Assembly Instructions
Do not force the sprung steel frame, follow instrucons carefully
Step 1 Choosing the Site
Select a sheltered camp site protected from the wind that will not allow water to pond
under the tent floor. Clear a level area of all stones, twigs, etc.
Step 2 Standing the tent up
Remove pegs from carry bag. Remove the tent from the carry bag and carefully release
elasc strap, gently allow the tent to unfold and open fully. All four walls should be apart
and all inside corners open to 90 degrees.
Step 3 Peg down the tent
Posion the tent facing the desired direcon. Peg the four corners of the tent to the
ground by inserng the pegs through the loops around the base of the tent at an angle of
45 degrees. Firm but not ght.
Step 4 Install guy ropes
Use all the guy ropes aached to the tent. Make a loop (about 30 – 50cm long) with the
slider on the end of the rope and peg out as far as possible from the tent. Ensure all peg
down points are ulised and all guy ropes are aached firmly and remain firm.

Disassembly Instructions
While the unit is standing up.
Step 1
Release guy ropes and remove pegs with a claw hammer or peg puller. Do not remove
pegs from the ground by pulling on tent base as this may cause damage to the tent.
Now push any corner in towards the opposite corner to reduce four walls into two
double panels
Step 2
Fold the two double panels together to form one flat level structure and lay it on the
ground.
Step 3
While standing with your feet at the wide base, with your hands about 20cm up each
side of the unit, lithe base to your lap. Liyour hands gradually so the unit slumps
and curves about half way down between the base and top. Bring your hands together
in front of you so that each side touches. You should noce that coils are already
forming in the frame
Step 4
While sll holding the frame pass your lehand under your right hand to tuck one coil
secon inside the other. Your arms will cross during this step.
Step 5
Place the unit on the ground and even up the size of the coils so the unit can fit into the
carry bag.
Step 6
Slide the Ensuite into the carry bag for storage. Also place pegs into carry bag.
WARNING: At no stage is it necessary to apply any excessive force to achieve any of
the above steps. The steel frame is sprung loaded and if the correct acon is applied
the beach dome will pack up with lile or no force required. Excessive force will
result in damage to the frame and this is not covered by warranty.

PLEASE READ BEFORE SETTING UP YOUR TENT/SHELTER
CAMP SAFE - SAFETY HABITS
The fabric may burn if lein connuous contact with a flame from any source. Also, the
applicaon of any foreign substance to the tent fabric may render the flame resistant
properes ineffecve.
To prevent injury caused by gas poisoning or suffocaon -
•Do not use fuel burning, oxygen consuming devices inside the tent. This includes candles,
gas lanterns, kerosene lamps, stoves, cooking and heang appliances
•Do not use gas appliances of any kind inside the tent/shelter
Important Safety And Care Information
• Do not leave your
tent/shelter erected
in strong winds -
collapse the tent
onto the ground and
seek refuge in your
vehicle
• Do not pitch the tent/shelter near a
camp fire or any other flame source
• Do not use candles, matches or any
other flame source in or near the
tent (this includes stoves, cooking
equipment, lighng and heang
appliances)
• Only use recommended water
repellent compounds on the tent/
shelter fly
• Do not spray tent fabrics with
inseccides
To prevent injury caused by
electricity -
• Always exercise care when using
electricity and electric lighng in and

