Markise

Lift the tent onto your crossbars (you will need a friend or two) with the Galaxy 1.0 handle facing towards the rear of your vehicle, and the hinges at the front of your vehicle.

Make sure the tent is positioned approximately where you want it. Typically, if it looks right-it is ! For SUVS and hatchbacks, open your truck and push the tent back until it just misses touching the open trunk. This allows you to be sure the tent won’t interfere with your trunk’s operation.

Prepare your mounting sets.

• Insert an M8 bolt into a mounting plate (tracks facing up) and then attach a mounting U bracket (concave pointing up). Then attach a hex head bolt a little less than half way. Repeat three more times.
• Prepare four M8 bolt and plate sets by connecting an M8 bolt to amounting plate. Repeat three more times.

With your 4 original mounting sets with the U bracket, slide each into the mounting track (make sure one on the right side of roof rack on the car, the other one is on the left side), followed by your M8 bolt and plate set. Repeat for each corner of the tent.

Start at the front or back with a partner and lift the front or back up to slide the mounting set to the inside of your crossbar as shown in video. Repeat for each corner.

Connect the mounting sets together by inserting the dangling M8 bolt through the mounting U bracket and finger-tighten a nut onto the M8 bolt. Repeat for all four corners.

Tighten the nuts evenly and snugly making sure that before you do a final tightening of the nuts that you have your tents lined up on your vehicle’s roof exactly where you want it.
