Springbar set-up guides
Below are several Adobe Acrobat (PDF) files of the original setup instruction sheets that come packed with the tents from our factory. Be aware that some of these sheets have not been updated in a while and may contain references to our previous 10-year warranty policy (now upgraded to a limited lifetime warranty). Some sheets may also reference older Springbar models that are no longer in production. However, the basic setup of Springbar tents has changed little in 30 years, so these guides are useful in visualizing the very simple process of erecting a modern Springbar tent.
