Can anyone help me identify the make and model of this tent. I need the instruct

I'm sure Stockman is part of the Jackerroo brand and usually sold though KMart , your best bet would be to look in one of their stores for a similar tent.

Hi Stevie,
I'm unable to confirm the brand (pretty sure it was jackaroo) or instructions but I have one exactly the same (colour and all). We bought it from Kmart in 2002. It is a bit of bugger to put up and definitely a two person job + patience + lotsa practise in back yard. It's easy to put a warp in the top and long side poles but if you can maybe get a third person to steady the side poles as you lift it's easier until you get the hang of it. (Take your time and swear frequently and it will all make sense eventually)


Cheers

Hi Stevie
Where do you live? you can borrow my yard to set up if your close.
Once you have worked it out might be an idea to spray paint the poles and fittings at the ends different colours or label them eg Left Middle Right
I purchased a second hand tent years ago when we first started (family)camping what made it worse was some missing poles :-(
At the time I thought I was buying a bucket of guy ropes and pegs at a garage for sale for $20.00 until he asked where my car was and he would help load the rest of the tent for me :-)

Cheers Michael

G,day Stevie J, I have the same tent and mine is a "Stockman Wimmera" bought from K-mart yearssssss ago.

It takes two people to set up approx. 20 - 30 minutes tops. a couple of extra hands is a bonus.

I can't find the instruction, but;
Sort out your poles;
Roof poles x 3, corner & end poles x 6 & 6 bends, all the thicker ones.

Internal poles are thinner ones, they are the only tricky bit. They clip together with hooks & holes and are adjustable, they have a plastic clip that clips onto the roof poles though a small opening.

Veranda poles have a spike on them. 3 sets.

First thing is to lay your tent out & peg it down in the corners only.
Slide the three roof poles through the sleeves. Put on the 6 corner bends, tie them on loosely, connect the 4 corner & 2 centre up rights and start standing it up with your helper. The corners are on an angle with the bottom towards the centre... It will look untidy at first but don't worry about that.

Go inside and assemble the internal frame. It has hooks, holes and plastic clips that hold it all together, a bit of a jigsaw but not rocket science. It sits on the floor and clips to the roof poles via small holes.

Go back out and straighten up all the supports, peg it down properly and adjust corners. Put up the veranda and give yourself a pat on the back...

Hope this assists. It will get easier, colour code or number the poles for next time.

Hi Stevie,

Yes I agree, I am pretty sure it is a K-Mart Jackeroo and I reckon I have the instruction sheet somewhere filed. I will have a look on the weekend and scan it as a PDF on Monday and then work out how to get it to you.

Cheers,
Merv

Hi Stevie

Kirk's here

I have a tent that looks exactly like your's and it is a Wood's brand made in Canada it is quite easily to erect but takes a fair bit of time to put up and take down must peg down the bottom first then away you go

Yes- this is a Stockman Wimmera tent. I purchased mine in 1998. I have the instructions which I can post to you. Just need your address. Regards G.T.

Hi Stevie,

Sorry about the delay but I have found the instructions so I can scan them and email them to you tomorrow.

Cheers,
Merv

Hi Stevie,

I emailed the instructions this afternoon. Hopefully you got it and it is OK!

If you need any other help or if you didn't get it let me know.

Cheers,
Merv
