They are classed as a Touring Tent (type T) in accordance with ISO 5912. We are aware that some SoulPad customers do choose to use their SoulPad for long periods at a time, and in some instances as a permanent shelter (some with far more success than others). This is done so against our recommendation. -

Erect the SoulPad according to the instructions. Never assume you will remember the order in which to erect your SoulPad. Bad habits are easy to fall in to and can have a negative impact on the longevity of your SoulPad. -

Guy Lines Preparation 5. Now it’s time to get the guy lines ready. The first time you erect your SoulPad you will need to unravel all of the guy lines. Do not peg out the guy lines at this stage; we’re just getting them ready for later steps. - Page 6 17. Once the first three guy lines are in place at the front, go to the back of your SoulPad and repeat with the opposite three guy lines at the back (remember, with plenty of slack).

HOW TO ROLL THE WALLS UP AND DOWN. To roll up: 1) Un-peg the canvas loops on the outside of the SoulPad tent, at the base of the walls but leave them in position in the ground. 2) Unzip the canvas fly from the groundsheet along each section until the two are completely separate. -

Mildew is often irremovable, and so its prevention is of very high importance. If you are forced to pack your SoulPad tent away when it is damp or wet then it must be erected again within 24 hours, even in adverse weather. -

Version 2, Published Feb 2012. © SoulPad Ltd. 2012 Never block the exit of your SoulPad on the inside or the outside of the tent. In the event of an emergency the exit will need to be clear of obstacles to allow the occupants to vacate the tent as quickly as possible. -
Page 10: Particular Problems That May Arise
(cooking stains, wine and sun cream) all limit the lifespan of your cotton canvas SoulPad tent, as will the level of care and maintenance that you choose to apply. Any problem areas should be dealt with immediately. - Page 11 Immediate effects of UV can be ‘bleaching’ - a change in colour of the canvas to lighter shades. Compare your SoulPad canvas fly sheet with the canvas bag it came in. They are made of the same material but it is likely that the canvas bag has been less exposed to UV.

Page 12: Cleaning Your Soulpad
SoulPad, always re-waterproof that area too. Whether it is a small area that is being treated, or the entire SoulPad, this is an important rule to follow as failure to do so will lead to leaks. -

Larger rips and tears will need to be patched, but again use a needle and thread to do so. Try to use the same canvas colour and type as the original SoulPad. If applying a patch, try to use a diamond shape with the peak of the diamond being upmost.
