Swing over the near side cabin roof frames. The canvas will
automatically follow.
Repeat for the offside and then swing the central roof sections
up to the apex and connect the two sections front and rear.
Extend the cabin poles to their maximum length using the
spring buttons and fold over the left and right hand beds in
that order. Adjust the legs to provide level beds.
The core of the unit is the quick erect pegless cabin. Pegless
means that it doesn’t require pegging to the ground, saving
time and allowing the cabin to be used on hard standing.
The shock cord attaches to the cleats on the side of trailer.
Adjust the length of the shock cord to fit accordingly.
Undo retaining straps that secure inner tent and mattress to
the bed board and clip inner tent onto the frame using plastic
clips. (All Holiday trailer tents are delivered without the inner
tents or mattress covers fitted. Once fitted however the inner
tents can remain in situ and need only be unclipped from the
frame for folding).
Pull down cabin canvas and adjust the frame downwards so
that the pegging points comfortably reach the ground.
1. Zip the awning canvas onto cabin using the two heavy duty
zips and ensuring the zip covers are in place.
Fold the
awning canvas over the top of the cabin to expose the
cabin’s front wall.
2. Study the frame diagram supplied with your trailer tent and
layout frame in situ. Starting with the three extension roof
poles that attach to the cabin frame (no. 7) build the
awning frame but do not attach the three short stub canopy
poles at the front.
3. Pull canvas back over the awning frame ensuring that the
front of the frame locates through the three cutaways in the
front of the awning canvas. Attach stub canopy poles to
the frame and pull canvas pockets over the poles.
4. Extend the three adjustable roof poles inside to bring the
canvas under tension, then lock in place by turning the lock
screw clockwise.
1. Peg the trailer tent in the following sequence:
a) Close all doors and other zips
b) First, peg one rear corner. Peg in line with the seam
inserting the peg at an angle of 45°.
c) Go to other rear corner and stretch the rear of the trailer
tent. The canvas will become taut without any creases.
Once again, peg in line with the seam as before.
d) Go to the front corners and repeat this procedure but
this time pulling the front leg forward and out with the
canvas, making sure that there are as few creases as
possible in front and side of the trailer tent canvas.
ANY DOORS OR EXTERIOR ZIPS MUST BE CLOSED TO THE
BOTTOM TO SUCCESSFULLY PEG YOUR TRAILER TENT.
e) Working from the rear centre pegging points, continue
to peg your trailer tent. The canvas should always be
taut with no creases and the pegs should all be in line
with each other. It is not necessary to pull the canvas
too far out - a straight line is preferable from corner to
corner. Cross peg all doorways to avoid excess tension
on zips and to prevent them from working their way
open.
f) When you are finished, the trailer tent canvas should be
taut on the frame with no “flapping canvas”. Each side
should be pegged neatly and in as straight a line as
possible. Where possible, pegs should be in line with
the seam.
