CANVAS CARE
CARING FOR YOUR TENT
How to Season Canvas
1. Use a hose to wet canvas thoroughly, ensuring all seams are wet
2. Allow the canvas to completely dry naturally, do not artificially dry
3. Repeat this process 3-4 times to ensure complete waterproofing
Why Should You Season Canvas?
Seasoning canvas is essential to main-
taining canvas quality and waterproof-
ness. You season canvas using natural
elements. As canvas is made from the
natural product of cotton, it reacts to
natural elements such as wet and dry
conditions. The aim of seasoning is to
swell the canvas to completely close
any small gaps that could let water in,
then drying it pulls all the canvas back
together and ensures it is completely
waterproof.
Heat – It will relax, expand, and go soft
Cold – It will stien, harden, and shrink
Wet – It will expand
Dry – It will pull tight
If the canvas becomes dirty, clean with
cold water and a brush – do not use
any soaps or detergent.
• Ensure the Awning is completely
dry before packing back into its bag
• Do not expose the awning to petrol,
oil, or solvents
• If well worn, restore the canvas with
DYNAPROOF

cured to prevent damage.
-Inspect the ladder after delivery and before each use to confirm the condition and operation of
all parts.
-Visually check that the ladder is not damaged and is safe to use at the start of each working
day when the ladder is to be used.
-Ensure the ladder is suitable for the task at hand.
-Do not ever use a damaged ladder.

Positioning and Erecting ladder
-Inclination angle should not exceed 75 degrees.
-Ladder should be on an even, level and unmovable base.
-The leaning ladder should be placed against a flat, non-fragile surface and should be secured
before use, e.g. tied down or with an assistant standing on the bottom rung to secure it.
-When positioning the ladder, take into account any risk of collision with the ladder from pedes-
trians, vehicles, doors or windows in the work area. Never set the ladder up in the vicinity of a
closed fire exit as it may be opened urgently.
-Identify any electrical risks in the work area, such as overhead lines or other exposed electrical
equipment.
-The ladder should never be positioned on a slippery surface (such as ice, polished surfaces
or significantly contaminated solid surfaces) unless additional eective measures are taken to
Use of the ladder
-Do not exceed the maximum total load of 150kg.
-Do not overreach. Users should keep the trunk of their body inside the stiles, with both feet on
the same step/rung throughout the task.
-Do not step o a leaning ladder at a higher level without additional security, such as tying o, or
the use of a suitable stability device.
-Do not use standing ladders to access another level.
-Do not stand on the top three steps/rungs of a leaning ladder.
-Ladders should only be used for light work of short durations.

-Do not use the ladder as a bridge.
-Wear suitable footwear when climbing a ladder.
-Do not spend long periods on a ladder without regular breaks.
-If you must use a ladder to gain access to a higher level, the top of the ladder should extend to
at least 1m above the landing point.
-Equipment to be carried while using a ladder should be light and easy to handle. If you are
lifting/lowering heavy or bulky equipment, the use of stairs, an elevator or a hauling bag with a
pulley system should be used.

-Top of ladder and roof top tent locating pins are non-load bearing
-Do not stand on the top 3 steps/rungs
-Do not exceed 75°
-Ensure ladder is on an even, level and unmovable base

Precautions
Opening the Ladder
With automatic locking, each rung of the ladder has 2 locking pins that are blocked, which are
automatically inserted into the slots of the uprights when the ladder is extended.
The condition of the lock is indicated by the two black buttons on the side of each rung, as
shown below.
Complete Extension of the Ladder
1. Place the ladder onto firm and level ground, then place one foot on the lowest rung.
2. Lift the top rung up and ensure that the buttons are locked (as shown above) Repeat this
process with each of the lower rungs in turn, until the arms are completely extended.
Partial extension of the ladder

2. Lift the top rung up and ensure that the buttons are locked (as shown above). Repeat
this process with each of the lower rungs until the desired ladder and rung height has been
achieved.
Shortening the Ladder
-Place the ladder on firm and level ground.
-Unlock the two buttons on the highest rung you can safely reach to lower the rung
down to the closed position. Continue doing this until the top rungs are all closed.
-Work your way down via each lower level, unlocking the buttons and then lowering
therungs until the ladder is all packed away.
