WASHING:
Hand wash with a sponge, using a mild soap. Never use detergents or washing machines as they may damage the coating or seams.
remember to use seam sealer once shelter had been washed to insure waterproofing.
HW L NG WILL A NYL N SHELTER LAST?
Various conditions will affect the length of service which you receive:
a. A nylon shelter which is left erected all summer may last only one or two seasons, as the sun’s ultra-violet rays
damage the nylon.
b. Never store a shelter wet or damp, as mildew may develop. It will not harm nylon, however, mildew is unsightly
and may damage other parts of the shelter (i.e. zipper tapes).
c. Avoid spraying insect repellent or hair sprays, etc. on shelter fabric as they may be harmful.
REPAIR:
For small tears use a an adhesive backed rip-stop nylon patch. We recommend Texsport Nylon Shelter Repair Kit which may be found
at your local outdoor outfitter or camping store.

WARNING:
Texsport shelter fabrics are flame retardant treated per C.P.A.I.-8 specification. However, for your safety, we recommend that NO
OPEN FLAME BE USED IN OR NEAR YOUR SHELTER.
S ME ADDITI NAL INF RMATI N:
Make sure you stake the shelter (with the shelter stakes included) in windy weather, or if you anticipate afternoon winds coming up
while you are away from your campsite. Stake one corner, then stake each consecutive corner in a clockwise rotation. Make sure the
shelter remains tight. Always place your shelter a safe distance from your campfire - unstaked shelter placed upwind of the fire can be
blown into the fire. shelter placed downwind of the fire are often showered with tiny sparks that can burn holes into the lightweight
fabrics of your shelter.
WATERPR FING Y UR SHELTER:
Texsport shelters are made from coated water-repellent fabrics. However, the sewing process, necessary in all shelter fabrication, can
cause water leakage where the sewing needles have perforated the fabric in the seams. Without treatment the shelter will leak. Every
new shelter needs to be seam sealed to make it water tight. We recommend using Texsport Spray Waterproofing/Seam Sealer which
may be found at your local outdoor outfitter or camping store.
SHELTER STAKES:
All shelters should be staked down. The stakes supplied with your shelter are effective for most conditions; however, specialized stakes
are recommended in certain cases:
a. Sand Stakes:........Long broad stakes designed to hold in loose sand.
b. Steel Stakes: ........Most effective in hard, rocky or frozen soil. These can rust and their sharp edges could damage
..........................the shelter if stored with the shelter. In extremely hard soil a steel rod can be used to make
..........................the starter hole.
c. Skewer Stakes: ....Lightweight, but less holding power that the standard stakes.
d. Snow Stakes: ......The most common method is to bury objects with a great deal of surface area in the snow i.e.
..........................branches, aluminum pie plates, stuff sacks or shelter bags filled with snow and buried: (this
..........................may be referred to as the dead man method). Shelters can also be secured to snow skis or
..........................poles which are stuck into the snow.
ZIPPERS:
If zippers stick, lubricate with silicone. Never force a zipper which has material caught in it, as this will bend the slider and prevent
the zipper from closing. Continual use in a sandy environment can cause the slider to erode and fail to close the zipper.
ST RAGE:
Shelters should be stored dry and loosely folded, away from heat and water. Keep out of reach of mice as they like to nest in shelters.
Never store directly on concrete, as moisture and chemicals in concrete may damage the nylon.
