Tent on the shock absorbers

Before refitting the tent, it must be properly installed on flat ground for 14 pegs. When the tent is set in one of its corners to measure the distance from the bottom corner to the bottom of the peg top procrastination (about 100 cm, this number is added another 10 cm). Next, measure the distance from the bottom up to the pegs and the front side of upper braces to each of the variables also added to 10 cm of the tent is removed, put the bottom up, and measure the length of the diagonal (about 180 cm). This value of 220 cm end up Then cut two ribbons from the wick (or replacing tape) with a length of 400 cm each and hem them tightly diagonally to the bottom of the tent so that the remaining four by the end of 110 cm, which is attached iron rings. Front and rear belts do in the event that large stakes put outside the tent. If they are put inside the tent, then the tape is not required (the bottom will cuddle the lower end of the big cola). After graduating from the binder tapes are transferred to the establishment of the shock absorbers. To do this, cut strips of rubber length (width mentioned above), equal to approximately% of the length corresponding to the lower (already fastened), procrastination, and attach one end of the ring, which is attached the lower brace and the other - to the corner of the roof corresponding angle tents. In the same sequence attached, and four lateral shock absorber (rubber take a little longer - for the convenience of management, and the remainder cut off). Once made shock absorbers, a tent can be set. Spread-eagle her, pull diagonally across the first two ends to the limit. Through the iron rings scoring stakes. Just stretch the other two ends. Tape, hemmed tightly to the bottom, prevents it from skewing. Then set at the same time two large stake and pull procrastination, resulting in a stretched roof tent. The latter strengthens the side procrastination. Improved so the tent has several advantages: a) it is set on eight pegs instead of fourteen, and b) shock-guy automatically adjusts the correct tension tents, preventing distortions, precipitation in all weather conditions (rain, sun), and c) a tent can be properly installed without light in the darkness, and d) in the camping, and even more so in the competition setting a tent takes half the time and can be quickly implemented by two tourists.
