• Assemble the three poles and lay them on the ground.
• Open flysheet on ground and position tent in desired direction.
• Locate black flat external pole sleeves on outside of flysheet and insert poles. The pole sleeve ends are colour matched to the poles.
• On one side, locate the ends of poles 1 and 2 into corresponding eyelets on pole anchor straps.
• Push poles into an arch from opposite side and locate the pole ends into corresponding eyelets.
• Insert the ends of pole 3 into the into corresponding eyelets in on pole anchor straps.
• Tighten the pole anchor straps and attach the flysheet clips to the poles.
• Peg out the tent at all 6 corners.
• Peg down the remaining flysheet pegging points.
• Peg out all guy lines using alloy Y pegs ensuring that attachment points are evenly tensioned.

Inner Tent (if previously removed)

• Open out inner tent inside flysheet and position doorways to correspond with the tents porches.
• Starting from the rear, attach the elasticated hooks on the groundsheet to corresponding rings on the flysheet anchor straps.
• Suspend the inner by linking the elastic loops to the clips on inside of flysheet.

Inner/Flysheet Combined Pitching

• The inner tent and flysheet can remain attached when pitching or packing. However, in humid or very wet weather, the underside of the flysheet may be coated with condensation. If this occurs, it may be advisable to detach the inner and pack it separately to avoid the inner tent becoming wet.
