:
1)
Unpack your tent and make sure you have all the necessary parts to assemble
your tent.
2)
Unroll the groundsheet on a flat, pebble-free underground (fig. 1) and fix the
bottom of the tent to the ground using the smallest pegs you can find in the
canvas bag.
3)
If this is the first time you pitch the tent, you may still have to attach the guy
ropes. There is a black adjuster at one end of the guy ropes. Connect the end of
the guy ropes without adjuster to one of the canvas loops at the bottom of the
roof. Now push the heavy pegs into the ground and attach the other end of the
guy ropes to their corresponding peg. Make sure the adjuster is located at about
50 cm (19.7 in) from the canvas, so that you will still be able to adjust the ropes.
4)
Connect the central poles to the sleeper and attach them to the tent ridge. (fig. 2,
3 en 4).
5)
Call in the help of a second person to peg down the tent. Unzip the door, enter
the tent and hold the tent in place while someone else pegs down the four corners
as well as the front and the back of the tent (fig. 5).
6)
Zip up the tent doors and attach the remaining guy ropes to the ground. Make
sure the tension is equally divided between the guy ropes. Avoid putting any
tension on the zippers.
