Ensure the extension is correctly aligned with the front of the EXO bivvy and that all connection points are secured as per the setup instructions. Check for any obstructions.
Water pooling inside the extension during heavy rain.
Verify that storm straps are taut and properly anchored to provide sufficient tension. Ensure the groundsheet is correctly positioned and sealed.
Zippers are stiff or difficult to operate.
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and apply a silicone-based lubricant designed for outdoor gear. Avoid forcing the zipper.
