BEFORE YOU GO CAMPING, DO THIS FIRST!

Before you start putting up your tent, we encourage you to assemble

your wall tent at home or any place, prior to your camping trip to get

familiar with the set up process before you arrive at camp.

Make sure to read the owner’s manual carefully before you start setting

up your canvas tent.

SEASONING YOUR TENT

With your canvas tent set up, we recommend that you spray the tent

with water and allow it to dry completely. This process is known as

seasoning the canvas. The water causes the bers to swell and tighten

up, closing any ber holes made in the manufacturing process. You

only need to “season” your tent once.

The set up process requires only one person and it takes around twenty

minutes. If you have a helping hand, it can be done faster. Make sure

to read the warnings and care instructions to ensure longevity of your

tent. As it’s made from durable canvas, it will last longer and worth

every cent of your investment!

Please contact us if you have any questions, any bright ideas or if you

think we should do things differently. We would love to hear about

your experience!

WARNINGS

Fire Safety:

KEEP ALL FLAME AND HEAT SOURCES AWAY FROM THIS PRODUCT FABRIC

The materials used in the manufacture of the Fire Water Repellent fabric meet the ame

resistance requirements of CPAI-84. It is not reproof. The fabric will ignite and burn if left in

continuous contact with any open ame or other sources of ignition. The application of any

foreign substance to the tent fabric may render the ame resistant properties ineffective.

Canvas tents are not for use with open re pits. Fire safety is the responsibility of the user. We

encourage you to educate yourself and practice vigilant re safety. Do not hesitate to contact

us if you have any questions or concerns at any time. It is imperative to acknowledge the

local rules and regulations and if you are unsure, to ask about camp site / local policies or

refer to the local civil protection/defense, forestry, re service websites for further information.

Always check local re restrictions prior to starting a re as rules and regulations may change

frequently throughout the year.

NOTE: White Duck Outdoors cannot be held liable for any damage or injury to persons or

property resulting from the use or misuse of re or ammable materials in or around our tents.

PRECAUTIONS:

The following precautions should be taken when camping:

Be certain that your tent is properly ventilated (especially if you decide to ignore the rst

warning and use a heater in your tent). Carbon monoxide is real. Don’t die by suffocation.

Vents and screens are built into the tent body.

Be sure to anchor your tent properly—this is not a free-standing tent—follow these instructions

for proper staking practices and ensure that all guylines & pegs are securely xed.

Be certain that children are supervised in and around the tent at all times.

Do not use candles, matches or open ames of any kind in or near a tent.

It is better to not cook inside a tent, but if you are, do not leave cooking unattended. Make

sure grills, cooking appliances and similar must not be placed nearer than 1 meter to tent

canvas. There should be no use of open res or glowing charcoal inside tents or near tent

canvas - re can spread very quickly. There should be no use of open res or glowing char-

coal inside tents or near tent canvas as there is a signicant risk from the buildup of Carbon

Monoxide (CO), particularly in a conned space inside the tent. All exible tubes and

couplings to the gas burner should be checked for leakage and that it is in good order

Build campres downwind and several meters away from a tent and be sure to fully extin-

guish campres before leaving a campsite or before retiring for the night.

Exercise extreme caution when using fuel-powered lanterns or heaters inside a tent and use

battery-operated lanterns whenever possible. Do not refuel lamps, heaters or stoves inside a

tent. Extinguish or turn off all lanterns before going to sleep.

Ensure that electrical appliances are in good condition with no frayed wires etc. Do not leave

laptops or phones tables plug in and charging unattended

Do not smoke in a tent or store ammable liquids inside a tent. Installation of log burners or

heating equipment at your own risk.

Do not pitch under trees, on cliffs or places where risk of falling

White Duck Outdoors strives to manufacture the best possible products for our customers. Our

one year warranty covers products against defects in materials or workmanship. This warranty

is cheerfully extended to the original owner only and excludes normal wear and tear (e.g.,

zippers that wear out after extended use) or misuse. Please follow care instructions. If, after

inspection, a product is determined by us to be defective in workmanship or materials, we will

repair or replace it at our option, at no cost to you.

FIRST! Remember, a dry tent is a healthy tent. Do not store your tent when it is damp. If you

must break camp and roll up a damp tent, be sure to stake it back out and set it up fully when

you get home so it can air dry. Even small amounts of moisture (when your tent is stored) can

cause mold to grow on the natural bers of the canvas. This same mold will also damage your

tent’s water repellency. Mold growth on your tent is not covered by warranty.

WARRANTY:

QR CODR

NOTE:

Pitch your tent on a clear ground, remove debris, rocks or sticks where you plan to set up your

canvas wall tent. The adjustment pins on poles and angle kits are color coded as golden and

silver to simplify the setting up process. (Refer to Image 2)

The roof poles which are inated or deated and the side & middle ridge poles are used to

make the roof frame structure. The measurement of the poles is given below for easy

identication, all you need is a measuring tape. The foot poles have a base plate with buckle

clip lock system at the end so it’s easy recognizable.

Step # 1: Unpack the tent and poles bags

TIP: Lay every component out before assembling, this will make the pitching process fast and

easy.

