Troubleshooting

Tent is unstable in windy conditions

Ensure all sandbags are filled adequately and placed at the corners. Use all provided pegs to secure the tent firmly to the ground. Position the tent to minimize wind exposure if possible.

Water seeping through the fabric

Check the PU coating for any damage or wear. Ensure seams are intact. For minor leaks, seam sealant may be applied. Always ensure the tent is pitched correctly to allow water runoff.

Mesh sidewalls are damaged

Carefully inspect the mesh for tears or holes. Small tears can often be repaired with fabric repair tape or patching kits designed for outdoor gear.

Fibreglass poles are difficult to insert or remove

Ensure the poles are aligned correctly with the connecting ferrules. Avoid forcing the poles; if resistance is met, check for obstructions or misalignment. Keep poles clean and free from dirt.

Tent fabric has a musty smell

This usually indicates the tent was stored while damp. Air the tent out completely in sunlight until the smell dissipates. Ensure it is thoroughly dry before next use or storage.
