ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS:
Prepare your tent site by removing all sharp
stones, twigs, etc. The site should be flat and
have no depressions that could collect rain
water. We recommend setting your tent on top
of a polyethylene ground cloth. A Texsport P.E. Tarp works very well for a ground cloth.

CONDENSATION:
The human body gives off a considerable amount of moisture during the night. If this moisture cannot escape from the tent, it will
condense on the inner surface, especially during cold weather.
a. Coated Nylon Tents: Condensation may build up on the inner surface and make it wet. This does not mean the tent leaks.
Rain droplets may knock much condensation loose, which may feel like leakage or misting. If
windows are left open, this condition will be reduced.
b. Breathable Tents: A breathable roof with a top fly will greatly reduce condensation.
ZIPPERS:
If zippers stick, lubricate with silicone. Never force a zipper which has material caught in it, as this will bend the slider and prevent
the zipper from closing. Continual use in a sandy environment can cause the slider to erode and fail to close the zipper.
STORAGE:
Tents should be stored dry and loosely folded, away from heat. Keep out of reach of mice as they like to nest in tents. Never store
directly on concrete, as moisture and chemicals in concrete may damage the nylon.
WASHING:
Hand wash with a sponge, using soap such as Ivory Flakes. Never use detergent or washing machines as they may damage the
coating or seams.
HOW LONG WILL A NYLON TENT LAST?
Various conditions will affect the length of service which you receive:
a. A nylon tent which is left erected all summer may last only one or two seasons, as the sun’s ultra-violet rays damage nylon
continual exposure.
b. Never store a tent wet or damp, as mildew may develop. It will not harm nylon, however, mildew is unsightly and may
damage other parts of the tent (i.e. zipper tapes).
c. Avoid spraying insect repellent or hair sprays, etc. on tent fabric as they may be harmful.
REPAIR:
Adhesive-backed rip-stop tape is recommended for repairing tears.
