IMPORTANT
We strongly suggest setting up your new
canopy before initial use to insure that all parts
are present and to familiarize yourself with the
canopy wall’s assembly. This will have a great
effect on how well enjoy your product.
Warning
The canopy is very susceptible to damage from high winds and every precaution
should be taken to prevent damage to the canopy and frame. This is extremely
important when the canopy is being used on a hard surface such as a driveway or
concrete. Weights such as sandbags or bricks can be used in place of stakes. In
very heavy torrential rain care must be taken to insure that water does not collect
on the canopy top as this added weight will cause damage to the frame. The
canopy should NOT be left without first detaching the canopy from the frame and
allowing it to fall INSIDE the frame to reduce the risk of collecting rain water, or
the canopy can be taken down.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Carefully pull frame apart

WARNING:
TipsandTricks
Care
Ultra Violet (UV) Exposure
Your tent is made of UV resistant
polyester fabric which is resistant but
NOT impervious to the damaging effects
of long term sun exposure. We DO NOT
suggest long term set up of ANY of our
products as this will severely damage the
tent fabric.
Seam Sealing
Gigatent suggests that at a MINIMUM the
seams at the bottom of the windows
should be sealed using a product like
McNetts Seam Sure to prevent moisture
from coming through the needle holes.
Follow the manufacturer's instructions
when applying seam sealer.
Structural Integrity
Although the tent was constructed to
rigid specifications periods of wind and
soaking rain may loosen the stakes and
guylines to the point of allowing the
rainfly to flap. This can in turn cause the
poles to loosen weakening the overall
structure. Loosening of the rainfly can
also create pockets that can collect water
which can lead to pole failure. To insure
that this does not occur take care during
windy or rainy conditions that all of the
stakes and guylines are secure and tight.
Storage
DO NOT under any circumstances store
your tent wet or damp. Mildew will
quickly destroy a tents waterproof
coating. Allow your tent to dry and then
store in a cool dry place.
Washing Your Tent
NEVER machine wash a tent as this can
cause damage to the waterproof coating.
Hand wash with a mild soap and rinse
with clean water and allow to
COMPLETELY dry before storing. An
extremely dirty tent can be set up and
washed like a car or it can be washed in a
bathtub using your hands to agitate the
water or a soft brush.
When using the canopy on hard surfaces such as concrete, weights may be substituted for stakes. Gigatent highly
recommends using Gigatent brand Canopy Weights (sold separately). Care must be taken as the canopy will not be
as stable as if it were staked. The legs have different height settings and will allow the canopy to be tilted slightly
to provide the most protection from the elements. Do not collapse the frame with the canopy top attached as this
can allow the fabric to be damaged. Remove the canopy top prior to fully collapsing the frame. In sandy soil a
longer and wider stake will hold best. Even better use a heavy anchor made out of a piece of wood with a loop of
rope around it and buried in the sand with the other end tied to the canopy. When using the canopy in heavy rains
be sure that water does not start to collect on top as this will cause damage to the frame. Use the guy lines and
Velcro to maintain proper tension on the canopy top.
