Flex 10m x 10m
Hi,
Flex Tents can be set up in many ways. There are only
3 main factors that need to be addressed with the
needed care. Make sure you and your set up team
keep these in mind:
Stakes
A.
Driven all the way into solid ground at a 45° angle
pointing away from the tent.
B.
Side stakes should be set at a distance equal to
75% of the height of the pole used.
B.
Corner stakes should be set at a distance equal to
the height of the pole. Corners require 2 guy lines –
stake them out in line with each the edge of the tent
– so they form a 90° angle.
Tension
Even and tight throughout all surfaces and guy lines.
Clamps
A. Orientation:
Always attached so the flat side is to
-
ward the sky; the Pole fitting and bolts point toward
the ground.
B. Attachment:
Fix the clamps securely around the
elastic rope embedded in the edge of the tent. Feel
for stiff reinforced rectangles along the edges – Attach
clamps ONLY to reinforced areas. You can’t miss them
if you’re aware you need to look for them.
C. Placement:
The MAXIMUM distance between
clamps is 3 meters or 10 feet. Adding more clamps
at shorter intervals is encouraged and adds stability.
Clamps should be symmetrical. Every clamp should
have a corresponding clamp on the opposite side of
the tent.
D.
Double check each clamp to ensure they are well
fastened and secure.

Storm Lines (optional) – Good strong rope to
throw over the Flex Tent once it’s pitched and sta-
ked to the ground for additional wind resistance.
Set Up Instructions:
1. Clean your set up area and clear it of sharp ob-
jects.
2.
Spread out the tent flat on the ground. Make sure
the pole insert on the pre-attached corner clamps
are facing down toward the ground. The flat side
of the corner clamp should face up towards the
sky.
3. Attach the side clamps – review the rules above!
4. Assemble the poles to your desired height and
lay them out at each clamp position along the
perimeter of the tent.
5. Attach one guy line to each side clamp, and two
guy ropes to each corner clamp. Guy lines (or
tensioning straps) should be least 1,5 meters (5
feet) longer than the pole that will be used at that
position.
