TENT PITCHING INSTRUCTIONS F10 XPD 3 –

• Open out inner and position in required direction. The inner is symetrical so porch can go at either end

• Assemble all poles: 4 x orange poles for dome, 1 x silver pole for the porch

• Insert 2 orange pole end tips into the eyelets on the corner of inner

• Push the other ends of these poles up into an arch, and insert their tips into the corresponding eyelets on the corners of the inner forming the main dome of the

pole structure.

• Insert 2nd 2 orange pole end tips into the corresponding eyelets on the sides of the inner tent

• Push the other ends of these poles up into an arch, and insert their tips into corresponding eyelets of inner.

• Suspend the inner tent from the pole structure using the clips. Start with the gated clips at the pole cross overs

• Open out flysheet and position over the pole structure. The grey vent indicates the rear of the flysheet.

• Attach the flysheet to the pole structure using velcro tabs on the inside of the flysheet. The silver porch goes through the pole sleeve on the inside of the flysheet.

• Insert the porch pole end tip into the colour coded webbing with eyelet on the inner tent and push into an arch, inserting the other ends tip of the pole into it's

colour coded webbing with eyelet

• Secure the flysheet by positioning the eyelets on the tension webbing, over the end of all pole tips, and tension equally.

• Place your tent in it's final position and peg out all pegging points

• Tension the flysheet once pegged out. Finish by pegging out the porch(s)

• Peg out ALL guy lines using pin-pegs ensuring that guy line fabric attachment points are evenly tensioned.

FIRE AND VENTILATION PRECAUTIONS

• If using gas or other combustion appliances additional ventilation is required

• Do not place hot appliances near the walls, roof or curtains keep all flame and heat resources away from tent fabric ,

• The fabric may burn if left in continuous contact with any flame source

• Always observe the safety instructions for these appliances

• Keep exits clear

• Make sure ventilation openings are open all the time to avoid suffocation

• The application of any foreign substance to the tent fabric may render flame-retardant properties ineffective.

BEFORE YOU PITCH YOUR TENT

• Check that all the components are correct and undamaged.

• Pitch your tent at home. This will help you become familiar with the components and pitching procedures, making it easier to pitch next time, particularly if you

have to pitch your tent in the dark or in bad weather.

• When inserting poles into sleeves, take care not to force poles through. Avoid pushing long poles through sleeves. Instead, feed material onto poles, gathering

short lengths and pulling material on to poles gradually.

• When pitching, push poles into shape with all tension bands and flysheet adjuster straps loosened.

• Never over tighten tension bands, guylines or tent material. This causes strain and damage to seams, doorways, pegging points and zips. Material could also

tear in strong winds.

• Nylon tent material will slacken when wet. Resist the temptation to re-tighten if there is a possibility of material drying out soon afterwards i.e. in showers / hot

weather etc. as material will re-tighten naturally when drying out.

• Always peg at an angle (ideally 45º) to the ground to obtain maximum grip in the ground. Peg in line with tent seams. Do not over tension pegging points on

flysheet material.

LOOKING AFTER YOUR TENT

• Select a suitable area with good drainage and remove objects likely to puncture the groundsheet. Avoid areas which could flood. Face doorways away from

wind. Avoid trees which continue to drip long after rain and also drop broken branches in the wind.

• Prolonged exposure to strong sunlight weakens the material which fades and becomes brittle. With careful use, tent material should last for many years. Avoid

long term pitching in strong sunlight.

• Never force zips. Always pitch your tent with the zips closed.

• Tent material and fire don’t mix. Keep naked flames away from tent material. Never light pressure stoves inside the tent.

• All tents are prone to condensation when air on the inside is warmer than outside. Increase ventilation by leaving doors partially open and opening vents on

flysheet. This reduces the level of condensation inside the tent.

• Before taking your tent down release all adjustment straps on poles and pegging points. This makes it easier to pitch and tension next time.

• Subject to wind conditions, un-peg and tie up all guylines.

• Carefully remove poles from sleeves. Avoid pulling poles out of sleeves; otherwise shock corded poles will separate inside sleeves. Gradually push the poles

through the sleeves, while pulling material off the poles in short lengths.

• Lay out flysheet and inner then fold to the width of the tent bag. Roll up, with poles and pegs inside, releasing trapped air by unzipping doorways first and

folding towards doorways.

• Whenever possible pack tent when dry. If the tent is packed wet, dry thoroughly at first opportunity before storing.

• Pack inner and outer separately if outer has become wet, particularly from condensation on the inside of the flysheet.
