Tried to attach a scanned copy of the instructions but not a technical person and was unable to do it...sorry. So here are the instructions!

Spread out the inner tent and place it with the door facing the desired direction, avoid placing the tent directly under trees, and position it with the end facing the direction of the wind,for the best results in windy conditions.

This tent should be erected by at least two people!

Assemble all of the poles by interlocking shockcorded poles. make sure that before pushing the poles through the pole sleeves that all doors are closed. Push the poles in to their pole sleeves marked with matching colours- the three longest across the middle, the three with bent corneres at the sides and end.

The tent can now be raised. For this we recommend that you are at least two people to do it, as one person should be inside in the centre pushing the tent poles upwards.

Start with the longest pole across the middle. Place one end of the poles down over the metal pin fastened in the ring. Go to the opposite end of the pole and gradually apply pressure to the pole forming an arch until you are able to insert the other pole end over the pin. Repeat this with all 6 poles. And clamp all hooks onto the poles.

Now you are able to position the tent as you require by pegging down the fabric loops attached to the metal ring. Spread out the fly sheet and draw it over the inner tent and secure the velcro bands on the inside of the fly sheet to the poles and then secure the hooks to the rings.

Now push the last remaining Durawrap pole through the pole sleeve on the fly sheet in front of the tent. Place the Durawrap pole onto the steel pole.

Place the steel poles at their respective sides over the last metal pin. Now peg the tent down all the way round.

Finally secure the tent against strong winds with the pre atteched guy lines and pegs.

Phew thank goodness! Hope this is useful and good luck with your tent. Enjoy

We also pegged between each pod before putting poles through. I am only 5' 2" and managed to push dome up inside while hubby did the outside.

Yes I am 5ft 2 and usually get to go inside to do the push up thing! Must say that once the tent is up its a very cosy yet spacious tent that serves our family well. After three seasons of camping with it we are getting much better and faster at putting it up.
