<strong>Armo</strong><br />

<strong>Tempest</strong> <strong>Wrap</strong><br />

<strong>Instructions</strong><br />

Please read these instructions<br />

carefully before using your<br />

<strong>Tempest</strong> <strong>Wrap</strong> for the first time.


<strong>Instructions</strong><br />

Erect your <strong>Tempest</strong> Bivvy in<br />

the normal manner, unfold<br />

your wrap and assemble<br />

the three section pole,<br />

ensuring that all the spigots<br />

are fully inserted.<br />

Cover the <strong>Tempest</strong> with the<br />

winter wrap, starting by pulling<br />

the back of the wrap over the<br />

front of the bivvy. (Fig. 1)<br />

Pull the elastics over the three<br />

rear central pegs (Fig. 2) and<br />

then come to the front and<br />

peg the front two pegs, either<br />

side of the door in to position.<br />

It helps if the door is in a<br />

closed position while you<br />

peg these points out. (Fig 3).<br />

Now peg down the base<br />

plates at the ends of the pole,<br />

so as to tension the fabric.<br />

Once this has been done, you<br />

can peg out the rest of the<br />

winter wrap.<br />

If the wrap does not look fully<br />

tensioned, you can readjust<br />

any of the peg points. Also<br />

check that all the spigots in<br />

the poles are inserted fully<br />

and that the pole is not<br />

twisted, re-adjust if necessary.<br />

Please note: Condensation<br />

will form in the single skin<br />

porch area or if the two skins<br />

are allowed to touch.


Storage<br />

Storage is one of the most<br />

important aspects of bivvy care.<br />

Your wrap should be packed<br />

away dry. If packed away wet, it<br />

should be dried within 24-hours<br />

of returning from your session.<br />

If the wrap is left wet, mildew<br />

will form, which can severely<br />

damage the material and tape<br />

seals. It is worth checking your<br />

wrap frequently for signs of wear<br />

and tear, which may require<br />

attention.<br />

Remember: Store your wrap in a<br />

cool dry place away from sources<br />

of heat. The carry bag should be<br />

left unzipped if stored for<br />

extended periods.<br />

Reproof with Fabsil Gold at<br />

least once annually (available<br />

from the <strong>Trakker</strong> website: www.<br />

trakkerproducts.co.uk). Cleaning<br />

and reproofing your wrap will<br />

strengthen the fabric and improve<br />

its ability to repel water.<br />

Cleaning<br />

Never use detergents on your<br />

wrap and instead use warm water<br />

and then dry thoroughly in the<br />

shade.<br />

– Do not use detergents to clean<br />

as they may harm the proofing.<br />

– Never machine wash or<br />

tumble dry.<br />

– Avoid contact with abrasive<br />

scrubbing agents/cloths.<br />

– Avoid contact with fuel, oil<br />

and chemicals. Your warranty<br />

does not cover contact with<br />

the aforementioned agents/<br />

chemicals.<br />

Zips<br />

<strong>Trakker</strong> endeavour to use the<br />

best zips available to ensure<br />

optimum performance. Zip<br />

performance can be hindered<br />

by mud or dirt. If you encounter<br />

a problem, do not force the zip<br />

as you risk damaging the teeth.<br />

Clean with soapy water and then<br />

rinse thoroughly. It is worthwhile<br />

periodically spraying your zippers<br />

with a purpose designed silicone<br />

zipper spray.<br />
