5. Practical Tips
9 The individual separating walls, floor tarps, as well as the tent
tarpaulins are removed easily and quickly if and as needed.
Hook and loop fasteners are used to attach the tarpaulin to
the pneumatic supporting frame.
9 When using tent heaters, avoid blowing heat directly onto
parts of the tent.
9 If needed, lights can be suspended from the supporting frame.
9 Additional tents are easily connected using hook and loop
overlaps.
9 After use, clean the tent with a mild cleanser before packing.
Allow the parts to dry at normal room temperature. Treat outer
surfaces with commercially available impregnating agents.
9 Follow the instructions of the folding plan to fold and pack
the tent. Make sure that the tent is folded and packed in an
orderly manner and as instructed to ensure the tent is easy to
unpack next time it is needed.
6. Repeated Inspections
The tents should be subjected to a visual and functional inspec-
tion by a trained technician at least once a year. This requires infla-
ting the tent to approx. 50 % of the max. working pressure (0.25
bar). Check all pressurized parts for fissures, cracks, cuts, puncture
holes, detached spots, and heat or chemical damage. If the pres-
sure does not experience a significant drop within one hour, the
tent is ready for use.
Please contact the manufacturer in case of larger damage or if you
have any questions. Comply with DIN 7716 if storing the pneuma-
tic universal tents long-term.
7. Repair Instructions
Minor damage such as cracks, cuts, or punctures (max. 4 cm) can
be repaired by the operator with the enclosed repair kit. Please
follow these steps:
1. Select the size of the patch so that the patch extends approx.
4 cm beyond the damaged area on all sides.
2. Mark patch area on the supporting frame.
3. Roughen the area of the patch on the surface of the sup-
porting frame as well as one side of the patch.
4. Apply a thin layer of the special adhesive to the roughened
spot on the supporting frame and the roughened side of the
patch.
5. Allow special adhesive to dry for approx. 10-15 minutes until
no longer sticky.
