TIPS:
While taking care not to over-tighten the adjustable webbing straps, it is important to not allow the Side Tent to sag
where water could collect during a rain storm
Do not store your Side Tent while wet for any extended period – always dry completely prior to long-term storage.
Note that the pockets for the aluminum roof pole may need to be sealed around the seams. Use the enclosed Seam
Grip® Seam Sealer.
