this video i'd like to show you how to set up coleman classic ten
model eighty five thirty four eight thirty
it's a pretty old tent
uh... and i haven't been able to find instructions on the internet
so i hope that these will help you for those but you don't have this time
so let's get started
take all of the a metal parts in the fiberglass parts put him for one side
and what you need to do is to stretch out and uh...
the the main part of the ten though orange park with the white groups
uh... sort that out
uh... and make it is good a rectangle is you can't
and set aside the the white
rain top
and will be doing that later
the first thing you need to do is to go to the metal parts
and you get a find
some small
fiberglass rods
the thinner ones
will be in
two sets of two
you'll have two that have metal ends
and two that don't
but you're gonna do is fit them together
uh... like so
so that you have a piece
that's about
I'd say roughly three...
three and a half feet long
and that
will be used to support the roof of the tent
what you do if you take this piece
and if you look upon
the white part of the roof of the tent there's
sort of a channel uh... there's an orange piece of material that's a channel
go ahead and put
one of the rods, the connected rods
through that
until the metal piece
is right in the center
there's an opening
that you can see see my fingers there
holding on to it
and and do that on both sides you see on the next slide here that
this is the the other side
then there's a larger
thicker
fiberglass piece.
what you want to do
is look at the center of the roof of the tent
-- the white part--
and you'll see a
channel
that's in orange
it's a...it's a material
and you go ahead and put the
thick fiberglass rod
through that channel
and what you end up with
is what you see
here...
you have
two longer, thinner
fiberglass connected rods
on either side of the channel
and perpendicular to that
you have the thicker
fiberglass rod
so now we're all set up
this is going to be the roof of the tent...
so next thing you want to do
is to find the...
they look like tripod
pieces
there's two of them...
what you want to do is to take those
if you open them up
as you see here on this slide
you have to sort of look
and you'll see that
one piece of each one...one of the rods on each one
is a place that you could fit
that
large fiberglass rod
and so go ahead
and one each end
of the fiberglass rods
go ahead and put these two pieces
so that they look like this
and what this
does
is
this is sort of the top
part of the the frame that holds up the tent
now this is kind of an interesting part this is the hardest part that's coming
up
if you look on the east tripods if you look at each end of them
facing down
should be sort of this "c" part if you look down
on the bottom
what your going to do
if you look in the next slide you see
that you're going to connect it
to the top...
or connect it to the
thinner fiberglass
connected rods--right at the metal parts
so you stick it on one side
but here's the hardest part about but the whole tent together
what you're gonna have to do is
push
when you do it on the other side
you can actually have to
bend the thinner
fiberglass rods
uh... so that you can fit
this on both sides
uh... there's various ways to do it you could probably have to figure out
how to do it
but it's it's almost like a bow and arrow
the big fiberglass rod and the
a tripod are almost like the bow
you're going to have to push it
against the one on the far side
and sort of make it up a "bow" and then you going to have to connect it
on the near side
so that you have a nice taut rood
and that's the purpose of this and that's the hardest part if you can
do this then
you're eighty percent the way there
okay the next part is you have a bunch of
okay i think it should be ten extra
pieces
left...they're small rods
but you
take and make
four
longer pieces
you have two smaller pieces left over but make four
longer pieces
and these will connect to the bottom part of the tripod
and what this does
this is going to hold
hold the roof
from the ground
now before you do that you may want to open the zipper a little bit...you see the..
coleman uh...
the zipper...
right there with the Coleman emblem--you may want to open that
up just a little bit so you could let air into the tent
and what you do is you take
on each side you're going to have
these extra two rods and you're going to push up
the tent
on one side and
at the bottom
uh... at the bottom on the floor is a little black
uh... piece of material that has two
ringlets in it
you're going to stick
the edge of the pole
inside the the ringlet closest
to the base of the floor
and then go ahead and do that on the other side
and this raises the tent up
and you can see here that you actually have a tent
and you probably could
stay in the tent just like that if you wanted to
the problem is..is that
you'll probably get rain in there
range
so what you do if you take those extra to rods
the state government
uh... and you look on the place that the tripod was there's a little place you
can stick each of the rods
you stick it in error
one on each side
and then go and get that white piece of material
thinking that white piece of material which is actually the rain
if you look
and explore on it
innocent turn
it almost looks like dell
but what it is
is a small channel
that you can't stick
that edge in the rod
into
fighting each side reportedly
the roof over the top of uh...
that chair
uh... one on each side holding it
and then you sort of all around
an adjusted
the big thing is is there some
uh... elastic bands there without such
what you do is you take
there's four one one on each side
and you take it
and he put it bluntly each side of
tent
black a piece of material on the bottom
put them on the
on the little rain that's
for their way through attack
for the big thing on the the roof
began to make sure
everyplace
that touches eight piece of metal
there's a piece of reinforced
material
and you need to make sure that that piece of reinforced material
is on top of
the uh...
metal parts
that's at ten
this is what it looks like when it's complete
what you want to do now is if you need to move it now's the time to do if i
could drop the woods or whatever coincide make sure everything looks ok
lay on the graphic fields level than what you want to do the final bank
mistake
it and you can use
four states six-day eight-state state what every so-called covalent
and put them around the edge to secure the chat
particularly some of the lenders uh... it's pretty heavy at night
the decibel detention
that stockholm intent
uh...
let me know if you have any questions and have a good camping trip
