Feed the length of the porch hoop pole through the porch hoop sleeve sewn on the tent. Slide the porch hoop pole onto the porch poles, engaging the second hole position. Attach the porch velcro on each side of the tent. Guide Tent (p/n 102434) -St ep Fi v e - 8 To “set”the tent, grasp the tent material at the rear of the shelter and pull it downward. Observe the porch area of the tent lifting accordingly as you pull. When the U-Channel molding is correctly installed, the porch hoop pole will lightly touch the floor. To achieve this condition, start by finding the center of the molding. From behind the unit, pull the midpoint of the tent downward and fold the tent material under the base lip. Press the midpoint of the molding over the tent material and base lip. Continue pressing outward in both directions until you have secured about twelve inches of molding onto the base. Having temporarily secured the tent to the base, take a walk around the unit. Readjust the molding until you have verified the proper porch hoop pole position and also that the tent sides and corners are properly proportioned. When satisfied, continue applying the molding around the shelter, one direction from center and then the other, pulling the material as you go so that surface is relatively wrinkle-free and snug. Use a side cutters to trim the ends of the molding if they are not equal relative to base. Reinstall the rear adjustable spreader pole to tighten the fit of the tent. If everything still looks good, secure the molding with the #6 phillips screws. Evenly space them about every ten to twelve inches, and also put a screw in the center of both corners. Since there aren’t any predrilled holes, it's advisable to use a powered driver for this operation. 6”6” IMPORTANT: Trim the edge of the molding so it ends approximately 6 inches behind the centerline seam on both sides of the shelter. -Ti p s f o r U se - 9 Folding and transporting your Fish Trap is easy: . Unsnap the rear spreader pole and lay it in the bottom of the base. .Push the spring buttons and retract each hoop, starting with the rear hoop and working towards the front. Rotate all retracted hoops to the resting position. Tuck the tent into the base and between the hoops so that no material is left hanging on the ground for transport. .Cover with the Travel Cover* (an optional but recommended accessory to help prolong the life of the unit). Tow the unit out to your favorite fishing spot! (NOTE: continuous pulling behind an ATV or snowmobile may result in premature wear of the base. We recommend the optional Wear Strips* be mounted to the base of your Fish Trap). Make sure your Ice Shelter is completely dried out before storing for long periods of time. Store your Ice Shelter in a cool, dry place. Keep away from rodents. *See our accessory catalog or for these items and more! -S a f et y I nst r u ct i o ns - Please fully understand and follow all safety instructions as outlined.
