TENT POLE

REPLACEMENT KIT

PARTS LIST:

• Four (4) Hollow Fiberglass Pole

Sections with a metal ferrule

on one end

• One (1) Hollow Fiberglass Pole

Section without a metal ferrule

on one end

• Two (2) Plastic End Tips

• Two (2) Metal End Tips

• Two (2) Metal Ferrules

• One (1) Needle for threading elastic cord (packaged inside the fiber

glass pole section with two plastic end tips on the ends).

• One (1) Elastic Cord

The Coleman

Tent Pole Replacement Kit is designed to replace a whole

fiberglass pole. It is NOT designed to replace a damaged individual pole

section within a fiberglass pole. To replace a damaged individual pole

section within a fiberglass pole, please use the Coleman

Tent Pole

Repair Kit instead.

THINGS YOU WILL NEED:

Super Glue Scissor or Utility knife Tape Measure

Thin, Clear Tape Pen & Paper Hacksaw

INSTRUCTIONS:

REMOVE NEEDLE FROM PACKAGING.

CAUTION: “Needle” may be very sharp. Handle with care to avoid injury.

Keep out of reach of children.

NOTE: The needle for threading elastic cord is packaged inside the fiber-

glass pole section with two plastic end tips on ends. Carefully remove

plastic end tips from the pole sections; then remove the "Needle" stored

inside. Do not discard any of the pole sections or end tips. These pieces

will be reused to safely store the “Needle” for future usage.

TO DETERMINE CORRECT LENGTH OF POLE SECTION & POLE:

1. Lay out the fiberglass pole you want to replace on a level surface in a

straight line to measure and record its total length as well as the total

number of pole sections in the pole. NOTE: The total length of a fiber

glass pole should be measured from one end of the pole to the other

including the metal tips, plastic tips or metal ferrules.

2. Carefully disconnect the elastic cord of the pole that you want to

replace to disassemble it.

3. Set aside equal amount of replacement pole sections. Compare the

length of the pole section from your existing tent pole with that of

the pole section from the Tent Pole Replacement Kit to mark up the

difference. If supplied pole section is too long, cut off excess length

from the end without the metal ferrule, with a hacksaw.

NOTE: To help prevent splintering when cutting the fiberglass pole,

wrap the end of the pole with thin clear tape prior to cutting. Rotate

to score all around pole before cutting through it.

4. After adjusting the length of the replacement pole sections, lay out

the replacement pole sections on a level surface in a straight line.

Connect the pole sections by inserting the fiberglass end of a pole

section into the ferrule end of another pole section. Slide the plastic

tips, metal tips or metal ferrules over the ends of the replacement

pole if applicable. Note: Do not glue the plastic tips, metal tips or

metal ferrules to the pole at this time, as you will still need to install

the elastic cord.

TO DETERMINE CORRECT LENGTH OF ELASTIC CORD:

1. Unfold the elastic cord, tie a double overhand knot

at one end of the elastic cord (Fig. 1), and lay it

next to the replacement pole on a level surface in a

straight line.

2. Mark the location that is approx. 60% of the total

length of the replacement pole on the elastic cord

with a thin piece of tape, measuring from the double overhand knot.

For example, if the total length of the replacement pole is 5 feet, then

60% of 5 feet is 3 feet. You will measure the elastic cord for 3 feet

and mark the location with a thin piece of tape (Fig. 2).

RE-ASSEMBLE FIBERGLASS POLE

1. Attach the other end of the elastic cord to

the eye of the needle. If necessary, wrap

thin clear tape around the joint to secure

elastic cord to needle. (Fig. 3)

2. Remove plastic tips from the replacement

pole (if applicable), thread needle and

elastic cord through each pole section, one at a time, and pull elastic

cord through. Make sure the fiberglass end of each pole section

matches the ferrule end on the next pole section.

3. When all required pole sections have been strung together, tie

another double overhand knot into the elastic cord at the location

that is marked with a piece of thin tape earlier. DO NOT CUT THE

ELASTIC CORD AT THIS TIME. DO NOT TIE THE KNOTS TOO TIGHT

AS YOU MAY NEED TO AJUST THE LOCATION OF THE KNOTS

LATER. (Fig. 4)

4. Test the length of the elastic cord by unfolding and folding the fiber-

glass pole. The shock cord should provide good tension through out

the pole sections without being too tight or too loose. Relocate the

"knot" on the elastic cord to adjust the tension if necessary. Once the

desired length is determined, cut off excess shockcord around the

knots. Slide plastic end tips, metal end tips, or metal ferrules over the

bare ends and secure the joints with super glue if applicable.

5. Measure the total length of the replacement pole to make sure it

matches with that of the pole you want to replace.
