Overview

The Coleman ARA™ 9' x 7' Model 9277-907 is a camping tent designed for outdoor use, offering shelter and a comfortable space for campers. Its primary function is to provide a temporary, portable dwelling that protects occupants from the elements.

Technical Specifications:

  • Model Number: 9277-907
  • Dimensions: 9 feet by 7 feet
  • Main Poles: 2 (Part Number: 9277-1091) - These are longer, black, shock-corded poles forming the primary structural support of the tent.
  • Front/Awning Pole: 2 (Part Number: 9277-1101) - These are gray, shock-corded poles used for the front awning and additional structural support.
  • Rainfly: 1 (Part Number: 9277-1121) - A separate fabric cover designed to provide additional weather protection, especially against rain.
  • Flammability: Meets CPAI-84 flammability requirements. Users are warned to keep all flame and heat sources away from the tent fabric, as it may burn if left in continuous contact with a flame source. The application of foreign substances to the fabric may render its flame-resistant properties ineffective.

Usage Features:

Setup:

The tent requires at least two people for assembly.

  1. Site Selection: Choose a level campsite clear of rocks, branches, or other sharp objects. Avoid setting up under trees and keep clear of overhead power lines. For windy conditions, position the end of the tent into the wind.
  2. Tent Layout: Unfold the tent on a clean, level surface with the door facing the desired direction. Unzip the door.
  3. Main Pole Assembly: Assemble the two main (black, shock-corded) poles by interlocking their sections.
  4. Main Pole Insertion: Insert these black poles through the sleeves in the top of the tent, forming an "X" shape (Fig. 1).
  5. Rear Corner Attachment: Insert one end of each black pole into the pins located in the rear corners of the tent (Fig. 2).
  6. Arch Formation (Main Poles): Go to the opposite end of each main pole and gradually apply pressure to form an arch. Insert the pole end into the pin at the tent corners (Fig. 3).
  7. Staking: Stretch the tent corners until the floor is taut, then hammer stakes through the loops to secure the tent.
  8. Frame Clips: Attach the frame clips along the edges of the tent to the main frame poles (Fig. 4).
  9. Front Pole Assembly: Assemble the interlocking, shock-corded, gray pole (Fig. 5).
  10. Front Pole Insertion: Slide this gray pole through the sleeve on the front of the tent.
  11. Front Pole Attachment: Pull down on the pole and insert it into the center pin location on the side of the tent (Fig. 6).
  12. Arch Formation (Front Pole): Go to the opposite side of the tent and gradually apply pressure to the pole to form an arch. Insert the pin into the pole.
  13. Frame Clips (Front): Attach the remaining frame clips along the edges of the tent to the front frame poles (Fig. 7).

Rainfly Attachment:

The rainfly provides an extra layer of protection against rain and sun.

  1. Rainfly Pole Assembly: Assemble the remaining interlocking shock-corded gray rainfly pole.
  2. Draping: Drape the rainfly over the tent, ensuring the end with two flaps is centered over the door.
  3. Rainfly Pole Insertion: Slide the gray pole through the sleeve in the rainfly (Fig. 8).
  4. Rainfly Pole Attachment: Insert one end of the rainfly pole into the remaining pin in the front corner of the tent. Gradually apply pressure to the other end of the pole to form an arch and insert it into the other front pin (Fig. 9).
  5. Corner Clips: Hook the clips on the elastic loops of the rainfly onto the rings on all four corners of the tent (Fig. 10).
  6. Internal Ties: Secure the rainfly with Velcro hook & loop ties located on the underside of the fly (Fig. 11 & 12).
  7. Front Flaps: Extend the front flaps on the rainfly and secure them with stakes (Fig. 13). These flaps can be rolled back and secured by inserting toggles through fabric loops (Fig. 14).
  8. Guylines: Attach guylines to the web straps on the rainfly and stake them out.

Ventilation and Access Features:

  • Door Vent: To use the door vent, undo the other zipper to expose the vent, then roll up the door flap and fasten it with a toggle and fabric loop (Fig. 15).
  • Window Vents: For more ventilation, unzip the back and side window vents, then roll them up and insert toggles through fabric loops (Fig. 16).
  • Cooler Access: A smaller zippered opening at the rear of the tent serves as both added ventilation and easy access to a beverage cooler.
    • As a vent: Unzip the flap to expose the screen (Fig. 17).
    • As cooler access: Unzip the other flap to create an avenue to bring beverages into the tent (Fig. 18).
  • Electrical Cord Access: An access panel in the lower right corner of the tent allows for bringing in an electrical cord. Only UL-approved cords rated for outdoor usage should be used (Fig. 19).

Maintenance Features:

Storage:

Proper storage is crucial for extending the life of the tent.

  1. Pole and Stake Storage: All metal poles and stakes must be placed in their designated storage bag to prevent damage to the fabric items in the carry case.
  2. Cleanliness and Dryness: Ensure the tent is clean and completely dry before placing it in the carry case.
  3. Disassembly: Remove the rainfly, spread it out on the floor of the tent, then unzip the door and vents before taking the tent down for storage.
  4. Folding: Neatly fold the tent to the width of the pole storage bag, place the bag on the tent, roll tightly, and then place the entire assembly in the carry case.
  5. Storage Location: Store the tent in a clean, dry area.

Important Considerations ("Things You Should Know"):

  • Condensation: Condensation can form inside the tent under certain conditions (cold weather, high humidity) due to water vapor from breath, perspiration, or wet clothing. This is not leakage through the fabric and can be minimized by removing wet clothing and providing good ventilation.
  • Drying Before Storage: Never store the tent, even for a short period, without thoroughly drying it and brushing off caked dirt.
  • Separate Storage: Do not pack stakes or poles inside the tent itself; use a separate storage bag for them.
  • Stake Removal: Stakes should be removed by pulling on the stake itself, never by pulling on the tent fabric.
  • Pole Storage: Tent poles should NOT be left telescoped together during storage.
  • UV Exposure: Do not leave the tent set up for weeks at a time. Prolonged exposure to ultraviolet rays from the sun can seriously damage the material and cause it to become discolored.
