Roof Cap Installation
NOTE
Do not raise the legs until the roof cap fabric is installed.
1. Locate the folded up roof cap (Figure 8, Item 1) and unfold it so that the crease between the folds is
up and flat side is down. Do not unroll it at this time.
2. Position the rolled up roof cap (Figure 8, Item 1) exactly over the center wall frame rafter assemblies
3. Unroll one half of the roof cap (Figure 8, Item 1).
NOTE
If the MCPS is to be heated with a space heater, locate the stove pipe opening towards
the plain wall end of the tent, and ensure that the chimney flap on both the roof cap liner
and the roof cap have been opened.
4. Stretch the corners of the roof cap (Figure 8, Item 1) over the corners of an end wall frame assembly
(Figure 8, Item 3).
Repeat steps 3
and 4
with the other half of
