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

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

the door unzipped. Unfold the shock-corded pole sections,

and allow them to spring together. Make sure that the in-

sert of each pole section is fully inserted into the next pole

section. You will have two straight poles, two long arch

poles and one short arch pole for the vestibule (Figure 2).

Stake Out the Floor

Although the Stretch Tiros 2 is a completely free standing

tent, always stake out the floor for greater safety, especially

in windy conditions. First, stake each of the webbing loops

at the back of the tent at points G and H (Figure 3). Next,

move to the front of the tent, pull the webbing loops at

points A and B until the tent floor is square and semi-taut

(the tent poles may be damaged if the floor is too taut) and

stake them down. Finally, stake the sides down at points C,

D, E, and F pulling the floor semi-taut when inserting the

stakes into the ground (Figure 3).

Erect the Tent

Insert the tips of one of the straight poles into the grom-

mets at points A and H, and the tips of the second straight

pole into the grommets at points B and G (Figure 3). Pull

the two poles up so they intersect at point I and attach the

Clip-Loc

™

over the intersection of the poles (do not attach

the cord yet). Next, insert one of the long arch poles at

points C and D, arching the pole around the back of the

tent. Repeat this process with the remaining long arch pole

between points E and F. Now that all the poles have been

attached to the tent body, attach the 6 remaining Clip-Locs

to the intersecting pole sections. Hook the four Clip-Locs

nearest to the doors and the two Clip-Locs on each side of

the tent over the pole intersections with their openings

facing the middle of the tent. Now secure the Clip-Locs by

wrapping the cord in the direction crossing the open gate of

the clip. Wrap the cord around the pole intersection two to

four times, depending on desired firmness then secure the

cord into the groove on the backside of the Clip-Loc to hold

them in place (Figure 4). Now attach all remaining Swift

Clips to their corresponding poles for proper set up.

Fly Sheet

You now have one remaining short curved brow pole. Place

the ends of this pole in the buckets at points S and V, or T

and U. Drape the fly over the tent making sure the vesti-

Your Sierra Designs

maintain. Follow these in-

structions to pitch your tent

quickly, safely and easily.
