Handleiding Kelty Typhoon 4 Tent

Handleiding

Unfurl the rainfly and spread it out over the tent so the vestibules line up with the tent doors.

Clip the fly to the tent (see circle below) but don’t tighten the webs until all the buckles are clipped.

Take the short pole and thread it through the small sleeve inside the front vestibule (near the vent) and

set both pole ends in grommets.

Stake out the vestibules. If the weather is bad, don’t spare the stakes. Rigid tents like the

Typhoon have a lot of sail-power.

Pitching the Rainfly

Notes and Tips

❍ If you pitch the tent in a wind, anchor the tent before you put poles in.

❍ Gear alone probably won't hold down your tent even in winds as light as 25mph. Climbers have been

“maytagged” and seriously injured in their tents by high winds. Many tents have been destroyed by

unexpected winds rolling them away with gear inside! Anchor every stake loop and guyout.

❍ Loops on the tent's ceiling are for tying in the gear loft. You can also string cord between the loops to make

a drying rack. Hanging a flashlight from them is another favorite.

❍ Leaving the fly on the tent when you take it down is sometimes handy. Packing the tent and fly as a single

connected unit speeds setup and the tent will be immediately protected from rain when you pull it out next

time. Before packing you should dry out the tent and fly. This way you won't have to carry water rolled into

the tent and it will help keep the tent from mildewing.

❍ A good trick is to tie a small rock on to the stake

loop about a foot away from the tent. Then put a

big rock on top of the cord and pull it back against

the small rock. This method pulls tents out taut and

doesn’t lift the tent off the ground as does tying

directly to a large rock.

❍ Fire near your tent is a big no-no. Your tent can

burn. Never cook or use candles in your tent.

❍ To minimize UV damage from the sun, don’t keep tent set up for long periods of time or when not in use.

Your Tent is FlyBoy™ Equipped

Not many things are as easy to understand and use as the KELTY FlyBoy™.

FlyBoy™ does two things: it connects the rainfly to the tent poles and it accepts guyline; creating a

stronger and more stable structure. The strength bonus from just clipping on the FlyBoys is considerable.

Use guylines with it and you’ll be prepared for Wrath-O-God weather.

FlyBoy™ works like this:

2 Slide Clip to top of cord

3 Clip directly over seam and pole

4 Slide clip down onto Node

Attach cord to the FlyBoys™ like so:

❍ Spool off about three armspans of cord

❍ Fold cord in half and form a loop

❍ Thread the loop upward through the

center FlyBoy™ slot

❍ Flip the loop around the FlyBoy™

❍ Thread the cord ends through the loop

and tighten

Now you can stake out both strands using our V-Line compression

system and you can shift cord from one side to the other

without untieing any knots. Is this great or what?

Guy out FlyBoy™ like this:

The art of the guyout

Your FlyBoy™ is guyed to an anchor

(circle). The pullout (and therefore the

entire tent) is prevented from moving

away from the anchor but can move

sideways.

Two anchors at an angle cover for

each other. If the tent is being blown

leftward, the right anchor holds it. A

push to the right is held by the left

anchor.Put some effort into your

guyouts and your tent can withstand

some horrendous weather.

Most people simply run a cord straight out from their tent pullouts. This only anchors the tent from pulling

away

from the anchor. It doesn’t help sideways motion at all. But if you run two cords at an angle from the

side, all movement except toward the anchors will be prevented. Once you start using cords from the side

it becomes clear that they are much more useful than straight-out cords. This means you need fewer

anchors and your tent is better secured. So:

☞Thou shalt run two guyouts from each pullout at fair angle to each other.

☞Thine anchors shalt connect to two pullouts and be placed a fair distance from the tent.
