Tent Assembly
Step 1: Unroll the tent and lay it flat on the truck bed.
Stand on the truck bed and position the tent upright with the center mechanism at the top.
Note: The tent has two long legs and two short legs. Rotate the tent so the two long legs face the cab of your truck.
Unfold the legs of the tent downwards so the long legs rest on the cab, while the shorter legs lay flat on the truck bed.
Step 2: Secure the hooks to the truck body.
Locate the four adjustable straps, one on each corner of the tent.
Attach the hooks to the truck body to secure your tent.
Tighten the straps.
Tip: If the truck bed is too long, route the front straps through the gap beneath the tailgate door and hook them underneath the truck.
Step 3: Locate the three rain flaps.
There are two rain flaps on the sides of the tent.
Drape the side rain flaps over the sides of the truck body.
Tip: Do not attach any hooks to the truck body at this stage.
Step 4: Standing on the tailgate, lift the two roof poles furthest from you until they pass your eye level.
Tip: If needed, place your feet under the tent fabric to help reach the roof poles.
Once they’re past your eye level, grab the two roof poles closer to you and lift them upward.
The inner roof poles will automatically push down and lock the tent when fully extended.
IMPORTANT: For the tent to lock properly, ensure the inner roof poles are horizontal to the ground. Failure to do so may result in the tent collapsing under minimal wind.
Step 5: Extend the two tent legs at the tailgate until you hear a click.
Step 6: Attach the rain flaps.
Secure the two side rain flaps to the truck body using the two hooks on each side.
Locate the back rain flap and drape it over the cab.
Secure the back rain flap to the truck body using two hooks on each side.
Step 7: Open the roof vents.
There are two air vents on the roof.
Reach your arms through the side window to access the roof vents.
Open each flap and attach the Velcro to the bottom of the flap. The Velcro will hold the flap open.
Tent Disassembly
Step 1: Remove all hooks from the truck body.
Step 2: Standing on the tailgate, push the yellow locking buttons to release the tent legs in the front.
Push the leg poles back to shorten them after pressing the yellow locking buttons.
Step 3: Squeeze the two roof poles furthest from you together to unlock the tent.
Tip: If needed, place your feet under the tent fabric to help reach the top roof poles.
Step 4: Lay the tent flat on the truck bed and fold the legs upward.
Step 5: Lay the folded tent on the truck bed and gather all the loose tent fabric towards you.
Step 6: Roll the loose tent fabric towards the center mechanism.
Step 7: Place the tent back into the tent bag. Once inside, roll it tightly to secure the tent in the bag, then wrap the bag closed.
Note: Ensure all components are clean & dry before placing them in the tent bag. Store the tent at home in a clean, dry area.
