ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
FOR THE ENTERTAINER SHELTER
Component List:
1 Tent Canopy, 1 Crown, 4 Shockcorded BLUE Rafters,
4 Shockcorded RED Rafters, 8 Shockcorded GREEN Rafters,
4 Corner Brackets, 4 Mid Brackets, 8 Corner/Mid Poles,
8 Adjustable Pole Extensions, 8 Baseplates, 8 Sets Bolts, Washers & Nuts,
8 Guy Ropes with Sliders, 8 Stakes, 3 Stow Bags
NOTE: This is a large structure. For ease of set-up and personal safety, we recommend that you have help !
Assembly: See drawing on reverse side
1 Unpack all four boxes and separate the components.
Leave the canopy folded until the roof rafters are up
2. Locate The Crown Assembly. Lay it on the ground, near
the center of where you want the shelter to stand. Spread
the arms and orient the crown so that the BLUE tipped arms
point to the corners
3. Assemble The Rafters. Each rafter is two sections that are
shockcorded together. The roof rafters are either BLUE or
RED tipped and the perimeter rafters are GREEN tipped. Fit
the centers together, making sure that the detent buttons
are fully seated into the holes opposite section. Divide the
rafters according to color
4. Add The Roof Rafters To The Crown Arms. Both the
arms and rafters are color coded. Fit the BLUE tipped
corner rafters onto the BLUE tipped arms and fit the RED
tipped mid rafters onto the RED tipped arms. Again, ensure
that the rafters fully capture the buttons to secure
5. Add The Brackets To The Rafters.
There are 4 corner brackets. These have two GREEN
tipped tubes and one BLUE tipped tube. Slide the BLUE
tube over the end of a BLUE corner rafter and engage the
buttons to secure. Repeat with the remaining corners
There are 4 mid brackets. These have two GREEN tipped
tubes and one RED tipped tube. Slide the RED tube over the
RED mid rafter and secure. Repeat with the remaining mids
6. Add The Perimeter Rafters To The Brackets. Work your
way around the frame adding the perimeter rafters as you
go. Fit and secure GREEN to GREEN until you have created
a square, freestanding frame. NOTE: If it appears the last
rafters will not reach to the corners, walk to the center and
lift the crown. This will pull the sides in to reduce the
distance between corners
7. Attach The Canopy To The Frame. Unfold the canopy.
Drag it, top up, square to one side of the frame. Pull the
canopy up and over the frame until the peak vent covers the
crown and the corners align to the frame. At each corner,
reach under the canopy and wrap the attached Velcro®
tabs around the bracket to secure. This will keep the
canopy from sliding off as you raise the frame
8. Assemble The Poles.
Use the bolts/nuts/washers to attach the baseplates to
the lower pole sections. Take care to finger tighten only. Too
much torque could deform the tube and make removal
difficult
Slide the top pole sections into the lower sections and
engage the buttons to secure. Make sure to maintain the
same height for all poles
9. Raise The Assembly.
Move to the center on one side of the canopy and raise
the mid bracket. Connect the top of a pole assembly into
the bottom tube of the mid bracket. Again, make sure the
buttons are captured and secure. Next, go to the corners
on this same side and connect pole assemblies to the
bottom tube of both corner brackets.
Continue to raise the remaining sides and connect all
remaining assemblies.
• Step back at a corner and look down the row of poles.
Then, align the baseplates to straighten the row.
10. Attach The Fabric To The Frame. Move to under the
canopy and working your way around the perimeter, wrap
all of the Velcrtabs over the tubes to secure the fabric
to the frame
11. Stake It Down. There is a D-Ring sewn at each corner
on the canopy top. Tie two (2) guy ropes to one of these
rings. Pull one of the guy ropes out and away ( about 3-4
ft. ) in line with one of the rows of poles and stake it
down. Adjust the slider to maintain tension. Pull the
second guy rope out in line with the other row of poles
and again stake down and adjust. Continue until all
remaining guy ropes are attached and staked down
YOUR SHELTER IS READY!
Take Down: Pull up the stakes and stow in the side pocket
of the small bag
Release the perimeter Velcro® tabs
Remove the poles from the frame and stow in the large bag.
Separate each pole into two sections. You do not need to
remove the baseplates.
Remove the canopy from the frame. You do not need to untie
the guy ropes. Fold and stow in the small bag
Remove all the rafters. Dismantle and stow Blue in the large
bag and Red & Green in the medium bag
Stow the crown and corners in the small bag
WARNING:
KEEP ALL FLAME AND HEAT SOURCES AWAY FROM THIS SHELTER FABRIC.
This shelter meets the flammability requirements of CPAI-84 and
NFPA701. The fabric may burn if left in continuous contact with
any flame source. The application of any foreign substance to the
fabric may render the flame-resistant properties ineffective.
Ultraviolet Light Damage: While our fabrics are UV
resistant, any synthetic fabric is susceptible to UV
degradation. UV damage will cause nylon and polyester to
become brittle and tear easily. This can be minimized by
erecting shelters on sites with low exposure to direct
sunlight
Cleaning: Clean the shelter by washing it down with a mild
liquid hand soap and warm water solution. Rinse
thoroughly. Never use detergent, washing machines or
dryers because they can damage the tent’s protective
coating and seams. After cleaning, be sure the shelter is
completely dry, especially the heavier, double-stitched
areas such as seams, before storing or mold and mildew
will grow. Clean the poles with a cloth and lubricate them
with silicone spray. This is especially necessary after ocean
side trips to remove salt spray so the poles don’t corrode
Alterations Or Modifications: DO NOT misuse, modify or
alter this product in any way from its condition at the time
of sale. Alteration, modification or any use of this product
contrary to the accompanying written instructions shall
void the warranty. Moreover, any misuse, alteration or
modification of the product shall absolve Johnson
Outdoors Inc. of any liability for property damages or
injuries sustained as a result of such misuse, modification
or alteration.
CAUTION:
Good judgment and common sense must be used for
each set-up and take down. Since weather is
unpredictable, it is the responsibility of the person
erecting the shelter to determine the proper time and
method to secure and/or dismantle the shelter.
Eureka! shelters are manufactured for use as temporary
protection from sun and light rain. Evacuate the
shelter during threatening or severe weather.
