Double-layer tent - tunnel
Thank you for purchasing a LOAP tent. We believe that it will be a reliable and faithful companion during your stay the in nature. We have
some advice and tips for you to make your stay in the tent as pleasant as possible and to make your LOAP tent serve you well for many
years. After all, it is your second home in the nature.
Before the first trip, set up the tent and check:
• We recommend trying to set up the tent before your first stay in the nature.
• Check that no part is missing from the tent and that no part is damaged.
Carefully select the location of the tent:
• Choose a place without surface irregularities: stones, twigs, hard or sharp objects. Do not set up the tent in places where there is a risk of
landslides or flooding.
• If possible, set up the tent in the lee and face the door down the wind.
• Do not set up the tent under trees. Sap drops from some trees, which can impair the durability of the tent material against water
penetration.
• The tent should not be set up under lonely or tall trees for lightning safety.
• We recommend keeping a distance of at least 6 metres from the surrounding tents.
Setting up the tent:
• Spread the outer tent on a flat surface.
• Assemble the two long durawrap poles. Pass the longer pole through the pass at the door and the shorter pole through the pass at the
back of the tent. Slide the pole ends on the metal pins at the bottom of the tent and stretch out the outer tent. Peg the tent.
• Stretch out the tent with pegs and cords as required.
• Attach the inner tent to the outer tent using hooks and tie backs.
• Stick the pegs into the ground at an angle.
• Place the PE groundsheet in front of the inner tent and peg it.
• Leave the tent zips closed when setting up the tent.
• Keep the zips clean, do not step on them.
• Make sure the outer tent is attached at all points.
• Make sure that the fabric of the tent is only slightly stretch out at the individual points after attachment, so that it is possible to level any
subsequent load (e.g., snow, it should be removed as soon as possible).
