SETUP INSTRUCTIONS

Hello, and thanks for buying one of our Deluxe tents.

Here is the best way to put up your tent:

Our instructions are based on one person setting up the tent 

but the more people there are, the faster it goes up (with a lit-

tle practice it should not take more than 6 minutes).

A list of tips can be found at the end of this document to help 

you get years of use out of your tent, but the golden rule i

ENJOY!

Please don’t hesitate to contact us if you have any more ques-

tions, good ideas on better ways of doing something or just to 

send in pictures for the gallery on the site.

Be sure to check the tent before you leave on holiday. Do not 

leave without doing a test-installation at home. 

Putting up a Deluxe tent

p

1. Find a good spot for placing the tent: look for a flat piece 

of land without rocks or sharp objects. Try to avoid resinous 

trees  and flowering trees, as they can cause damage to the 

canvas. If you do put up your tent there, try to protect your 

tent with a tarpaulin.  

p

2. Unpack the tent and lay out the groundsheet. Find the 

door and rotate the groundsheet so it’s facing the desired di-

rection

p

3. Take the small pegs and, pulling the groundsheet tight,

peg it out. The straps on the bottom of the walls are only to be 

used when the tent is pitched without its groundsheet!

p

4. If this is the first time you put your tent, you will have to 

attach the guy ropes to the tent. You can do this the following 

way: 

ALWAYS, WITHOUT FAIL,

 STORE YOUR TENT BONE DRY 

OR YOU RUN THE RISK 

OF GETTING A MOULDY TENT!

TIP:

 

Even though the groundsheet and tent may 

come separately we recommend you keep them zipped 

together and only unzip when you need a breeze.  

The tent is much faster to put up and down that way. 

If the total weight is too much to carry across a festival 

consider separating the tent and groundsheet and  

doing two trips to the car.
