Product Usage Instructions

Set-Up Guide

Take the Culla Hammock Wrap out of the bag.
Find the bungee ends on both sides of the Culla Hammock Wrap and feed one hand through them.
Grab the hammock end with the hand in the Culla Hammock Wrap. Unclip one side of your hammock temporarily.
Pull the hammock through the Culla Hammock Wrap and attach it to the tree strap or hammock stand hook.
Attach the Culla Hammock Wrap’s carabiner to the same fixing point as the hammock. Ensure the hammock is not resting on the hammock culla body when occupied.
Slide the Culla Hammock Wrap over the hammock and attach the carabiner to the fixed point at the other end of the hammock.
Assemble spreader poles and insert them through the sleeves on both sides of the doors. Attach click-in ridgelines and create tension in the middle of the Wrap.

Door Tie Backs

Using loops and toggles, feed the toggle through the loop provided between the outer door and the mesh. The mesh toggle can be fed through the same loop to keep the door fully open.

Door Vent

Use the toggles provided on the outer doors and feed them through the loop at the halfway point of the doors to create a vent when closing zippers.

Window Vents

Zip open your window flap and roll. Use tie-backs and toggles to open the vent fully. Close these vents to regulate temperature, but always keep constant airflow.

Guy Lines

Tie guylines to loops on each corner for windy days. Adjust tension using sliders after securely staking the Wrap.

CULLA HAMMOCK WRAP SET UP GUIDE

Take the Culla Hammock Wrap out of the bag.
Find the bungee ends on both sides of the Culla Hammock Wrap and feed one hand through them.
Grab the hammock end with the hand in the Culla Hammock Wrap. You will need to temporarily unclip one side of your hammock.
Pull the hammock through the Culla Hammock Wrap and attach it to the tree strap or hammock stand hook.
Attach the Culla Hammock Wrap’s carabiner to the same fixing point as the hammock.
- Tip: always ensure that the hammock is not resting on the hammock culla body when an occupant is inside. The Culla is not designed to bear weight.
Slide the Culla Hammock Wrap over the hammock and attach the carabiner to the fixed point at the other end of the hammock.
Assemble your spreader poles, and slide them through the sleeves on either side of the doors at both sides of the Culla Hammock Wrap. Insert ends into grommets and repeat on both sides.
Unravel the click-in ridgelines. Attach grey clips at both ends to the poles in the provided space between the pole sleeves at the top of the Wrap.
- Using the triangle rope tensioner around a tree, or wrap around your stand, create tension in the middle of the Culla Hammock Wrap.
- Always ensure that the Culla Hammock Wrap’s clip-in ridgelines are tightly secured so that it is completely clear of the hammock and the occupant.
- Tip: if using a hammock stand, put as much tension as possible onto the ridgelines as the hammock stand will shorten with body weight causing the Culla Hammock Wrap to sink.

Door Tie Backs

Using loops and toggles, feed the toggle through the loop provided between the outer door and the mesh. The mesh toggle can be fed through the same loop to keep the door fully open.

Door Vent

Use the toggles provided on the outer doors and feed them through the loop provided at the halfway point of the doors. This will create a vent at the door once you close the vertical and horizontal zippers.

Window Vents

Zip open your window flap and roll. Use the tie-backs and toggles to open the vent fully. If you want to regulate the temperature, you can close these vents, but it is recommended that you always brace out these windows to keep constant airflow.
Never block and/or obstruct the ‘always open’ vent.

Guy Lines

Guylines are provided for windy days. Simply tie these guylines to the loops on each of the four corners. Use the slider on each guyline to adjust the tension needed after securely staking the Wrap.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS

DO NOT LEAVE YOUR TENT SET UP IN DIRECT SUNLIGHT LONGER THAN NECESSARY. THE SUN’S ULTRAVIOLET (UV) LIGHT DEGRADES ALMOST EVERY FABRIC AND MATERIAL.
IF LEFT IN SUNLIGHT FOR PROLONGED PERIODS, FABRIC WILL FADE AND WEAKEN. DO NOT STORE THE TENT ON CONCRETE FLOOR.
DO NOT SPRAY THE TENT WITH INSECTICIDE. EXERCISE CARE WHEN USING ELECTRIC DEVICES IN AND NEAR TENTS.
Although our tents are constructed to rigid specifications, periods of wind or rain soaking the ground may loosen the stakes and cause the uprights to sink into the ground. This will weaken the rigidity of the overall structure.
Water pockets may also form in the roof if the unit is not assembled taut, possibly causing broken frames and torn fabric. Regularly check that your tent is anchored safely and securely.
Ensure that the tent is fully dry when packing away. If this is not possible when leaving the campsite, take the tent out of its bag as soon as possible and allow it to dry.
Never store a tent when wet, as this can seriously degrade the product.

GENERAL PRECAUTIONS

FIRE, VENTILATION & GENERAL PRECAUTIONS FOR YOUR SAFETY

Do not use gas or other combustion appliances anywhere in, or near your tent.
Do not place hot appliances near the walls, roof, or curtains.
Always observe the safety instructions for these appliances.
Never allow children to play near hot appliances.
Make sure all ventilation openings on inner and outer tents as well as any Reflective Flysheets are open all the time to avoid possible suffocation.

CAUTION Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in property damage or injury.

FLAMMABILITY

Keep all flame and heat sources away from this tent fabric. Any tent, even ones treated with flame-resistant chemicals, is not fireproof.
The fabric will burn if left in continuous contact with any flame source and could result in serious injury, permanent disability, or death to you or to others.

