ABOUT YOUR AIR TENT
TROUBLESHOOTING AIR TENT ISSUES
Inaon issues
• Make sure all of ve quick release valves are properly closed.
• Make sure there are no extreme folds or kinks in the air beams (parcularly the main air beam where the AIR compressor
hose connects to) that could prevent air being transferred to the other air beams. The compressor will be able to
overcome most folds but in some cases you may need to make a minor adjustment to the tent to allow air through more
extreme folds that could be trapping air. If this happens, gently push on the middle air pole from the outside to help it
straighten and allow the pole to inate.
• Make sure all of the isolaon valves are in the OPEN posion otherwise AIR cannot pass between beams.
• Make sure your AIR Compressor hose is securely in the AIR tent inlet valve
• Should you experience issues with your compressor, you can use the included manual pump to inate your tent. This will
take around 5 minutes.
Deaon Issues
• We recommend opening each quick release valve and re-closing it in case you have cross-threaded the valve.
• Ensure you are removing the AIR compressor hose and capping the valve once you are inated.
• If you suspect an AIR leak, use the isolaon valves to close o each air beam so that you can idenfy which leak the beam
is on. Take care not to over-ghten the isolaon valves as this can damage the valve and in itself cause a leak. Remember
to open up the valve again when you need to re-inate your tent.
Should you idenfy a leak in your air beam or valve, please use the following map and contact OPUS HQ for a replacement
beam. For eld repairs, you can use the patch kit included with your OP4. We also recommend keeping the isolaon valves
closed unl the air beam is replaced to help prevent tent collapse. For instrucons on replacing the beam, please see the AIR
beam replacement secon of this user manual under Care & Maintenance.
AIR TENT DESIGN
Your OP4 AIR tent is made of 9 connected AIR beams in the main tent (and 9 beams in the annex if you choose that addion).
The tent is inated by the compressor that is mounted in the cabinet to the right of the door. The hose from the AIR compressor
is threaded up through the cabinetry to the main AIR tent inlet valve. The compressor is acvated by the buon on the
control panel, which also has a breaker switch should this be required. The air compressor is preset to the opmum pressure
of 6.5psi and will automacally shut o when the pressure in the AIR tent reaches this pressure. Occasionally you may wish
to adjust the psi to account for variaons in outside air pressure (caused by altude, temperature and extreme wind). Our
recommendaon is to rst check the suitability of the air poles at the preset pressure. If you then decide you require more or
less pressure in the tubes the psi may be adjusted using the dial located on top of your compressor. Turn the dial to increase
or decrease the pressure as desired, however you must not increase the pressure over 9psi and we recommend returning the
pump back to 6.5 psi for normal camping.
Once your AIR tent is fully inated and the compressor shuts o, please remove the hose from the valve and cap the valve.
This will stop any air leaking out around the compressor hose. Failure to remove the hose and cap the valve may result in
tent deaon.
Each Air Beam is connected to the beams next to it by an AIR transfer hose which has an isolaon valve on each end where
it connects to the AIR beam. Each AIR transfer hose has a spring inside it to protect it from kinks and bends that could
damage the hose or prevent air passing between the beams. We recommend regular inspecon of the AIR transfer hoses
and isolaon valves to ensure they are in good condion. You can nd the AIR Transfer hoses by zipping open the semi-circle
zippers in the roof of your tent. Should you need to close o the valve, the back secon is turnable. There are markings on the
valve to show which direcon to turn for open and close. IMPORTANT! If you close o a valve, please remember to re-open
it before trying to re-inate your tent to ensure air can reach each AIR beam.
The AIR Beams are housed inside
two protecve layers; an inner thick
protecve layer and an outer layer
built into the main tent. You should
aim to keep the AIR beams enclosed
inside the layers unless you suspect
an issue with the air beam. Should you
need to access the AIR beam, ensure
that no part of the AIR beam is caught
in the zip when you close it back up.
