Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the bivvy, clear a flat area and lay out the base. The integrated aluminium frame is designed to expand easily; ensure all joints are locked into place before securing the bivvy to the ground with the provided pegs. For optimal protection, ensure the front peak is correctly tensioned.
Compatibility is a strong point for the XF2; it integrates seamlessly with official RidgeMonkey accessories like the XF2 Porch Extension. Regarding care, always allow the bivvy to air dry completely after a wet session before packing it into the storage bag. If the fabric becomes dirty, wipe it down with a damp cloth and mild, non-detergent soap. Avoid using heavy chemicals or high-pressure washers, which can degrade the waterproof coating.
