– Secure
your
pop
‐

tent
to
a
Deck
A. Start
by
placing
the
Pop
‐
up
tent
leg
over
one
of
the
gaps
between
the
boards
of
the
deck.
Using
the
approximate
spacing
shown,
insert
the
Deck
Anchor
through
the
deck
gap
making
one
quarter
turn
to
lock
in
place.
Use
a
rod
such
as
a
screw
driver
through
the
exposed
loop
end
to
assist
locking
in
place
if
needed.
USE
CAUTION
not
to
force
it
and
bend
the
anchors.
If
too
tight
or
too
loose,
see
“What
to
know
about
deck
attachments”
on
page 5
for
adjustment
techniques.

and
push
the

*
NOTE:
for
long
periods
of
leaving
your
Pop
‐
up
tent
setup
in
high
summer
temperatures,
it
is
recommended
to
check
for
any
slippage
of
the
Gator
Jawn
and
Adhesive
pads
to
the
pop
‐
up
legs.
If
this
should
occur,
simply
loosen
the
Gator
Jawn,
using
caution
to
free
the
pad
from
the
Pole
without
damaging
it,
and
reset
the
Pad
to
the
Spacer
half
or
adjust
the
position
to
retighten
the
lines
to
hold
your
shade

with
maximum
security.
STEP
5P
– Secure
your
pop
‐
up
tent
to
landscapes
A. Please
follow
the
first
time
set
up
instructions
on
page
2,
Step
1S
if
this
is
your
first
time
setting
up
your
Pop
‐
up
tent
to
Yard,
Grass,
Desert,
gravel
or
Beach
landscapes.
B.
The
starting
height
position
of
your
Gator
Jawns’
on
the
Pop
‐
up
legs
for
Deck
attachment
is
different
than
the
starting
positions
for
Landscapes.
This
is
due
to
the
different
anchoring
mechanisms
which
are
designed
for
maximum
hold.
The
Deck
Anchors
can
support
a
direct
vertical
pull
while
the
Ground
Stakes
utilize
the
angles
they
are
inserted
at
with
the
lower
height
position
of
the
Gator
Jawn
to
create
a
90
degree
pull
force
for
maximum
hold.
C.
Once the Gator Jawns have been pre
‐
assembled and
attached to your Pop
‐
up tent legs, lower the Jawns to
the Starting Position 10
‐
12” from the ground to the
bottom of the Gator Jawns as shown, turning the
wing nuts to hold in place but DO NOT TIGHTEN
yet, this is not the final position.
D. Pulling a ground stake from its storage
holder, extend the ground stake with
the attached cord out away from the
leg with the tip of the stake at a
45 to 60 degree angle pointing inward
directly towards the Pole / Leg.
The ground stake loop will want to rotate into the correct position with the loop
facing the pole / Leg.
E.
Loosen
the
wing
nuts,
Lift
the
Gator
Jawn
sliding
it
up
while
holding
the
Pop
‐
up
leg
down
‐
it
will
self
‐
center.
Pulling
the
Jawn
upward,
tighten
the
Wing
nuts
but
DO
NOT
OVERTIGHTEN.
F.
Repeat
for
the
other
Jawns
on
each
leg.
Enjoy
a
worry
free
secured
Pop
‐
up.
