Clips are the Clips without cords). Passing the arched pole

over the two long poles, place its ends into the grommets at

points F and G. Once the arched pole is in place; hook the

Clip-Locs at points H and I, with the open gate of the clip

pointing towards the rear of the tent. Now attach the cord at

points H, I & E, by wrapping the cord in the direction cross-

ing the open gate of the Clip-Loc. Wrap the cord around the

pole intersection two to four times, depending on desired firm-

ness, then slide the cord into the groove on the backside of the

clip to hold it taut (Figure 3).

Fly Sheet

Drape the fly over the tent making sure the zippered, vestibule

end is over the door (Figure 4). At points H, I, L and M on

the inside of the tent fly you will find 1" side release buckles.

Attach these points to their mates on the tent body. At point

N on the fly you will find a Velcro

®

attachment. Attach this

to the apex of the arched pole. Now at points A, B, C, D, G

and F you will find 1" LadderLocs with adjustable grommeted

webbing straps. Slip the grommets under the pole ends at

these points (Figure 5). By first attaching the blue webbing

strap on the rainfly to a blue webbing strap on the body (point

B), you are guaranteed a fast, proper rainfly set-up every time.

Now working your way around the tent a few times, tighten

these adjustable straps until you have achieved the desired

tautness. Point O may be staked out to increase ventilation.

Lastly, stake out points Q and R to form your vestibule.

First Pitch

In order to familiarize yourself with your new tent, we

suggest that you “test pitch” it before embarking on a

wilderness trip.

Select a Site

Look for a level spot that is protected from the wind in

order to ensure sleeping comfort. Clear the area of debris such as

sharp stones and sticks which might abrade or puncture the tent

floor. Choose an area that will drain well when it rains.

Unfurl the Tent and Assemble the Poles

Unfurl the tent and lay the tent floor flat on the ground with

the door unzipped. Carefully unfold the shock corded pole sec-

tions and allow them to slide together. Do not allow the poles

to snap together: This can lead to serious pole damage. Make

certain that the insert of each pole section is fully inserted into

the next pole section (Figure 1). You will have two straight

poles of equal length and one arched pole.

Stake out the Tent Floor

The Omega Light is a completely freestanding tent. It is not

necessary to stake down the tent floor in order to pitch it. Howev-

er, we recommend that the tent be staked down at points A, B, C,

D, F & G for stability, especially in high winds (Figure 2).

Erect the Tent

Insert the pole tips of one of the two straight poles into the

grommets at points A and C (Figure 2). Insert the pole tips of

the other pole into the grommets at points B and D. Next hook

the Clip-Loc

™

at point E (do not attach the cord yet). Following

the tent seams between points A and C, and B and D attach all

of the Swift Clips

™

to their corresponding tent poles (Swift
