ANCHORING WITH TUBE BALLASTS
(WATER OR SAND)
Each Tube Ballast Set includes four ballasts. The bal-
lasts can be filled with water or sand/gravel and then
connected to the inside or the outside of the tent Tubes
by using the two clips on each ballast.
Filling with water
1 Open the velcro on the ballast cover and pull out the
inner water bladder until the fill valve is visible (a).
2 Included in the Tube Ballast Set are a hose and va-
rious faucet adapters. Attach the hose to the faucet
using the correct adapter (b).
3 Open the fill valve, insert the other end of the hose
and fill with water (c).
4 Once full, remove the hose from the water bladder and
close the fill valve and the velcro on the ballast cover.
5 Connect the Tube Ballasts to the clips on the Tube
ends (d). When doing so, be sure that the rub-
ber-coated side of each ballast is facing down.
6 Tighten the straps on the clips so that the ballasts
prevent the tent from rising—this provides the best
stability.
Filling with sand/gravel
PLEASE NOTE:
Inside of each ballast is a wa-
ter bladder (a) for use when filling the ballasts with
water. If you choose to fill the ballasts with sand or
gravel, you must first remove the water bladder so
it does not become damaged.
Connecting multiple Tube Ballasts
To secure your Event Tent in stronger wind conditions,
multiple ballasts can be attached to each Tube. Posi-
tion the ballasts side-by-side and connect them to
each other using the toggles (e). Then connect one clip
from each ballast to a clip on the Tube end (f). The
Tube Ballasts may alternatively be stacked on top of
one another.
