Eureka Chrysalis Assembly Instructions

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS for the CHRYSALIS TENT/HAMMOCK:
Component List:
1 Tent / Hammock Body w/ attached hanger assembly
2 Attached Tent Poles 1 Carry Bag
Assembly:
• Unroll and unfold the tent/hammock and lay it on the ground with
the Eureka! logo up.
• There is a hanger assembly that runs the
length of the Chrysalis [ web, buckles,
pins & carabiners ]. Make sure that the
webs, buckles and carabiners protrude
through the openings at each end and
that the pins are held by the end web
loops. See fig.2
• Locate the two push up vents near one
end of the roof. At this end, wrap the
web around a tree at approximately
head height and secure in place with
the carabiner. See fig.3
• At the opposite end, again wrap the
web around a tree and secure with the
carabiner. Adjust tension as necessary.
Note: If you prefer, as you lay, to have
your head above your feet, wrap this
web a bit lower than the first.

• Fold the roof fabric back from the door. Inside, there are two poles
that spread and hold the tent/hammock. Remove the protective
covers and fit the narrow end of each pole section into the sleeve on
its opposite half. See fig. 4 and 5.
• Adjust the webs to
provide sufficient tension
to hold you up off of the
ground. See fig. 6.
• Pull the roof fabric out
and over the pole ends
and secure to the
underside Velcro®.
See fig. 7.
Note: It is easiest to enter the Chrysalis as you
would most other hammocks. Lift the roof over
your head, back in and sit. Turn to bring in your
legs and lie down.
• Once inside the tent/
hammock, you can "shut"
the door by attaching the
bottom to the Velcro® on
the outside of the shell.
See fig. 8.

• You can hold the
door/mesh open by
attaching it to the ridge
with the Velcro® straps or
wrap the straps over the
top to hold the fly open.
See fig. 9.
• Or you can release the
toggle on the inner door
flap, fold the flap down
and tuck it under while
