will be suitable for many sites but for some types of
ground special pegs will be needed. Ask your dealer.
• Drive the pegs at a 45° angle away from the shelter into
the ground.
• Peg each guy line in-line with the seam it starts from.
Keep the following tips in mind while setting up the shelter:
• The figures provide a general overview of the set-up. The actual set-up
will vary slightly based on the model of shelter.
• Get help. The set-up is easier with more people.
• After standing the shelter upright, check the corner pegs and re-peg
if necessary. The groundsheet on the inside should be taut and in a
rectangular shape.
• Peg the guy lines so that the shelter is under tension without distorting
the shape.
• Check the guy lines from time to time to ensure adequate tension, if
necessary use the runners to adjust.
Set up the shelter as follows:
1. To protect the shelter from dirt and damage, lay down a groundsheet
or footprint before unpacking.

4. Proceed as shown to set up the shelter (fig. 1, page 3 to fig. 6,
