TURBO
TENT
Congratulations on choosing a BlackWolf Turbo tent,
please read through this instruction booklet
thoroughly before using your new tent.
BEFORE YOUR FIRST CAMPING TRIP
We strongly recommend you pitch your tent before
you take it away for the first time to familiarise
yourself with the process and to double check that all
the components are included.
We recommend you weather your tent by hosing it
thoroughly, the stitching in the bound seams will
swell and this will help seal the stitching holes.
Please note and fully understand that no tent can be
guaranteed 100% waterproof. Whilst the fabric your
tent is made from is waterproof in certain weather
conditions such as strong wind and driven rain can
cause some leakage through seams and zippers.
USING YOUR TENT
Always peg out all guy ropes at all times. In cool
weather or high humidity condensation can form
inside your tent. This is not coming through the
fabric but is water vapour that is inside the tent
(created when you breathe and perspire and also
from evaporation o wet items inside your tent).
The best way to minimise condensation is to
maximise ventilation by opening gusseted windows,
vents and doors to allow air to flow through.
AFTER USE CARE
Where possible clean and dry your tent before
packing it away, if the weather is bad and you have to
pack your tent wet it is important to get it out and
thoroughly dry it as soon as possible. NEVER store
your tent wet, mildew can form on the fabric, pegs
and other components can corrode. After coastal
camping trips it is a good idea to rinse your gear in
fresh water.
Store your tent in a dry, well ventilated place.

unclip the strap around the
top of the frame that holds
the pole bundle together.

corners into position so the

5. Un-fold the fly and lay it over the tent, the awning is at the front over the door. Clip the fly in place
at the feet of the Turbo frame leave the straps loose. Secure the Velcro loops on the inside of the fly to
the frame.
6. Extend the awning roof pole and place the curved spigot into the hole at the front of the hub.
7. Extend the 3 part awning pole to approximately the height of the centre hub and thread the spigot
through the hole in the awning roof pole and the centre front of the awning. Extend the roof pole until
the fly fabric is taught then tighten the black collar to set the length.
8. Extend the 2 part awning poles to approximately the height of the upper knuckles and thread the
spigots through the corner eyelets. Unravel the guy ropes stored in the zippered fin pockets and peg
out at approximately 45 degrees to the tent. The centre awning guy rope should be pegged directly in
front of the tent
Short guy ropes are supplied for pegging out the gussetted window flaps for ventilation.

TURBO TENT PACKING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Unpeg the guy ropes and roll them up and
return to zippered pockets in guy rope fins.
Unpeg awning guy ropes and roll up. Twist the
awning poles to release and push top section
into bottom section for packing. Unclip and
remove the fly, allow to dry, if wet, before
packing. (Your tent can be packed up wet but
should be taken out and dryed as soon as
possible) Fold the fly to fit into the bag and put
aside. Clean and dry all pegs before putting
them back into their bag.
2. Go inside the tent, grab the handle in the
centre of the roof and pull down, hold your other
hand up to ‘catch’ one of the roof poles as the
frame ‘pops’ down.
3. Lower the centre of the tent to the ground
and step back outside the tent.

4. Press the buttton on the lower knuckles to
release allowing the legs to fold.
5. Unpeg the tent corners and fold the corner up
towards the centre of the tent, thread the
webbing loop over the folded knuckle to hold
the leg in the folded position.
6. Wrap the webbing strap around the pole
bundle to hold it together.
7. Organise the floor folds into neat triangles,
spend some time getting these neat and flat
because it makes rolling the tent much easier.
8. Fold all the triangle floor panels to one side of
the pole bundle and roll the tent around the
poles. Secure the rolled tent with the strap.
