To “set” the tent, grasp the tent material at the rear of the shelter and pull it downward. Observe the
porch area of the tent lifting accordingly as you pull. When the U-Channel Molding is correctly
installed, the Porch Hoop Pole will lightly touch the floor.
To achieve this condition, start by finding the center of the Molding. From behind the unit, pull the
midpoint of the Tent downward and fold the Tent material under the lip of the Base. Then press the
midpoint of the molding over the Tent material and Base lip. Continue pressing outward in both
directions until you have secured about twelve inches of material to the base
Having temporarily secured the tent to the base, take a walk around the unit. Readjust the Molding
until you have verified the proper Porch Hoop Pole position and also that the Tent sides and corners
are properly proportioned.
When satisfied, continue applying the Molding around the shelter, one direction from center and then
the other, pulling the material as you go so that surface is relatively wrinkle-free and snug. You may
need to trim the Molding ends if they are not equal.
Install the Front, Rear, and Roof Spreader Poles as indicated. Adjust the Front and Rear Spreader
Poles to tighten the fit of the tent.
If everything still looks good, secure the Molding with the included #6 Phillips Screws. Evenly space
them about every ten to twelve inches, and also put a screw in the center of both corners. Since there
aren’t any predrilled holes, it's advisable to use a powered driver for this operation.