Take the tent cover, poles and angle kits out from their waterproof bags.Lay out all the key

components on the ground and sort out all frame pieces i.e. poles and angle kits. Determine

canvas tent orientation (direction of entrance you prefer) and position angle kits & tent frame on

oor in appropriate location for set up. Layout the pieces in progression in which they will be

assembled. Keep this manual in front of you while taking out all the tent items from the box.

Step # 2: Assemble the tent frame:

Assemble the middle ridge poles forming one long piece with the help of 3-way and 4-way

golden colored angle kits.

Place the roof poles in angle kits to complete the frame

Then, attach side ridge poles one by one along with silver colored angle kits

Look down the frame to make sure all the Side Ridge, Middle Ridge and Roof poles are in line

and properly positioned in the angle kits as per their color codes (golden and silver). In the

end, attach the steel wire on top front part of tent frame on side (silver) and middle (golden)

angle kits.

Step # 4: Place tent fabric on top of frame:

TIP: Unzip all door zippers to prevent strain on zippers.

Once the roof is together and the frame is low to the ground at one side, pull the tent cover over

the roof making sure to orient the front door as desired and position tent so it ts over the frame

at all angles. Grab the bottom part of the tent and pull up and over the frame.

Tip: Flip up the side walls above the eaves of the tent for easy installation of foot poles and tie

up the Stove Pipe Shield ap

Pull down side walls of the tent to ground level over the frame, keeping it even as you pull. The

angles of the tent wall should match with the angles of the frame. Work it over the frame gradu-

ally. Make adjustments to even or square the tent.

TIP: Adjust your tent to the frame. Do not pull hard on your tent or seams and zipper doors will

be weakened. The canvas fabric cover should t the tent effortlessly and smoothly without

requiring any force.

TIP: Do not drag the tent cloth when assembling and dismantling in order to avoid damage to

canvas

Step # 3: Install foot poles on the tent:

Attach foot poles (with base plate at the end) of one lateral side to (side) ridge poles. Lift the

edge of the tent frame and place the foot poles in the angle kits of side ridge poles. All of the

pins on tent poles and angle kits are color coded so the color of the pole button should match the

one on angle kit for accurate installation of the tent. Make sure the wall poles are up only on one

side, this will make the next step easier.

STORE YOUR CANVAS TENT

STEP 1: Clean Out Your Tent

Sweep the tent out completely. Remove all of your belongings from the tent and close all of the

windows.

Once again, allow the tent to dry out completely before storing it.

STEP 2: Breakdown Tent

When you are sure your tent is COMPLETELY BONE DRY, pull out all the pegs. Place them in the

tool kit bag provided. Make sure to remove any loose dirt before putting them in the bag.

Unzip and detach the groundsheet and canvas ﬂy cover.Remove the door entrance pole and center

pole, disassemble it, and return it to the bag provided.

Note: Remove the pins now and store them in the tool kit bag provided. Do not pull up on the tent

loops to remove your pegs and pins, this could cause the loops to tear.

STEP 3: Pack the Canvas Tent

Make sure to never store it either wet or damp. The moisture trapped inside will make the life of tent

shorter. At times, you don’t have much of a choice but to pack it; in damp condition, make sure you

hang it up to dry within a day. Don’t set up the tent again, just let it dry at any place as it needs

air.

Remember the groundsheet is detached from the canvas tent cover, make sure it is facing the

ground to protect your tent. Keep the tent off the grass or ground (to keep it clean and tint free).

Fold front and back edges of the tent to the middle. Fold the tent lengthwise down the middle (fold

half of the tent over). Now fold the bottom up from both sides and roll the whole tent into a tight

bundle. Make sure that the folded tent should be the size of the tent bag. Use the ties to secure the

tent as a roll. Next, lift one end, slip the bag over the tent and place everything else inside. Place

both the pole bag and tool kit bag inside while folding the tent or you can put it on top of the tent

inside the bag.

Make sure groundsheet is facing the ground, it will protect the canvas tent from getting any dirt or

stains on it. Once the tent cover is securely packed, roll the groundsheet and pack it in the pole

bag provided.

Step # 6: Insert the stakes into the ground

Place the stakes through the guylines, staking down the perimeter of the tent. In line with each

bungee cord on the eaves of the tent, place a stake in the ground at least ve feet away from the

tent. Attach and tighten the guylines gently through the metal runners to adjust the tension. Pound

the stakes in a way that top of the stake is touching the ground.

First insert the pins that are used to stake the tent through bottom eyelet/grommet at front door and

back wall. Also, to stake the mud ap at each section.

Jpegs are used to stake the foot pole into the ground. Make sure the clip at the end of foot pole’s

base plate is locked.

Vpegs are used to stake the guylines attached to the bungee cord outside the wall tent to the

ground, then adjust the tension accordingly.

TIP: Stakes should be driven in at a 45 degree angle away from the tent for optimal pitching. Guy

ropes are approximately at the same angle as the tent roof. In case of high winds, tie the guy ropes

to trees, stumps or logs. Another method is to have two guy ropes and stakes for each eave corner.

Tip 2: All the guy ropes need to follow the lines of the seams in the roof. Adjust the guy rope slider

which will allow adjustment in both directions. It is important to make sure the tent stays

symmetrical and that the tension is evenly spread

Step # 5: Tent Walls

Install remaining foot poles on the opposite

side of tent

Mount the lateral side and attach remain-

ing legs on the other side of the tent
