Learn how to install the Stång Absid 7 and 9 awning pole for your Tentipi tipi. Step-by-step setup, common mistakes, and tips for a secure fit.
Quick Answer
Install the Stång Absid 7 or 9 pole by first securing the base, then raising the pole to the awning attachment point, and finally tensioning the fabric. Follow the steps below to avoid common mistakes.
Why the Stång Absid pole matters
The Stång Absid pole is designed specifically for the awnings on Tentipi tipis in sizes 7 and 9. Its advanced construction balances high strength with low weight, making it easier to handle during setup without compromising stability.
Using the correct pole ensures your awning stays taut and secure, even in windy conditions. A mismatched or improvised pole can lead to sagging fabric, reduced weather protection, and unnecessary strain on the awning attachment points.
Before you start
Check that you have all components: the Stång Absid pole, the awning fabric, and the attachment points on your tipi. Confirm the pole size matches your awning (size 7 or 9).
If you are replacing an existing pole, note that the Stång Absid is a spare part for the awning; it is not a center pole. Do not confuse it with the main tent pole.
Installation steps for Stång Absid 7 and 9
- Prepare the awning and pole: Lay the awning flat on the ground near the tipi. Unfold the Stång Absid pole and check that all sections are fully extended and locked into place. Check that the pole sections are firmly locked before proceeding.
- Attach the pole base: Insert the base of the pole into the dedicated grommet or pocket at the bottom edge of the awning. Make sure it sits securely and is oriented correctly. A loose base will cause the pole to shift during setup.
- Raise the pole to the awning peak: Lift the pole upward, guiding the top end toward the awning's peak attachment point. Ensure the pole follows the seam line of the awning for even tension. Keep the pole aligned with the seam to avoid twisting the fabric.
- Secure the top attachment: Connect the top of the pole to the awning's peak loop or clip. Verify that the connection is snug and that the pole is fully seated. A loose top connection can cause the awning to sag.
- Tension the awning: Adjust the pole's angle and length (if adjustable) to create a taut, wrinkle-free surface. Stake down the awning's corners to lock in the tension. The fabric should be smooth; wrinkles indicate uneven tension.
- Test stability: Gently push on the awning from different angles to check for movement. If the pole shifts, re-tighten the connections and adjust the stakes. A stable setup will not wobble or sag under light pressure.
