GardenSkill Mini Poly Tunnel User manual

1. Find a suitable location for the tunnel –flat
ground is best. Lay out all the components,
ensuring that there are no parts missing.
Starting from one end, thread the rods through
the sewn sleeves (located at either end and in
the middle section) to form your tunnel
supports.
2. Once the rods are threaded through all the
sleeves, bend them to form a hoop shape.
Place the metal ends in the OUTER holes of the
plastic tabs located on either side of the
tunnel. Repeat the process with the sewn tabs
in the middle and at the other end of the
tunnel. Your tunnel should now have formed a
taut hoop shaped structure, ready for use.
Stretch out and lay your tunnel on the ground
in our preferred location.

Mini Poly Tunnel Instructions
Kit Contents:
•Polytunnel cover
•3 rods
•4 guy ropes (note: ropes may already be attached to tunnel)
•Bag of ground pegs

3. Unzip the doors and locate the central drawstring inside the tunnel. Using the plastic
tab, adjust the drawstring to tighten the middle loop to the required shape. Peg down
along both sides of the tunnel, pushing pegs into the inner holes on the locator tabs.
4. Tie one end of the guy rope to the end of the tunnel, as shown in picture. Repeat on the
other side and then at the other end of the tunnel, so that there are two guy ropes at each
end. Adjust plastic tabs on the ropes to form loops, then peg down with ground pegs.
Tips
Garden tunnels could be damaged or move in strong winds. If you have particularly light soil or
windy conditions, we recommend using longer pegs to anchor the tunnel more firmly.
The tunnel has sewn pockets along both sides. These can be filled with ballast for extra stability.
For added stability in windy weather, push a bamboo cane or similar pole vertically into the
ground at each end of the tunnel. Tie the cane or pole to the top of the end hoops.
At the end of the season wipe down and pack all components away in the storage bag
