The T-Mini Kidz provides a unique opportunity for you and your family to
experience the great outdoors with a whole new level of freedom and comfort.
The T-Mini comprises of a double hammock, suspended in tension above the
ground for 2 people using our new Pull-to-Tension, Press-to-Release system..
The unique design creates a comfortable base camp, irrespective of ground
conditions, as well as providing increased protection from, snakes and other
predators – if you venture somewhere more exotic.

Installation and use of the Tentsile Tree Tent may
involve heights, can be dangerous and may lead
to injury and/or death.
The installation must never be executed by
minors, and extreme care and caution must be
taken when executed by adults.
Do not use any other components, parts, tools or
materials other than those included in the Tentsile
Tree Tent package, recommended in this manual
or in other Tentsile literature.
A hanging and/or suspension system is only as
strong as its weakest link and all instructions and
guidelines must be followed.
The Tentsile Tree Tent must only be used in
the manner described in this manual. When
assembled and installed, the Tentsile Tree Tent
places signicant force on the anchor points;
great care must be exercised when using it to
decrease the risk of injury and/or death.
Overloading the Tentsile Tree Tent with more
than 440lbs (200kg) increases the forces and
may cause anchor, Tree Tent and/or any parts
to fail, resulting in injury and/or death.
The manufacturer and resellers of the Tentsile
Tree Tent explicitly disclaim any and all
responsibility and liability for any death,
paralysis, injury, and/or damage to any
person or property that may occur that arises
out of or is in any way related to the use of
this product.
Using any equipment that is suspended above
ground can be a dangerous activity that may
result in serious injury and/or death even
when used properly. Use at your own risk and
always use common sense.

Positioning the T-Mini Kidz
Tentsile Tree Tents need 3 secure and strong anchor points to suspend
from. The distances are marked below. Once the location is found, lay out
the T-Mini Kidz on the ground with the corners facing your selected trees.
Alignment
Use the sight tag on the side of the tent.
Look along the tag and ensure it and the strap
are inline with the tree.

Floor Strap
Calibration
23
Tentsile Trees Tents come pre-calibrated, but will
stretch over time, so you will need to loosen the
underoor strap, using the buckle every so often.
Here is how.
When the T-Mini Kidz is up, the centre (underoor)
strap should provide a clear delineation between
both hammock berths. To increase this tension
(and therefore separation between the two
hammocks) just tighten the adjuster buckle strap
on the underside.
This re-tensioning will need to take place every so
often as the materials stretch into full size over time.
If you are using the T-Mini Kidz alone, you can
slack off this strap completely and have the whole
oor as a large single hammock berth to yourself.
