Locating Tent on your Vehicle
- Peel the PVC cover back at each end of theawning to expose the backing plate tracks. Insert the bolts heads into the backing plate tracks,thenreattach the PVC end covers.
- Position and attach the brackets in the required positionusing the provided nuts and washers,then tighten.
- Mount to the vehide using the provided U-bolts, nuts and washers.
Assembly
- Unzip the PVC cover and fold it back from the awning fabric
- Undo the three supporting straps and release the awning fabric.
- Take note of how the fabric is layered and packed to assist you with repacking the awning
- Swing the arms away from the awning until the fabric is fullyextended towards the front and rear of the vehicle. Use the tensioning strap to secure the awning in position at the front and rear of the vehicle.
- If being used in adverse weather conditions or if additionalstability is required, release the support poles attached to the swinging arms and adjust the pole height to the ground,then attach the provided guy lines and stakes for maximum support.
- Should it rain while your 270° awning is deployed,it is recommended that the support poles height is adjusted to allow a slight slope of the fabric,along with adjustment of the provided guy lines,allowing a "valley"to be formed between each swinging support arm. This will channel the water away from your vehicle and prevent excess weight sitting on the awning fabric overhead.
NOTE
lt is recommended that the awning is assembled and installed by two (2) people. We further recommend having theawning installed by experienced 4x4 accessory installer.The awning brackets supplied have been designed to fit the most common configurations of roof racks and railsystems.
However, due to the ever-increasing variations being offered by vehicle and accessory manufacturers, wecannot guarantee that these will fit all available options.
It is recommended that you speak to your roof rackspecialist for further advise or recommendations on thebest system for your requirements.
Ensure that the minimum spacing between themounting brackets is to be 47” (1200mm) to allow theawning to be supported correctly and the weight isdistributed evenly.

WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY
We haven't camped yet but we setup on our Forester Wilderness and tested out. Really nice, can't wait for our trip to Yellowstone!
I was hesitant to buy Benehike's soft rooftop tent at first, but after doing some research and reading reviews, I decided to take the plunge. I'm so glad I did!
Sitting in camp, having a drink while watching the sunset. It's been a while, but we're back in our own.
I'm impressed with this affordable awning, despite my initial skepticism. The tarp is of high quality and has withstood wind and rain without any problems. It was also easy to install and attach to my cargo basket.
