How to Set Up a Coleman Tent

Step 1
Choose a flat area to set up your tent. Clear the ground of rocks, branches, etc. so they don’t tear your tent. A shady spot will protect you from direct sunlight and extend the life of your tent.

Step 2
Take out your tent and lay it flat on the ground. Place your tent in the direction you want the door to face.

Step 3
Arrange the tent poles at the top of their path, insert the pins in the corners of the tent, and let the poles pass through the correct pole channels until you can insert the pins into the poles.

Step 4
Secure each corner of the tent with stakes through the rings on the tent floor. Pull the tent and make it taut. Make sure the tent does not move or get blown away by the wind.

Step 5
Secure the edges of the tent with frame clips.

Step 6
Set the rainfly poles using the interlocking shock cord poles and insert the reinforcement pockets. Attach the rainfly to the rainfly poles. Attach the elastic loop of the rainfly to the loop at the corner of the tent. Secure the rainfly with the attachment.

Thus, your Coleman tent is set up.
