Lay the Tipi tent out so as to have the Door zip in the middle and the base spread out nearest your feet.
Find the Loose 'T' Strap
From the zip count 4 peg straps to the left and clip the longest part of the 'T' Strap in at the back of the peg strap.
From the zip count 3 peg straps to the right and clip in the other side. You should now have a horizontal strap with a shorter strap pointing away from you towards the back of the Tipi tent.
The last remaining T strap is made to the 6th peg strap to the right of the door zip.
Now peg out the three points of the T strap.
I recommend placing the top hat on and using a quick release knot on the guy tabs nearest the bottom (these can be adjusted after its up, also if you are not using a stove then we suggest saftety cliping the two overlapping ends of the top hat in three plces prior to putting it on, alternatively use the top hat guy lines to over lap the the material by about 10mm or so.
Insert the pole so that it is just in front of the point at which the T strap converges.
Peg out the remaining base pegs inserting them into the ground with only 1.5" remaining above ground (use a rubber mallet only)
Leave the panels either side of the door fairly loose as these will tighten when the door is zipped shut. (if you can not zip the door shut fully then loosen the peg tighteners either side of the zip and the next peg tighteners along. When using the Inner tent the outter door can be shut with the clips only if required.
If inserting the inner ensure all clips are approximately half way down the clip straps before insertion.
To inset the inner align the zip with the outter tent zip and create a donut in front of the pole, pulls the base of the pole towards the outter door to allow a gap of a few inches to slide the inner donut under, then replace the pole to the original position. Clip the top clips in then the two clips on each panel working your way around until you get to the front (If using the ground sheet only one side clip is used for the inner tent.)
The ground sheet goes in next and the pole does not need to be lifted as there is a slit in the material.
All guy lines should be secured after the top hat, this can be done 2 guy lines to one peg in calm wind and two guy lines to two pegs for winds upto Force 5.

V.good product. Took it away at weekend to Derbyshire. Up in 10 mins on first attempt (children supervising). Good pole design. Good size for the 3 of us. Withstood 24 hours solid rain, inner damp but groundsheet stayed dry. Stayed firm in heavy gusts. Pa...

Maurice - 21/06/2008

Great piece of kit. I would give 10/10 for value for money compared to the competitors. I found this Lavvu to be very stable with the inclusion of the double guy lines. The addition of the inner tent allowed me to have an insect/midge free trip to the Sco...

Pretty much bomb-proof

Angus Robins - 19/06/2008

I use the tentipi Arrans at work when expeditioning in the highlands of scotland with groups from around the country and in my opinion these tents are every bit as good. The main differences are the lighter weight of fabric - perfect for personal use but ...
