ESCAPE 3 PLUS
TENT INSTRUCTIONS
-
Select a dry level area and clear the ground of any sharp or dangerous objects.
-
Spread out the floor of the inner tent. The corners that have 2 pins are the front of the tent. Peg out the four corners ensuring that the tent is pulled
out firm and square
(be careful not to make it too taut)
. Peg out the remaining pegging points.
-
Assemble all the fibreglass poles, making sure that the poles are pushed fully into the ferrules.
-
Slide the longer fibreglass poles through the loop at the top of the inner tent. Adjust the poles so that they lie evenly over each corner of the tent.
-
Insert the pin (on the tent corner) into the end of one pole, bend pole over and insert the pin in the other pole end. Repeat for the second long pole
(this is easiest done by one person lifting the poles and the middle of the tent while another places the pole ends over the pins). Take care not to
bend the poles beyond their normal arc.
-
Attach the clips on the inner tent to the fibreglass poles.
-
Slide the shorter fibreglass vestibule pole through the pole sleeves and web loops that are located in the front of the inner tent, insert the pins into
the ends of the fibreglass pole
-
Position the fly over the tent and align it. Before pegging down, attach Velcro tabs on the inside of tent fly to poles. (Don’t forget the tabs that attach
to the vestibule pole at the bent ferules.)
-
With the doors closed peg out the fly ensuring that there is an adequate gap left between the tent and the fly. It easiest to peg the 4 corners then the
vestibule and then the rest of the pegs. (Take care not to peg the fly too far out from the base as you may distort the shape of the tent)
-
Peg out the guy ropes.

PACKING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Make sure the inner tent and fly are COMPLETELY DRY and CLEAN before packing away. (A damp tent can develop mildew very quickly.)
2. Pack the poles and pegs into their separate bags.
3. Fold the fly in half lengthwise and fold the ends in to form a rectangle. Then fold each end into the middle and continue folding until you have a long
rectangle approx 60-70cm wide and 250cm long. The bottom of the fly should be at one end when folded.
4. Fold the inner tent into quarters lengthwise by folding both sides into the centre, then one half over the other.
5. Lay the fly and poles on top of the inner and tightly roll up the tent over the poles (rolling towards the bottom edge of the fly which helps to push the
air out).
6. Secure the rolled up tent with the supplied ties.
7. Place in carry bag.
