You are  a good man! I have had one with the instructions for almost a year and it still is not on. Every time I go to put it on it pours..[]

The velcro for the front portion of ours was on the aluminum piece underneath the piece of scalloped fabric.  I hope that made sense.  Basically, check out the aluminum piece that the poles fold into and you may find velcro on a part of it.  My screeen room came with out instructions as well.

I have a Coleman AAR, but I would guess the directions are about the same.  Try setting up as much of the screen room as you can, so you will see where stuff needs to go.
 
 There are 2 pieces that have a half of a zipper on each side and about an inch of velcro in between.  They zip into the tenting of the PU between the bunkend and main body tenting.
 
 Velcro goes on the metal rail of the awning (the piece that the awning legs fold up into).  On the AAR there are snaps that get screwed into the metal rail too.  The screen room may be light enough that you don t need the screw(s).  
 
 The velcro that goes around the door goes on the black frame of the PU.  On the frame it (according to the directions) goes on the bottom of the box.  I put it there the first time and didn t like it.  I replaced the velcro and put it on the bottom of the black frame.  It works much better there.  There is also velstick, a plastic piece of velcro that gets screwed into the edge of the wheel well.
 
 There are 4 plastic hooks.  2 go on each side of the PU (you have to drill holes in the metal edge on top of the box and the wood at the bottom of the box).   If you have the screen room hanging by the awning poles you will see where the bungi cord is that attaches to the hooks.  It will give you an idea of where the hooks go.
 
 I hope this helps.

Thanks for the responses, Whitestar I ve e-mailed you my office fax #. Tracy your instructions sound perfect but I had no idea about this part.

I love Sandy Hook and Long Branch, caught quite a few striped bass off the jettys at the Hook but never had much luck at Long Branch Pier. I kept my boat at Atlantic Highlands Marina. I m sure things have changed since I ve been back, have lived in Miami for 17 years.

The Long Branch Pier, a favorite place for my wife (then fiance) and me when courting, burned down about 18 years ago.  The arcades and such struggled for a while but most eventually closed.  There is now a resort hotel and fancy beach club in that area and all of the businesses and old homes have been torn down for condos.  Hundreds of condos with in a football field of the Atlantic Ocean.  One good N orEaster and boy, are they in for it.  (Rant mode off).
 
 The Hook is still nice.  More like a park now than an Army base.  I don t go to the beach much here, I prefer going when we camp on Cape Cod.  No planes and traffic.  Just us and the Ocean.
