Caution!
If Keder sidewalls are to be installed, it is necessary that all legs are
straight and in alignment along the side of the tent. Legs must be spaced evenly
apart to allow for installation of these sidewalls. To assure proper alignment, a
tape measure must be used.
Note: Corner brace connector slides over the perimeter tube with
opening facing toward the crown. Place bolt from the top side down
and tighten after locating and aligning with the leg assembly. Leg
brace bar may be installed on either side of the corner leg. Location
will be determined by site conditions as to the proper direction.
Important At This Point! With the first side raised, connect as
many of the perimeter buckles as possible to keep the top from
pulling out during the final assembly process.
Loosen slings and lower the tent jacks. Move all jacks to the opposite side of the tent and place jacks at or near corners and
connection points. Place the slings around the perimeter tubes and operate winch until slack is taken up on all the jacks.
Working as a team, raise the tent until the legs can be slipped on. Immediately pin legs with a 3/8" D-Clasp pin and install
the leg to rafter braces (leg brace bars). Lower jacks to set the tent onto its legs. Remove slings and place jacks in delivery
truck.
Install legs into the end of the tent. Starting with the leg inside of
the tent at an angle (as shown), push up and out until the leg slips
onto the connector. Pin leg in typical manner and install the leg
brace bar. Finish connecting all the perimeter buckles. When
tensioning buckle straps, pull until the sidewall rope appears at the
bottom of the perimeter tube. The final goal is to have the top
evenly and squarely affixed to the frame. Be sure that all tie down
tension straps are in place at the seams and corners.
The tent must be anchored properly for safe tent installation. On 30
and 40 ft tents, two (2) each 1" x 40" double head stakes per base
plate are recommended. Additonal guys and stakes may be required
depending on soil and/or wind conditions.
* In cases such as tents anchored ot concrete or other situations that
deem staking unreasonable, it is permissible to anchor with a concrete
anchor that is capable of equivalent holding power.
