Do not fully tighten screws until the entire assembly is complete to ensure proper alignment.

Assembly Overview

- Squaring the Frame: A critical step (Step 6) where you must measure diagonals (d1 and d2) to ensure the frame is square. If they are not equal, loosen the screws on the beams and adjust until the frame is square and the posts are at right angles to the ground.
- Roof Structure: Installing the roof support beams and panels.
- Finalization: Securing all panels and hardware.
