1. Lay out the ground sheet on the floor where you wish to erect your M3 Compact. The two
hooks attached to the ground sheet must face downwards. A small Aqua label indicates the
doorway and as such is best positioned with the wind coming from behind as this greatly
increases stability in very high winds.
2. Place the M3 Compact in the centre of the ground sheet. Kneel down and open out the poles
of the M3 compact, plugging together the frame sections as you go, taking care not to force the
joints and damaging the spigots. Ensure the spigots are fully inserted and that the poles form
a natural curve.
3. The porch pole must be attached last. Simply plug the porch frame together and slot each
side on to the two aluminium lugs. Do not attempt to assemble the M3 Compact while you are
standing.
4. The assembled frame will be wider than the groundsheet. Attach the two rings on the inside
edges of the frame base plates to the hooks on the groundsheet. This tensions the frame and
takes up any play in the frame.
5. If you do not wish to use the ground sheet, a tension strap can be used. It is essential that
you do not over tension your M3 Compact as this can cause lasting damage and invalidates
your warranty.
6. Peg out the bivvy starting with the aluminium rings either side of the centre seam at the rear
of the M3 Compact using the groundsheet as a guide.
It is advisable that the first time you use the bivvy it is pitched at home in
your garden to familiarise yourself with your new purchase.
Take care to find a suitable location in which to pitch your bivvy and take
note of the direction of any strong winds. You should take into consideration
factors such as the contours of the ground and that the ground is suitable
to peg down securely.
