SETUP INSTRUCTIONS
Hello, and thanks for buying one of our Sibley 600 Twin Uti-
mate tents. Here is the best way to put up your tent.
A list of tips can be found at the end of this document to help
you get years of use out of your tent, but the golden rule is:
ALWAYS, WITHOUT FAIL,
STORE YOUR BELL TENT BONE DRY
OR YOU RUN THE RISK OF
GETTING A MOULDY TENT!
ENJOY!
Please don't hesitate to contact us if you have any more ques-
tions, good ideas on better ways of doing something or just to
send in pictures for the gallery on the site.
Putting up a Sibley 600 Twin Utimate tent
Find a good spot to set up your tent.
1
Unpack the tent and store small pieces and loose items on
2
the tent bag so you don't loose any in the process.
If the canvas is not already attached place it on top of the
3
groundsheet (again make sure it's the right way round and the
guy ropes are outside) and line the door up with the doorway
on the ground sheet. Zip the canvas and the groundsheet to-
gether, all the way round (apart from the door).
2
Take the small pegs and,
4
pulling the groundsheet tight,
peg it out. The straps on the
bottom of the walls are only to
be used when the tent is pitched
without its groundsheet!
As this is the first time you've put it up it's a good idea to
5
put the poles together and place them on the groundsheet so
you get an idea of how it all goes together before you put the
canvas down. There are 3 A frames, 1 for the front door and
1 for each end. The two main poles connect to the cross bar.
Once you have pegged out the whole tent it's time to at-
6
tach the guy ropes. This takes a bit of time but you only do it
once. Firstly you need to sort out the guy ropes into their dif-
ferent sizes. As below you'll see there three different lengths,
the short ones are for the top of the wall, the middle ones are
for the tops of the A frames and the long ones are for the top
of the tent.
3
Tying the guy ropes on; take the same end and doubling
7
it over create a loop and tie it off. We've shown this below not
treaded through the canvas loop on the tent as it's easier to
make out but you want to tread it through the tent first so
you end up with the canvas loop on the tent being where the
thumb is in the right hand image.