•Temporary use only. Although our fabrics are treated for extra UV resistance, connuous
exposure to sun light will break the fabric down. Fading of colour is an early warning sign.
OZtrail products are not designed as permanent dwellings or structures.
•During rain always lower awnings to avoid water ponding.
•Never store a wet and/or soiled tent/shelter; as mildew and corrosion can form within
a few days. This condion is not covered by the warranty. Always allow the tent to dry
completely before packing and stowing. If mildew occurs, use a sobristle brush or
sponge with mild detergent to clean it off. Aer beach use or wet weather treat all zips,
poles and pegs with silicon spray
•The elasc shock cord within the poles is provided for easy assembly of the poles. The
shock cord is not required for any structural reason. The poles and tent perform perfectly
well without the shock cord. Age, over stretching and mishandling may cause failure.
Shock cord is not covered by warranty. It’s easy to replace, see following instrucons.
•Somemes the zipper coil bursts open or does not close. This could be due to wear or
metal fague. The problem can be easily fixed, see instrucons that follow.
•Always carry a roll of heavy duty tape for simple repairs to small rips, cuts and ash burns.
This not only blocks the hole, it will prevent further tearing. Heavy Duty tape is also
helpful for emergency pole repairs and many other uses around the camp site.
•When removing pegs, do not use the webbing or corner of the tent as your handle.
Either use another peg, a peg remover or the claw of a hammer hooked under the peg to
remove them.
IMPORTANT - CONDITIONING YOUR NEW TENT
Once you get your new tent home, it is important to condion the tent. Simply pitch your
tent and wet it down with your garden hose. Pay parcular aenon to the seams - the
thread swells when wet and blocks the needle holes. The needle holes also shrink around
the thread. The fabric also benefits from this because the fibre swells into the weave and
the waterproof treatment seles within the fabric. Let the tent dry completely before doing
it a second me. Always pack your tent away dry.

Understanding Waterproofness
What is not covered by warranty!
OZtrail tents use waterproof and water repellent fabrics. However, with
the addion of seams, zips and other desirable features a recreaonal
tent will not be as waterproof as a car, house or other solid structures. The
following are common examples of how water can enter a tent: -
Condensaon - When warm moist air meets cooler air, condensaon occurs. The tent/
shelter fly forms an impermeable layer between the inside and outside condions. The
moisture inside the tent/shelter condenses on the fabric. Somemes in cold condions it
appears that the fabric is leaking when in fact the cause is condensaon. Condensaon can
be reduced if the tent/shelter is well venlated.
Zips - All care is taken in the design to cover zips with rain flaps. At mes wind driven rain
could force water under the rain flaps and through the zips. To minimise this, make sure all
doors and windows are closed with the rain flaps covering the zips.
Floor - If the ground is very wet or water pools under the floor, downward pressure of
standing or kneeling on the floor could force water through the floor fabric. To prevent this,
do not pitch the tent over hollows and make sure water drains away from the tent.
Structural Integrity - A perfectly pitched tent on perfectly flat ground is structurally strong
and most waterproof. During prolonged periods of rain and wind it may be necessary to
ghten guy lines and reset the tent pegs and aend to drainage around the tent. Sagging
and incorrect pitching weakens the tent structure and could allow water to pool on the fly
placing undue forces on the tent causing leaking and breakages.

Reducing the risk of jamming fabric in the zip ~
• When using the zip, hold the pull-tab between your thumb and forefinger with your
thumb facing you.
•As you are closing the zip clear the way in front and under the zip slider using the back of
your hand, and cup the zip slider underneath with your remaining 3 fingers.
Use this acon for opening or closing. Keep the fabric clear of the zip slider - zip and unzip
slowly.
What to do if the zipper gets caught ~
• Pull the fabric bit by bit out of the slider. Do not try and pull all the fabric in one go. Do
not force the slider or the fabric.
If the slider does not close the zipper properly ~
•With use, the jaws of the zip slider can open ever so slightly. When this occurs the slider
does not compress the zip teeth or coil together ghtly enough and the zip bursts open
or does not close.
• Undo the zip and with the slider at the end of the zip lightly crimp the jaws of the slider
together. Try top to boom axis first and then side to side axis.
Crimping A Zip-Slider
A
B
C
The most common reason why zips
burst open is that the zip slider does
not close the coil ghtly enough.
Wear and tear may cause the gap
marked A to open up.
By simply ‘crimping” the slider
together at points B & C with a pair
of pliers, this solves the problem
most of the me. Crimping in other
planes is worth a try if B & C does
not work. This is to be done when
the zip slider is sll aached to the
zip in the open posion.
