TENT PITCHING INSTRUCTIONS – PALERMO (UK)
Flysheet First Pitching:
1. Open out flysheet and position in required direction
2. Peg out the four corners of the central dome then peg the front and bedroom pods.
3. Locate inflation points on each beam, inflate the dome structure first.
4. Remove the valve cap (figure 1)
5. Insert the correct pump adaptor, which will lock onto the valve (figure 2 & 3)
6. There is no need to turn the white valve button as the adaptor will move this to the correct position
7. Inflate all tubes to 7psi. The tubes MUST be guided into an arch as they are inflated.
8. Final tube pressure MUST NOT exceed 8psi
9. DO NOT OVER-INFLATE THE BEAMS
10. Guide the beams into an upright position while it is inflating
11. A small amount of air may leak from the valve when it is being inflated but this is normal
12. Remove the pump adaptor as soon as the beam is at the correct psi
13. Replace the valve cap to create an air tight seal (figure 5 & 6)
14. Ensure the pods are straight
15. The groundsheet should be flat and wrinkle free
16. Peg out the remaining beams and pegging points using pin pegs at the base of beams.
17. Peg out ALL guy lines using pin-pegs ensuring that guy line fabric attachment points are evenly tensioned.
18. Reposition and adjust tensioning where necessary
CORRECT PUMP SET-UP:
1. Pump Body > Pressure Valve > Pressure Gauge > Hose
2. (Ensure the valve/gauge/hose are connected to the inflation port of the pump)
Inner Attachment:
1. Open out inner tent inside flysheet and position doorways to correspond with the living area
2. Starting from the rear corners of the tent, attach the elasticated hooks on the groundsheet to corresponding rings on the flysheet
3. Suspend the inner by attaching toggles of inner tent through rings on inside of flysheet
4. Do the rear first and work forward
Tension Band System:
1. Remove Tension Band System from pockets and attach into the corresponding clips at the apex of the pole
2. Adjust the straps until they are taut
3. DO NOT OVERTENSION. Excess tension will alter the shape of the tent
TO DEFLATE AIRBEAM/ AIRAWAY/ AIRAWNING:
1. To deflate the AirBeam (remove the cap (figure 7)) press & turn (figure 8) the button from CLOSED to OPEN
In the unlikely event of a puncture:
1. Deflate the air beam. Unzip the internal flysheet sleeve which contains the affected beam.
2. Remove the tube and its protective outer.
3. The zips for the protective outer are cable tied together to prevent accidental access. Cut the cable tie and open the zip.
4. DO NOT open these zips when the tube inflated.
5. Remove the clear rubberised tube from the protective sleeve taking care when removing the valve from the sleeve.
6. Partially inflate the tube and pass through a bucket or basin of water, looking for air bubbles. This will indicate location of puncture
7. Use the repair patch provided and cover hole, using instructions on patch. Re-insert tube into protective outer, closing zip from both ends, so that zip pullers
are in the flysheet sleeve (this might be easier with the tube partially inflated)
