Setup:
1.
Tie the two suspension straps at the
head end of the Tarseer to two trees or
similar secure points. (see figure 1.)
Alternatively you can use a single tree
that is at least your shoulder width thick
or a spreader and the 2-point attachment straps.(see figure 2.)
2.
Tie the strap at the foot end around
a tree slightly higher than you tied
the head end. The further the foot tree
is, the higher you have to tie the strap

attachment points and

3.Hop in and enjoy, sweet dreams!
(see figure 3.)
You should try to set up the Tarseer so
that the head end is as close to the suspension points as possible and because
of its unique structure, you should
fasten the Tarseer between the
trees as tightly as possible.

General usage tips:
Use the two-way zipper to avoid sweating on warmer nights.
To maximize your warmth on cold
nights, close the collar buttons and pull
the hood tight over your face only exposing your mouth and nose for respiration.
We recommend that you use pull knots
to tie the Tarseer for quick and easy
operation. Always make sure your knots
are properly made and can hold your
weight before hopping in the Tarseer.
Two-point attachment:
We recommend the knot described
below for the installation of a spreader
bar. You can use any long enough object
as a spreader bar. Most likely this will
be a fallen branch.
Recommended knot:

Additionally, you can take following precautions to make sure
you stay warm:
The easiest way to climb in to the
Tarseer is to stand in the triangle,
formed at the foot end of the bag by
the attachment ropes, with your back
facing the Tarseer and with the Tarseer
pulled up slightly towards the head end.
Then you just lift yourself up and sit in
the Tarseer.
2.
Don’t wear any(!) damp clothing.
Eat a good hot meal before going to
bed.Make sure you’re not dehydrated
when going to bed. Set your camp in a
location sheltered from the wind
(behind cliffs, rocks or in dense forest.)

1. Rope coming from the Tarseer
2. Loop going around a tree
1. Make as many loops around your
chosen spreader bar as the rope allows
2. Do not use the spreader clasps to
attach the Tarseer, only the spreader
Packing:
We recommend that you do not use a
compression bag with the Tarseer since
too much compression can cause the
premium quality down to compact and
lose some of its insulating properties.
As a tip, we also recommend that you
try to use the Tarseer without any protective bags since without any enclosures it takes the least amount of space
in your backpack and you don’t have to
carry any extra weight with you.
Care instructions:
Should the Tarseer get dirty, you should
try to brush the dirt off and avoid washing. Washing the Tarseer may adversely
affect the insulating properties of the
premium quality down.
However, if washing the Tarseer is necessary, use 40°C water without detergent and do not tumble dry.
Do not store the Tarseer in its protective
bag. Long periods of compressed storage may cause the down to compact.
CAUTION:
Never set up the Tarseer over 80 cm high from the ground
or above such surfaces that falling on them might cause
you harm.
The Tarseer is not a climbing accessory and may not be
used in any circumstances as one.
User manual
To pack the Tarseer more easily to its
protective bag, you should make sure to
compress it tightly to the bottom of the
bag right from the beginning.
