GRAPHICS/DESIGN
• A transparent effect can occur (especially with background
light) with different tent color combinations (e.g. light Roof
color and dark Tubes). This should be taken into consideration
by customers when designing the X-Gloo. If in doubt, please
consult your X-GLOO professional.
• With sewn application on different cloths, there is an area of
overlap of ca. 5-10 mm where the cloth is sewn together. This
results in a color change in the area of the overlap.
SET-UP
• Do not exceed the specified maximum air pressure.
• The X-Gloo is not intended for long-term outdoor use and should
be inspected for wear or damage after every event.
• If small folds form inside the Tubes when inflating, it is helpful
with the larger tents to gently shake the Tube during the
inflation process. This will help keep the inner Bladder in the
correct position assuring proper inflation.
• The X-Gloo should be deflated in winds exceeding 60 km/h (The
first sign of overload is when the Roof begins to compress).
When high wind force is expected (gusts of more than 50-60
km/h for the 4x4, 5x5, or 6x6; and more than 40 km/h for the
8x8) the tent must be secured and anchored.
PLEASE NOTE:
If Side Walls are completely zipped in to a 6x6
tent, a force of almost 500 kg is the result. For this reason,
please pay special attention to the following points:
- According to the ground surface, you may require longer or
additional stabilisation materials.
- Additionally, you must attach Anchoring Lines to all Shoulder
Loops (found on the outside of each Tube)!
- Our smaller Water Ballasts (ideal for use on hard ground
surfaces) may not be sufficient for securing your tent against
strong wind gusts. Refer to our Wind Resistance Certificate to
determine whether Water Ballast Barrels are required.
- Winds stronger than 60 km/h can lead to structural damage of
the tent and this damage is no longer covered by the warranty.
- If weather conditions deteriorate dramatically, all Overpressure
Valves should be opened immediately and the tent deflated.
Additionally, the deflated tent should be weighted down.
- In general, the Protective Strips on the bottom of the Tubes
are exposed to more wear and tear on rough surfaces due to
the movement of the tent from wind.
OPERATION
Keep open fires and heat sources away from the X-Gloo.
FIRE PROTECTION CLASSIFICATION:
•
Description of Norms:
- DIN 4102-B1 (Abb.: B1) Controls testing and requirements on
the reaction to fire of building materials. German norm, used
in most European countries.
- CPAI 84-95, Section 6 Specification of the American
Association of Sailcloth Materials for the assessment of flame-
retardant materials used in (event-) tents. Due to the fact
that the the X-Gloo is in use worldwide at tradeshows as an
innovative event tent, we reserve the right not to certify the
tent according to the national norms of each country. The
certification according to CPAI 84 fulfills the international
requirements for flame resistance in tent products and
includes similar test criteria like DIN 4102-B1 or NFP 92501-
7M2.
• When the tent is used in sandy terrain, avoid getting sand grains
in the Tubes or in the Pump
• Keep the Valves free of sand and dirt particles and clean them if
necessary, since this can cause faulty operation and pressure loss.
• The tent can be damaged by the penetration of sharp objects
(e.g. knives, tools) in the Tubes causing leakage and loss of
pressure. Handle the X-Gloo with appropriate care.
• Avoid extreme variations in temperature (day and night) or
long-term use. This can lead to loss of air pressure, requiring
reinflation of the tent.
