Always check local regulations for installation permits before starting.

Safety Warnings

• Adults Only: Assembly and maintenance must be performed by adults. We recommend at least 4 people.
• Installation Surface: Install on level ground. Do not assemble on sandy, muddy, or loose soil as stakes will not provide sufficient anchorage.
• Weather Conditions: This gazebo is for decorative and sunshade purposes only. It is not designed to withstand high winds, heavy rain, or snow. Remove the canopy in winter or during high winds.
• Snow Removal: Clear snow from the roof if it exceeds 2 inches to avoid damage. Use a plastic snow rake.
• Fire Safety: Do not light fires under or near the product.
• Sharp Edges: Some parts may have sharp edges; wear protective gloves.

Assembly Steps

The assembly process consists of 20 steps, involving the construction of the frame, installation of the roof structure, and attachment of the canopy and netting.

1. Frame Construction: Assemble the posts (A1-A6) and base covers (B1-B2, C1-C2).
2. Beam Assembly: Connect cross beams (D1-D4) and short cross beams (E1-E2).
