SET UP INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT:
When you first open your shelter, you will see the poles on the OUTSIDE of the
shelter.
Once set up, the poles should be on the INSIDE of the tent. Your screen tent
is folded in half for storage. Only pull outward on the hub pull (loops) on
the exterior of the tent. IMPORTANT: When setting up your shelter, poles
should be on the INSIDE of the tent. Only pull outward on the hub pull (loops)
on the exterior of the tent. No tools are needed for the setup of your screen
tent.
SET UP INSTRUCTIONS CONTINUED
Step 1: Unzip the storage bag completely and remove the shelter. Use care not to misplace the instructions and the stake and rope pouch. It is advised to store your stakes, ropes and pouch in the carry bag until they’re needed.
Step 2 : Pick the tent up directly from the carry bag and stand it on the center metal hub. (Photo 2)
Step 3 : With the screen tent standing up on the black center hub hold one corner of the material and let the screen fall open until you see the roof lying flat with the Clam logo facing up. If it does not fall open naturally, unfold the tent until you can see the roof panel lying flat. At this point the poles should be on the inside of the tent with the roof facing up. (Photo 3)
Step 4 : With the poles on the inside, reach for the handle at the center
of one wall and pull until the section pops out. Hold the roof line with the
opposite hand.
Step 5 : Continue around the shelter repeating the previous step until
all wall panels are erect.
Step 6 : Enter through the door and push up on the center ceiling hub
until the ceiling pops up. (Photo 5)
Step 7 (optional): Insert the vertical rods on either side of the screen
tent’s door. Remove the Velcro retaining loop securing the pole to the
adjacent wall.
Once freed, install one end of the rod into the other’s end to make it one
long rod. Place the bottom of the rod in the pocket located at the bottom of
the panel directly below where the rods are mounted. Secure the rod with the
Velcro loop. Repeat on the other side. It is recommended to use these if any
wind is present. (Photos 6 & 7)
Step 8: Install securing stakes on the tent. The stakes are designed to
be used on the inside grommets or the outside tie downs. If there is little to
no wind, stakes may be used in the eyelet in each corner of the screen tent.
Place the tip of the stake on the inside of the eyelet and drive it into the
ground so the hook catches the eyelet and holds the tent in place.
If wind is present you must use the outside tie downs. Secure the tent by
tying one end of the provided strings on each metal loop on the outside of the
hub and staking the other end. (Photo 8)
Using the built in Wind Panels:
**Step 1: Locate the tie strings mounted on each end of the wind
panels. Untie and let the panel fall down.
Step 2: Locate the hub strap on the center of the wall and pull it
through the grommet on the wind panel.
Step 3: Zip down the zippers located on each side of the wind panels.
Finish with securing the Velcro tabs on the outside of the zipper.
Step 4:** To store the wind panels, simply detach the Velcro tabs and unzip
the wind panels. Roll the panel back up and tie with tie strings.
TAKE DOWN INSTRUCTIONS
Step 1 : Remove all the stakes from the interior and exterior of the
tent.
Step 2 : If used, remove the vertical door support rods from pockets at
the bottom of the panel, pull apart, and refasten them with the Velcro straps
located diagonally on the panels next to each side of the door. (Photo 1)
Step 3 : Push in on the walls in from the outside of the tent to collapse
the wall panels. Do this to all wall panels until the tent is collapsed.
(Photo 2)
Step 4 : Push down on one of the roof poles until the roof is collapsed.
(Photo 3)
Step 5 : Once the shelter is completely collapsed grab one corner of the
tent and fold it in half on itself. Once in half, you can now condense the
shelter to fit into the carry bag. (Photo 4)
Step 6 : Carefully lift and insert into the carry bag. Pay close
attention not to twist or distort the hubs or fabric while inserting into bag.
Place stakes and tie down ropes into their bag and place the stake bag into
the carry bag.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How do I set up my screen tent?
A: Please review the set up and take down instructions in your owner’s manual or go to www.QuickSetShelters.com to watch an instructional video on the proper and simplest way to set up and take down a screen tent. Videos can be found under your shelter’s model on our website.
Q: Do you offer any accessories for Quick-Set Screen Tents?
A: Yes! We carry other items that are great additions to your screen tent. Some of what we offer includes fan/light combos, quick pack tables, LED hub lights and more! Check these accessories out at www.QuickSetShelters.com.
Q: Is there anything that can be put on the outside of the tent to
increase the water resistance?
A: Our screen tents are water resistant, not waterproof. You can use any waterproofing product you would traditionally use on a tent to add an extra layer of protection. An example of this is “Camp Dry” which is sold in most sporting goods stores. The seams have been stitched with waterproof taping but you may apply “Seam Grip” to the seams of the shelter if you wish to add additional protection. Please be advised that applying additional products to the shelter may alter the fire retardant properties.
Q: Can I use anything to increase the UV protection?
A: Our screen tents are treated with a UV protectant coating when they are manufactured. If you wish to add additional protection you may use any product intended for use on a traditional tent. Please keep in mind these screen tents are not intended to be permanent structures and it’s best to take them down when not in use. Please be advised that applying additional products to the shelter may alter the fire retardant properties.
Q: Would it be best to completely dry my screen tent before storing if
it gets wet?
A: It is recommended to dry your tent completely before storing. If not dried completely, moisture may cause damage to the tent.
Q: How do I wash my screen tent?
A: We recommend using a gentle laundry soap that has been diluted with warm water and use a wash cloth to spot clean any spots that need it. If needed, you can use a bleach and water solution (10 parts water to 1 part bleach) to get rid of any mildew smell.
Q: Can I order replacement parts and accessories from your website?
A: Yes! If you would like to order replacement parts visit our website, www.QuickSetShelters.com.
