Preparing Your Tent

1. Lay out the contents of Tenshi™ and make sure that you received all of the

following items: tent, stuff sack, vestibule, Condensation Curtain™, 2 straight
poles, a curved vestibule pole, 8 stakes, 4 guy lines, Seamgrip® with nozzle,
pole repair sleeve, and Tear-Aid™ patch.

2. NOTE: TENT IS NOT FULLY WATERPROOF UNTIL IT IS SEAM SEALED. In some

areas of the tent, seams are sewn directly through the tent shell to create a
very strong construction. Water can leak through these areas so it is necessary
to cover the stitching with Seamgrip®. The Seamgrip® also adds strength so
you may choose to apply it to all exterior seams. However, it is only necessary
in the areas highlighted below.

To seam seal your tent, first locate the areas highlighted above. These

locations include pole wraps, the STAT™, the top of rear door , and vent seams.
Clean any dirt or moisture off the surface. Carefully squeeze the Seamgrip®
through the applicator tip onto the stitching. Use only enough to completely
cover the stitching. Be careful not to contaminate zippers and Velcro®. Allow
at least 24 hours for curing before use. If the Seamgrip® remains tacky, you can
lightly dust the fully cured Seamgrip® with talcum powder.
