Troubleshooting

Tent is difficult to pitch

Ensure poles are correctly inserted into sleeves/clips and that the tent fabric is not twisted. Check that pegs are firmly in the ground.

Water ingress during rain

Verify all seams are properly sealed and that the fabric is taut. Ensure the ground is not pooling water around the tent base. Check for any tears or damage to the fabric.

Interior feels too warm

Open all available vents to maximize airflow. Consider pitching in a shaded area if possible.

Poles appear bent or damaged

Handle poles with care during setup and takedown. If a pole is significantly bent, it may need replacement to ensure structural integrity.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Unpack the tent and identify the poles and fabric. Insert the flex-alloy poles into their respective sleeves or clips on the tent fabric. Secure the tent pegs into the ground around the base. Ensure all vents are open for maximum airflow during setup. The system is designed for a pitch time of under 5 minutes.

Compatibility: This tent is primarily designed for solo use, especially by motorcycle riders. It is compatible with standard camping grounds and rough terrain due to its durable construction.

Care: To maintain its waterproof qualities, clean the tent periodically with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals. Ensure the tent is completely dry before storing to prevent mold and mildew. Store in its original packed bag in a cool, dry place. Periodically check the flex-alloy poles for any signs of wear or damage.
