In that case, they replace the standard poles with a diamter of 40 mm.
- Page 5 1.2: PREPARING THE WOODEN POLES If you are assembling the stretch tent using aluminium poles, you can skip this step. Each pole to which corner or side clamps are attached must be pre-drilled. To do this, use a 16 mm drill bit and drill a 7 cm deep hole as centrally as possible.

- Page 10 STEP 3: ATTACHING TENSION STRAPS Attach the supplied tension straps to the corner and side clamps as follows. » Make a loop at the end of the tension strap. » Pull the loop through the hole in the clamp. » Pull both ends of the tension strap through the loop. There is one tension strap on each side clamp.
- Page 11 When the pegs are in the ground, knot the short tension strap with the tension clamp around the peg. Thread the long end of the tension strap which is hanging from the side clamp through the small clamp on the peg. Let the tension strap lie loose on the ground for a moment and don’t increase the tension on it yet.
- Page 12 » Now erect the side poles on the two other opposite sides. The side and corner poles are never fully perpendicular to the ground but are always slanted slightly outwards. STEP 6: ERECTING THE CENTRE POLE WITH POLE CAP Thanks to the large surface area of the pole cap (XL), the pressure on the canvas is better distributed and there are fewer remaining imprints of the pole cap in the canvas after use.
- Page 13 TIP - For tents starting from 10 x 10 m it is not easy to place the centre pole in the desired position right away. It’s best to initially place one pole in a random location so that the canvas is kept floating in order for the poles to be positioned in the correct locations.

Carry out the following checks once the tent has been standing for half a day or so and carry them out regularly for long-term assemblies.
