CLASSIC PLUS FRAME TENTS

16.

When raising the frame off the ground, be sure to lift as evenly as possible. Do not allow the frame to be

higher in the center than at the ends. Do not lift the frame any higher than necessary to attach the Legs in

their 7-foot position. It is recommended that you raise the legs to their 8-foot or 9-foot position after the

cover is squared and strapped to the frame.

STAKES AND GUY ROPES

17.

Place Stakes approximately 5-feet out from each leg. Drive each

Stake vertically into the ground so that approximately 6" of the

stake is showing. (See staking diagram)

18.

Attach Guy Ropes or Ratchet Straps to each Leg and Stake.

Secure corner legs first and then the side legs.

GUY ROPES: Loop the rope through the exterior ring on each

Corner and Mid-Rafter Fitting. Tie the bottom ends of the rope

to the stake using a Double Loop Clove Hitch knot (See knot

diagram) . Tighten by pulling on the excess rope. Fold and secure

excess rope to the stake. Repeat at each leg and stake.

RATCHET STRAPS: Attach the ratchet buckle with the loop

strap to the stakes by turning the 6" loop at the end of the

ratchet inside out and pull the strap through the loop to create

a noose and pull tight over the stake. Take the loose strap and

run it through the ring on Corner Fitting and pull it through the

reel bars slot of the ratchet (ratchet buckle needs to have the

handle facing upward). Pull the loop strap back towards the tent

approximately 18". Hold the strap with one hand and begin to

crank the ratchet handle back and forth. Roll excess strapping

and secure in the ratchet buckle. Repeat at each leg and stake.

19.

For securing the tent on a hard surface, such as concrete, where stakes cannot be used, secure the tent legs

to a ringed sandbag cover filled with a 60 lb. sand bag or a filled 55-gallon barrel. Secure with same guy rope

or ratchet procedure as outlined above.

The installation of the tent framing and cover is now complete. If desired, Sidewalls, Liners and Drapes may be

installed.
