Hi everyone,

I hope you can help a newbie like myself.

I have borrowed a Easy Camp Cosenza 500 tent of a friend for my first camping trip this weekend but unfortunately it does not have any pitching instructions.

I have done some google (other search engines are available ) searches and have come up with not a lot.
I have looked on easy camps youtube web site but the corsenza is not on the list

Do any of you wise people have a link to some instructions be they electronic or video based or have some instructions from your own cosenza 500 tent that we could arrange to emailed to me?

A big ask from a newbie but I hope you can help me out.

Many thanks in advance

Dustie

Hi, I have the Cosenza 600, and I would imagine it is similar to pitch.
It pitches inner tent first. So you need to lay the inner tent out on the ground, and feed the colour coded poles thru the correct slots in the inner tent. The poles should then locate with a ring and pin system, at points on the inner tent/groundsheet. Once all these are in place and pegged in, you then slide the Fly sheet over,(making sure it is on the right way around) it will probably have some locating velcro strips on the underside, which will then attach to the poles at visible points in the slots of the inner tent.

Then you peg the Flysheet down, and the secure the guy ropes into position.

I hope this helps.

The Cozenza 600 is almost identical the the early Outwell Hartford tents, Or indeed the Vango Diablo, so it may be worth looking at a pitching video for either of those, it will certainly give you an idea.

Good luck.
