SHELTER FRAME/SKIN INSTALLATION
13. Assemble the two sets of door spreader poles by sliding male
half (69357) into female half (69356) and snapping in place
with snap button. When complete, take (1) spreader pole
assembly and clip one end to the front upper frame pole and
the other end to the lower frame pole. Do the same on the
opposite side with the other spreader pole assembly. SEE
FIGURE 8
14.Extend the rear top cross brace pole (15554) and snap into
the in-use position. Install back spreader pole (68422) into
hole pre-drilled in the back lip of the sled. Clip the other end
to the rear top cross brace pole. SEE FIGURE 8
15. Fully extend the remaining cross brace poles and attach the
remaing spreader poles (69679/69331) to the cross brace
poles. SEE FIGURE 8
Note: The longer of the two remaining spreader poles should
be placed in the front section of the sled. This is the only way
this assembly will go together.
16. With all of the frame and spreader poles in the “in use” position
it is now time to drape the shelter skin over top of the frame.
Start by lifting the rear of the shelter skin over the top of the
front frame support. Make sure that you are evenly working
the shelter skin over the supports. Continue working the shel-
ter skin over the rest of the frame supports until the shelter
skin lies evenly over the entire shelter.
Note: Attaching the skin can be a difficult task and is
easiest with two people to ensure proper installation
and desired fit.
17. Once the shelter skin is on the frame, move to the inside of
the shelter and attach the hook and loop retainers to the
frame supports. There will be three hook and loop retainers
per frame support.
18. After attaching all of the hook and loop retainers you are
ready to install the edge trim to the rear of the shelter. Move
to the outside of the shelter and start by identifying the edge
trim piece (69654) from the parts box. Locate the center of
the edge trim piece by folding it in half. Line up the center
of the edge trim to the best of your ability with the center of
the rear of the shelter. SEE FIGURE 9
19. Pull the skin taut and push the edge trim over the lip of the
sled with the shelter skin between the two. It is important to
keep the skin taut and work the edge trim evenly around both
sides of the shelter until all edge trim is in place. SEE FIGURE
9
Note: When pulling the shelter skin tight, DO NOT lift the
lower frame support off the ground. Make sure all spread-
er poles were properly installed before the edge trim was
attached to ensure a proper fit. Using a rubber mallet may
be helpful while attaching the edge trim to the sled lip.
