Troubleshooting

Tent leaks during rain.

Ensure all seams are properly sealed. Check the rainfly is correctly attached and covers the tent completely. Re-stake the tent and rainfly tautly. Consider applying a seam sealer for extended protection.

Difficulty setting up poles.

Ensure poles are fully assembled and aligned correctly with the tent's pole sleeves or connection points. Use the pin-and-ring system as intended. If poles are bent, carefully straighten them.

Tent smells musty.

The tent was likely stored while damp. Air the tent out completely in sunlight. If odor persists, use a mild fabric cleaner specifically designed for outdoor gear.

Zipper is stuck or difficult to use.

Gently pull the fabric away from the zipper teeth. Use a graphite pencil or wax to lubricate the zipper teeth. Avoid forcing the zipper.
