IN WINDY CONDITONS, ADDITIONAL GUY LINES (SOLD SEPERATELY) SHOULD BE USED TO
SECURE THE TENT.
IN SEVERE CONDITIONS, THE TENT SHOULD BE TAKEN DOWN.
Gusseted Back Windows
The Grand Cabin tent is equipped with gusseted windows in the back. You can stake these out with the
small stakes and guy-ropes provided. The purpose is to provide airflow and circulation when it is raining,
or for added privacy. Gusseted windows can be staked out or zipped closed.
Disassembly
Requires at least two Adults
1. Sweep clean.
2. Empty all storage pockets.
3. Allow tent to dry completely! Zip down windows and allow tent to air out, and dry, inside and out.
4. Collapse the awning by removing the poles. One person should support the awning in place while the
other removes the poles. Use special caution to not allow the awning ridge poles (6) to fall to the ground
until the tips are removed from the upright poles (1 and 2)
5. Unzip doors and windows and collapse the tent, removing and disassembling the poles.
Place the poles in the pole carry bag and tie shut.
6. Remove tent stakes.
DO NOT REMOVE TENT STAKES FROM THE GROUND BY PULLING ON
TENT LOOPS!
This may cause damage to the tent and is not covered by warranty. Pull the tent stakes,
not the loops.
7. Spread the tent out flat with all loose canvas folded within the edges of the tent base. Try to flatten the
tent as much as possible.
8. Fold the tent in thirds lengthwise. Be sure to wipe and dry any mud or moisture from the bottom of the
floor.
9. Roll tent tightly and place in bag.
Tip
: Rather than lifting the rolled tent into the storage bag, place the storage bag over the rolled tent and
then half roll, and zip.
Care
●
Your tent must be completely dry, inside and out, before storage! STORING A WET OR DAMP TENT,
EVEN FOR A SHORT TIME, CAN CAUSE MOLD AND RUIN IT AND VOID THE WARRANTY.
●
To clean tent, hose down with water and wipe with a cloth. Do not use soaps and detergents as they
can damage the water-repellant treatment of the canvas.
CAUTION
VERY IMPORTANT
—Your tent must be completely dry, inside and out, before
storage! Your tent may be damp from condensation even if there has been no
rain. Storing a wet or damp tent, even for a short time, can ruin it and void the
warranty. This causes mold that will cause a bad odor, stain and deteriorate
the canvas and its water repellency.
If you must take the tent down while still wet or damp, loosely roll it for
transport. After transport, immediately unroll and set up or hang out to dry
thoroughly before long-term storage.
