Quick Overview

The Rothco G.I. Type Cot provides a durable, elevated sleeping platform for use in extended field operations like base camps or disaster relief shelters. Its high clearance creates essential gear storage space underneath, maximizing usable area in tents and temporary barracks.

Field Application Steps

Unfold the main frame and fully extend all three X-frame leg sets on a level surface.
Position yourself at one end and insert the first tensioning end bar into the holes on the frame rails, using leverage to bow the bar into place.
Repeat the process with the second end bar at the opposite end to achieve full tension on the sleep surface.
Conduct a final stability check by pressing down on the cot's center before loading it with gear or personnel.
