Packing up the tent
If the tent is wet, allow it to dry before packing it up. If time does not permit, you
can pack the tent up, but be sure to open the tent up again and allow to dry
before putting it into storage.
Step one: To pack up the tent,
remove all tent contents, the roof
cover, ground stakes and string.
Then push the lower bar
downwards near one of the hinge
braces. The locking mechanism
should disengage and the tent
will collapse.
Step two: carefully place the
center pole in the center of the
collapsed tent, making sure all of
the tent poles are now bending
concave (inwards) again, as
shown.
Step three: tarting at the end of
one of the tent poles, grab the
very end and lift it up and
towards the center pole. The
move around the tent in
sequence, lifting up all of the
poles, while tucking any air-filled
sections of the tent downwards
into the middle.
Step four: Lay the tent down on
its side and try to press all extra
air out of the tent. Then roll the
tent over and over, wrapping it up
into itself tightly, which will expel
all of the remaining air.
Once the tent is tightly rolled up,
tie the tent up with the tie-wrap
and return it into its carry bag
along with the roof cover, ground
stakes and string.
