Nash Double-top extreme

[Christer Sjaunja@]

Bought a Nash Double-top extreme and of course left the instructions out in the rain so now they are unreadable. I really dont remember how we set it up (ok I was drunk) so I will need instructions for the next time. I have mailed nash but no answer as of yet. Anybody else here who owns this bivvie? In that case I would be extremely grateful for a scanning of the instructions....

unfold the tent so the door is facing upwards
go to left side and connect all poles together on that side
go to right side and repeat operation
then complete assembly by joining remaining poles together
along the door edge underneath the groundsheet attached at the pivot point of poles (where they all join together) is a webbing strap. clip this on to metal ring attached to the other side of the poles. this will pull the poles in to create tension and give correct size to bivvy.

the DT is supplied with tension/spreader bars. these are the short poles with plastic clips/connectors at each end except for one that has a cap at one end this is for the ground

taking a pole with clips at both ends thread through the sleeves sewn on to the centre/top of the bivvy and clip on to the main frame hoops, repeat for all poles working from back to front

The back pole with the cap is the last one to be fitted. cap rests on ground

now peg out the DT
start at the back, peg through the two rings on either side of the back bar, next move to the front.

make sure the bivvy door is ZIPPED UP. this will maintain the correct shape

peg either side of the door, miss out the next 2. peg out the furthest 2 (the ones at the pivot point).

move to the back. peg the rings nearest the pivot point and then the ones between this and the back pole. do both sides

finally move to the front and peg the last two remaining rings and the canopy pegging points on the left and right

unzip main door. pegging points are featured either side of the of the inner mesh door. peg through eyelet in groundsheet, this hold door down and correct tension for doorway.

when packing up always make sure webbing strap is undone to prevent damage
