First Pitch
In order to familiarize yourself with your new tent, we
suggest that you test pitchit before embarking on a
wilderness trip.
Select a Site
At your campsite, look for an area that is protected from
the wind, in order to ensure sleeping comfort. Clear the
area of debris, such as sharp stones and sticks which
might abrade or puncture the tent floor. Choose an area
that will drain well when in rains.
Unfurl the Tent and Assemble the Poles
Unfurl the tent and lay the tent oor flat on the ground.
Carefully unfold the shock-corded pole sections and
allow them to slide together. Do not allow the poles
sections to snap together. This can lead to serious pole
damage. Make certain that the insert of each pole section
is fully inserted into the next pole section
(Figure 1). You will have four poles all-together, three
poles of equal length and one short pole. The short pole
will have a slight pre-bend in it.
Stake Out the Tent
Although the Parallax is a freestanding tent, we suggest
that you always stake out the floor for greater safety and
stability, especially in high winds. First stake the web-
bing loops at points A & B (Figure 2). Then move to
the back of the tent, pulling the webbing loops at cor-
ners E & F until the tent floor is semi-taut. Lastly stake
points C & D making sure the tent is taut.
Erect the Tent
Insert the metal tips of one of the main poles into the
grommets at points A & F. and the tips of a second pole
into the grommets at points B & E. Pull the two poles
up so that they intersect towards the rear of the tent and
hook the Clip-Loc over the widest angle of this intersec-
tion, point G (do not attach the bungee cord yet). Now
attach the Swift Clips along the A-F, B-E axis, these
are designated with orange webbing. Take the remain-
ing long pole and insert the tips into the grommets at
points C & D, and attach the Clip-Locs at points H &
I. Now attach the remaining Swift Clips along the C-
D axis, designated with the gray webbing. With the
remaining pre-bent short pole insert the ends into the
pole buckets at points J & K and attach the two Swift
Clips along this pole axis. Now attach the bungee cord
on the 3 Clip-Locs by wrapping the bungee in the direc-
tion crossing the open gate of the clip. Wrap the cord
around the pole intersection 2 to 4 times, depending on

How do I impregnate a tent? Verified

Pitch the tent, clean the cloth and let it dry. Apply the impregnation agent on the cloth with a plant sprayer or other spray. It is also possible to use a paint roller or brush. The cloth needs to be fully saturated with the impregnation agent. Also treat the inside of the tent. Thoroughly clean any windows with a moist cloth. Do not let the impregnation agent dry on it. Let the tent cloth fully dry. Repeat the treatment if needed.

Can I repair a tear or hole in the canvas of my tent myself? Verified

There are special pieces of self-adhesive patches of cloth available for synthetic tent canvases. Stick one of these patches on both sides of the hole or tear. For cotton tent canvases or mixed material tent canvases it's best to use patches that can be ironed on. This will require an iron.

The impregnation agent leaves white stains or a white haze on the tent cloth, what can I do about this? Verified

If the agent leaves a white haze or white stains on the tent cloth, this means you have applied more impregnation agent on those areas. This is not harmful and the stains often disappear over time. It is not advisable to use less impregnation agent to prevent stains. The cloth needs to be fully saturated with the impregnation agent to give good results.
