Top Panel Tensioning
Once all legs have been anchored properly, it is time to tension the top using the
ratchet straps. Begin the tensioning process on the eave line (where the end section
and the mid section meet) on one side of the tent. Using ratchet, tighten tops until the
Keder is just beginning to show outside of the Keder rafter. Both Keders should be
fairly even. If not, it will be necessary to loosen and retighten the buckle bands
accordingly to straighten out the top panel. Repeat this procedure on the opposite
side, then at each mid section until the top is tensioned. Next, move to the end leg
(middle leg) and tighten top until it is snug. The final step will be the corners. Use
caution at this location as the tightening process is just enough to allow the curtain
rope to be pulled down over the corner. Fold all straps into ratchet cover and Velcro
over to give a finished look.
Installed Tent Inspection
1.
Staking - Check all stakes for signs of movement.
2.
Tensioning - Check all ropes for proper tension and make sure that the tent top is set for proper drainage.
3.
Poles - Check that all poles are properly aligned, securely tied and structurally sound.
4.
Sidewalls - Check that they are properly secured as needed.
5.
Special Considerations - Make sure that the installation is in compliance with all local building, fire and public safety
codes.
During inclement weather, particularly when the tent is in use, experienced
tent personnel should be present to ensure the security of the equipment and
those using it. All parties must be aware of the limitations for safe occupancy
of the tent. The tent renter must retain the right to declare the tent for unsafe
occupancy. Always follow manufacturer's instructions and warnings as they
take precedence over any conflicting information contained in this manual.
