Had first trip with montana 6 this weekend and it was great.
I wanted to put the porch door up as an awning to cook under, and two additonal poles are provided for this.
I can see the points on the poles go into the holes at he bottom of the door, then you can lift it up, but how do you get the whole thing to stay up?
I couldn't work it out......

Any ideas..?

That looks the job. Presumably you have to attach a couple of extra ropes youself - think i've been spolit by all the integral ones...

So now you know how to do it

-------------
Experience enables you to recognize a mistake when you make it again.
Everything has been said before, but since nobody ever listens we have to keep going back and saying it all over again and again and again
