These steps will help you effortlessly elevate your tent setup for any occasion.
Step-by-Step Instructions
Part 1: Attaching Back Wall
Step 1: Position Your Tent
- After setting up your tent in the desired location, ensure it’s stable and properly aligned.
Step 2: Prepare the Back Wall
- Lay out the back wall fabric and identify the side with Velcro attachments, which will connect to the bottom of the tent’s roof.
Step 3: Attach the Back Wall
- Starting from one end, align the Velcro attachments with the roof of the tent. Ensure the back wall is centered and secure as you attach the Velcro along the entire length.
Step 4: Secure the Side Straps
- Along the sides of the back wall, there are Velcro straps designed to attach to the tent’s legs. Secure these straps to ensure the back wall remains in place.
Step 5: Adjust as Needed
- If the back wall appears loose or uneven, adjust the tent’s legs slightly to achieve a tighter fit. This may be necessary, especially in windy conditions.
Part 2: Attaching Half Wall
Step 1: Assemble Support Bar
- Gather the support bar, two connectors, and the half wall fabric. Assemble the support bar by sliding one piece into the other until it clicks into place.
Step 2: Insert Support Bar
- Thread the support bar through the top pocket of the half wall fabric. This step is easier with two people, but manageable alone.
Step 3: Connect to Frame
- Position the support bar so that the drilled holes are horizontal. Attach one end of the support bar to the frame using a connector piece. Adjust the frame leg if necessary to ensure a proper fit.
Step 4: Choose Correct Connector
- Ensure you’re using the correct half wall connector pieces. These pieces have hinge points in different positions to accommodate the tent frame.
Step 5: Adjust Height
- Before tightening the connector, adjust the height of the support bar so that the bottom of the half wall is level with the ground.
Step 6: Secure with Velcro Straps
- Once everything is properly aligned, tighten the connector and secure the half wall to the tent’s legs using Velcro straps.
Part 3: Taking Down Walls
Step 1: Undo Straps and Hardware
- To remove the back wall or half wall, start by undoing the straps and hardware attachments.
Step 2: Disconnect Support Bar
- For the half wall, push the button on the support bar to disconnect the two pieces before removing it from the frame.
Step 3: Fold Walls Properly
- To prevent wrinkles and ensure compact storage, fold the walls neatly before storing them.
