Get some help lifting your tent 

onto the vehicle with another 

person or an overhead hoist. We 

do not recommend doing it by 

yourself. 

• 

Pick up the tent and bring it to 

the side of the vehicle. Holding 

the front and back, lift it up to the 

height of the rack. Slide the tent 

across the rack until you have both 

mounting rails on the crossbars 

or rack that you have 

(Figure 

B). Don’t worry about it being 

completely centered yet.

• 

Stand at the back of the tent 

where your straps are located. Tilt 

the back of the tent up and slide in 

2 Sliders (with bolts) per mounting 

rail into the centre portion of 

the tent, and between your two 

mounting rails (4 total). Let the 

tent down softly. 

(Figure C)

• 

Now walk around and insert 1 

Slider into the mounting rail on 

each corner. These will sit on the 

outside of your crossbars/rack.

• 

Next you need to centre the tent, 

finding the desirable location – it is 

OK to have some overhang to the

Stand at the front of your vehicle 

and make sure it is centered side 

to side. Then repeat this standing 

at the back of your vehicle. 

• 

Keep repeating until you are 

satisfied.

• 

Once we have found the desired 

mounting location, we must install 

our mounting brackets. Start on 

any corner. 

• 

Take one of the sliders from inside 

the centre channel, and the one 

from the outside, and attach the 

lower bracket with two nuts. Do 

not tighten yet – only thread them 

Assemble and tighten the 

mounting brackets.
