• At the opposite corner, grasp the web and 

simultaneously push the pole to form an arc. Insert the 
post end into the grommet on the corner stake-out 
web. Repeat with the second pole. See fig.3.

• Turn the fly right side up and drape it on 

the tent with the Eureka! logo over the 
door. Reach under the fly and wrap each 
Velcro® strap around a pole. See fig.8.

• Attach the web buckle from each corner 

of the fly to its mate on the corner tent 
web. Adjust the web to proper tension. 
See fig.9 & fig10.

• Raise the poles over the tent 

and place it in the desired 
location.

• Working your way around the 

tent, attach all the clips from 
the corners of fly to the poles. 

See fig.4.

• With the corner clips attached, square the tent. Use a 

metal skewer to stake out each corner web. 

See fig.5.

• Pull up stakes and open doors. Pull posts out of the grommets and 

push poles out of the sleeves. Collapse the tent poles and stow. 
Fold the tent and fly thirds. Roll up both towards the door and stow.

• Unpack the tent bag. Unfold the tent and lay it out, with 

the floor on the ground with a grommeted web in each 
corner. Pull the tent into a rough rectangle. Do not stake 
down the tent just yet; but in windy conditions, stake 
down one corner that faces into the wind.

• Assemble the shockcorded tent poles and fly rod. 

Carefully seat each section. Try to keep the poles from 
snapping together as this can damage the ends.

• At the front of the tent body at A, slide a pole diagonally 

across the tent, through the sleeves, to the  opposite side 
B. Follow the seam from sleeve to sleeve. Push the pole, 
don’t pull it. Continue with the second pole through its 
sleeves from C to D. See fig.1.

NOTE:
Do not drop tent bag or pole bag on its end. Do not bounce
