post on the bottom of the T-pole. Lift the pole and place pole bottom over the pin attached to the D-
ring at the bottom of the tent.

The 9x8 tents are equipped with adjustable upright poles. This is to allow for compact storage.
Lengthen the uprights by loosening the thumbscrews and extending the inner pole. Adjust the upright
poles so the tent is taut
—do not stretch too tight. Tighten thumbscrews finger-tight. To loosen, first
take the weight off of the pole, then turn thumb screw. Avoid pinch points.
WARNING
Hold poles firmly. Avoid pinch points.
