WARNING

Keep all flame and heat sources away from the tent fabric. The tent is made with flame-resistant fabric which meets CPAI-84 specifications. This does not make it fireproof.
The fabric will burn if left in contact with any flame source. The application of any foreign substance to the tent fabric may render the flame-resistant properties ineffective.
To prevent carbon monoxide from entering the vehicle and tent area, do not run the engine, do not cook inside the tent, and do not use a gas heater in the tent. Carbon monoxide is dangerous to your health.
Engine must be off and exhaust must be fully cooled before tent installation and use.

TENT SET UP

NOTE: Do not attach pole clips until all poles are in place in their pockets (step 7). Failure to do so will create too much tension and may cause pole to break.

For an easier assembly, set the tent up on the ground, completing steps 1-3 last.

Lay the tent flat inside the bed of the truck, ensuring the front door is at the tailgate.
Locate the tent side straps (3 per side) and loosely attach each to the truck’s body.
Locate the tent tailgate straps (3). Slide the back 3 straps between the truck box and the tailgate (you may need to lift the tailgate). Locate the front straps at the end of the tailgate and connect to the corresponding back strap under the tailgate.
Assemble the tent poles by unfolding each section.
POLE| LOCATION
---|---
Black Poles| Corner-to-Corner
Green Pole| Front-to-Back
Grey Pole| Vestibule/Tailgate
Insert the poles into the corresponding color sleeve in the following order (do not place the poles in the corner pockets at this time):
• Insert the BLACK pole diagonally, corner-to-corner on the roof of the tent. Repeat with the other black pole.
• Insert the GREEN pole front-to-back on the roof of the tent.
• Insert the GREY pole side-to-side at the front (tailgate) of the tent. Ensure the tailgate pole is even on both sides.

NOTE: The poles may get stuck in the sleeve. Do not force them – gently guide the pole through the fabric sleeve.
Insert each pole into the corresponding colored pockets in the following order:
• GREEN (front-to-back) pole
• BLACK (corner-to-corner) poles
• GREY (side-to-side tailgate) pole
NOTE: Ensure tailgate pole is set-up on the outside of the tailgate wires. (If pole is set up inside the tailgate wires it will create too much tension and may cause pole to break).
Once the tent is fully raised, attach the pole clips to the poles.
If the tent straps on the side of the truck are too loose, pull to tighten.
Ensuring not to make them too tight.
To install the gear loft, place each corner hook of the gear loft into the loop located on the ceiling of the tent.
ATTACHING THE RAINFLY
Locate the front of the rainfly that goes over the door (it will have a black Backroads tag on the side). Drape the rainfly over the tent.
Secure the rainfly strap clips to the tent (2 per side and 2 at the tailgate) and tighten if necessary.
