ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS  
FOR THE GRAND MANAN 7 TENT
Component List: 1 Tent,   2 Tent Poles,  1 Carry Bag,  1 Pole Bag,  
1 Stake Bag w/ Stakes and Guys,  1 Rain Fly,   1 Fly Rod 
Assemble the fly:
• Once the tent is securely staked down, spread the 
rain fly out, upside down. Find the web pockets at 
the top of the clear window. Place the ends of the 
fly rod into the pockets. 
• Wrap the Velcro® tab around 
the rod to hold in place. See 
Fig.6 & 7
Secure the fly to the tent: 
• Turn the fly right side up and drape 
it over the top of the tent. Align the 
orange web on the fly to the orange 
web on the tent. The fly rod should 
poke out over the doors. Reach 
under the fly and wrap the Velcro® 
straps through the openings in the 
sleeves and around the pole to 
secure the fly to the tent frame. See 
fig. 8.
• Also attach the wide Velcro® straps 
to the patches on the sleeves at 
each corner elbow. See fig. 9
• Locate the long adjustable web/buckle 
assemblies on the underside at each corner 
of the fly.  Attach these buckles to their 
mates on the corner stake-out webs and 
adjust to proper tension.  See fig.10
• There are also web/ring assemblies on the 
bottom at each corner of the fly. Slide these 
rings over the same stakes that hold the 
corner web loops. Adjust as necessary. See 
fig.11
• Grasp the web/rings on the vestibule and 
pull out and away from the tent. Stake these 
down and adjust tension. See fig.12
Feature:
The Grand Manan has exceptional air flow. 
Detach the web rings from the stakes. Roll up the 
fly sides for 4-way ventilation. Secure in place with 
the attached loops and toggles.
NOTE:  In strong winds, tie extra cords ( included ) to 
the storm rings on the fly and stake down. Adjust the 
slider so that the cords are tight.  See fig.13
Take down: 
Pull up stakes and open doors. Remove the fly and 
fly rod. Push poles out of the sleeves. Collapse all 
poles and stow in the pole bag. Fold the tent/fly. 
Roll up both along with the pole bag towards a 
door. Stow all in the main bag.
NOTE:  Do not drop tent bag or pole bag on its end. Do not bounce 
tent bag on its end to get the tent out. These actions may cut the 
shock cord and/or damage the pole ends.
Rev  B  4-09
Raise the tent:
• Unroll and unfold the tent and lay it on the ground. If it’s windy, 
stake down one front corner into wind. 
• Assemble all of the shock corded poles. Keep the pole sections 
from snapping together, as this can damage the pole ends. 
Make certain each plain end has been properly seated into the 
metal ferrule. Lay the poles side by side and divide according to 
length. Long for the tent and short for the fly. 
• Insert one of the two long 
poles into each sleeve. The 
poles run corner to corner 
across at the center through 
the sleeves . See fig 1 & 2

• The tent is now freestanding. Place the tent in the 
desired location and stake it down through the 
corner web loops. Stake the opposite corners while 
applying tension to square the tent and smooth 
any floor wrinkles. It works best to do this before 
you add the fly. See fig.5 
YOUR  TENT IS READY!

• Insert the post end of a pole into a 
grommet on the corner stake-out web. 
See fig.3
• 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 to 
maintain tension. Do this again with 
the second long pole and the other 
pair of corner webs. See fig.4