THIS TENT IS NOT FIREPROOF, for these reasons:

DO NOT spray the tent with insecticide.
DO NOT use other than Crua Outdoors ® recommended water-repellent compounds on your tent.
DO NOT use matches, lighters, stoves, heaters, grills, lanterns, candles, cooking equipment, or any other fuel-burning devices, in or near the tent.
DO NOT build fires in or near a tent.
DO NOT leave campfires unattended.

hammocks, hammock tents, hanging chairs & stands

Please read all safety and set-up instructions before using any hammock, hammock tent, hanging chairs, or stands and adhere to the weight restrictions of the products.
Ensure all tree straps are correctly and securely placed on the tree and the carabiners are correctly secured to the tree straps before entering the hammock, hammock tent, or hanging chair.
Never hang your hammock, hammock tent, or hanging chair higher than 18” (45cm) hanging height and ensure that the area under the hammock, hammock tent, or hanging chair is clear of rocks and debris in the event of a fall.
Hammocks, hammock tents, hanging chairs, and stands are meant for sitting/laying. Please do not jump or swing aggressively.

NOTES:

The Culla Hammock Wrap is NOT a load-bearing device. This is an outer shell for a hammock.
The Culla Hammock Wrap is NOT waterproof. We would always recommend using this product with an accompanying tarp.
Should the Culla Hammock Wrap get wet for any reason, ensure that it is dried out before placing it in the bag. If this is not possible, take it out of the bag as soon as possible, allow it to dry, then place it back in.
Do not over-compress the bag while it is in storage. We recommend loosening the compression straps and opening the top cinch during this storage.
Ventilation openings must be braced open and clear of obstruction at all times.
When packing away the Culla Hammock Wrap, fold the product over one-third and then fold this section in half. Now, roll the product up and place it in its bag.

CARBON MONOXIDE GAS WILL KILL YOU

Stoves, heaters, grills, lanterns, candles, and any other fuel-burning devices that burn propane, natural gas, charcoal, kerosene, coal, or other fuel, produce a toxic gas called Carbon Monoxide. Carbon Monoxide is an invisible, odorless, and colorless gas.
A dangerous level can accumulate in a tent that cannot be detected by sight, smell, or taste. When breathed in, even in small quantities, Carbon Monoxide is absorbed into the bloodstream, replacing, and reducing the oxygen in the bloodstream and causing
Carbon Monoxide poisoning and suffocation will cause serious injury, permanent disability, or death to you or others.

For these reasons:

DO NOT use matches, lighters, stoves, heaters, grills, lanterns, candles, cooking equipment, or any other fuel-burning devices, in or near the tent.
DO NOT build fires in or near a tent.
DO exercise care when using electricity and lighting in and near your tent

SEVERE WEATHER

In some climatic conditions (for example, severe storms, high winds, heavy snow) stakes and guy lines may not be sufficient to anchor a tent securely, which could result in the tent being picked up or blown away, which could cause serious injury, permanent disability, or death to you or others.

Under such conditions:

DO use supplemental means to anchor the tent.
DO seek appropriate shelter, for example, in a house, cabin building, or a secure structure other than a tent.

SUFFOCATION HAZARD

Any tent must be properly ventilated in all weather conditions to allow sufficient airflow into and out of the tent. If airflow into and out of the tent is obstructed (for example, heavy snow or bedding/pillows covering vents) you and other persons will suffer from a lack of oxygen and suffocate resulting in serious injury, permanent disability, or death to you or others.

For these reasons:

DO clear snow or other materials away from any external vents frequently.
DO ensure that bedding, pillows, backpacks, etc. are kept away from any internal vents.
DO NOT use matches, lighters, stoves, heaters, grills, lanterns, candles, cooking equipment, or any other fuel-burning devices, in or near the tent. (SEE CARBON MONOXIDE WARNING).

PROTECT YOUR CHILDREN

DO NOT leave children unattended inside or around a tent.
DO NOT allow children to set-up or take down a tent.
DO NOT allow children to enter or exit a tent except through the door.
DO NOT allow children to remain in a closed-up tent on hot days.
DO NOT allow children to play with any plastic bags or other packaging material as there is a risk of suffocation.
Your failure to follow this warning will cause death, serious injury, or permanent disability to your children.

FOR YOUR SAFETY

Before using this product, read and fully understand:

Attached Warning Labels.
This instruction manual and all accompanying documentation.

KEEP ALL EXITS CLEAR

VENTILATION

Any tent must be properly ventilated in all weather conditions to allow sufficient airflow into and out of the tent. Please familiarize yourself with all vents and openings in your tent to ensure you can maintain adequate ventilation.
There are three main reasons we promote ventilation within a tent, in the same way we would in any dwelling like a house or apartment. These are Airflow, Air Quality, and Condensation Reduction.
AIRFLOW: Without airflow or fresh air into the tent, your environment will become stale and stuffy. It is important to promote good-quality airflow throughout the tent.
AIR QUALITY: A buildup of any harmful gasses (carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, and others) is possible in an enclosed space. For this reason, you must always have adequate ventilation in your tent to ensure a good flow of air from outside.
CONDENSATION REDUCTION: Leaving the vents open, supplemented by partially opening windows and doors at night to provide cross ventilation is a good way to reduce condensation.
Given the importance of proper ventilation, for airflow, air quality, and condensation reduction, we use high and low venting in most of our tents. This allows cooler air in through the low vents and warmer, moist air up and out through the high vents.
Opening both the high and low vents is important as this allows for this cross-ventilation. If your tent has vents in the porch/vestibule, then it is important to also keep those vents open.
Failure to vent your tent properly may result in serious injury, permanent disability, or death to you or others.

general precautions

Make sure you know the fire precaution arrangements on the site. Consider the possibility of falling rocks or tree limbs, lightning, flash floods, avalanches, strong winds, and other potential hazards.
Make sure you anchor your tent at all times.
Please be mindful of guylines, bathtub floors, straps, and other parts of tents as they can be a potential trip hazard.
