Setting Up Your Tent

1. Lay out the tent body with the blue floor toward the ground. Note the colored corner webbing and large gate-lock clips.

2. Assemble the poles by fully inserting the end of one pole section into the aluminum ferrule of the adjoining pole section. Repeat until all of the poles are assembled.

6. At the BLUE corner webbing:Insert one tip of the remaining long pole into grommet on the Blue webbing at the side of the tent body. Arc the pole across the tent and insert the other end into the Blue webbing. This pole will be over the front door of the tent.Clip the large gate-lock clips marked by blue ribbon to the juctions where this pole crosses the two main poles.

7. Clip the remaining small clips over the poles. Notice that the two large clips in the front and two small clips in the back have a grommet in the webbing. These will be the attachment points for the fly poles.

3. Insert one of the long poles into one of the mesh sleeves at the top of the tent. The pole should slide through until it is seen on the other end of the sleeve. Lay the pole on top of the tent. Repeat with another long pole and the remaining sleeve.

4. Starting at the corner marked with Yellow webbing: insert pole end into the grommet in the webbing. Repeat at other corner marked with Yellow webbing. This will arc the pole in the mesh sleeve. Caution: At this stage the poles will be under tension. Please use caution working with poles under tension.

Using a Footprint with this TentWe recommend using a footprint with this tent to protect the tent floor from abrasion. A custom designed footprint is available for this tent. To order call 800-CAMPLLB or go to llbean.com.

The footprint is designed to be slightly smaller then the overall size of the floor. This limits the possibility of rainwater getting between the tent and the footprint.1. Lay footprint on ground with the coated side up. 2. Lay tent body on top of the footprint, lining up color-coded webbing. Set up tent according to instructions. 3. Insert the main tent pole tips through the tent corner webbing and into the corner webbing on the footprint.

Attaching High Wind GuylinesIt is recommended that you guyout your tent in high winds. Guylines with preattached tensioners are included in the stake bag of the tent. The tent fly has attachment loops sewn into the seams for these lines. 1. Tie the end of the guyline without the slider to the loop on the tent fly (fig. 1). 2. Pull the loop from the tensioner and insert the stake in the loop. Stake out the line approximately 3-4 feet from the tent corner . 3. Slide the tensioner along the line until the line is tight (fig. 2).

9. Spread the rain fly on the ground and locate the L.L.Bean logo. This is the front of the fly and will align to the right of the front door as you face the tent. Note the hook and loop tabs on the inside of the fly. Drape the fly over the tent.

13. Clip the side release buckle on the corners of the fly to the matching webbing and buckle on the corner of the tent. Tighten the webbing by pulling on the loose end.

12. Locate the six (6) small hook and loop webbing tabs on the inside of the fly. Attach these webbing tabs to the poles so that the fly is securely attached to the tent body.

14. Stake out the fly by inserting a stake into the black webbing on the bottom edge of the fly. Adjust the tension of the fly by pulling the loose end toward the stake. A tight fly will shed rain better and improve ventilation within the tent.

8. Stake down the tent. Start at one corner and insert a stake in the large loop of the corner webbing. Working your way around the tent, stake each corner webbing so that the tent floor lays tight and relatively flat.

10. Locate the small sleeve on the inside front of the fly and insert the short straight fiberglass pole. When fully inserted there should be an equal amount of pole extending from each side of the sleeve. Flex the pole and insert one end into the grommet in the webbing of the large clip. This pole should be below the main pole that is over the door. Repeat with other end of pole.

11.At the rear of the tent repeat step 9 with the remaining short fly pole.
