Assembly Instructions

Introduction

Thank you for purchasing the Gazebo GZH3-1212BKA.
When properly assembled and maintained, this gazebo will provide many years of enjoyment!
These instructions include helpful hints and important information needed to safely assemble and properly maintain the gazebo. Please read these instructions completely before you begin.
Our patented gazebo has been designed for easy assembly. All steps can be completed by a team of four people.
Before Starting Assembly:
CAREFULLY READ ALL THE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE YOU BEGIN AND FOLLOW THE STEPS IN THE ORDER THEY ARE PRESENTED.

1. Make sure you have all the necessary parts:
   Compare the contents of all cartons to the List of Parts. If ung;orts are missing or damaged, or you have any questions, please contact Customer service: (877)782 4482 before beginning assembly.

2. lay the chs out in separate staging areas:
   The List of Parts has the corresponding step number referenced to each part. We recommend that while you go through the list, make staging areas for each step and place the parts necessary for each step in these areas. This will save you time and effort during assembly.

3. Select a Location:
   When selecting a location for your gazebo, a flat level area is essential and if possible with proper water drainage and easy access fo power and water, if neccessary.
   Choose a sunny, level position away from overhanging trees and power lines and protected from the VI:ind as nb1uch as possiE|e. Locate underground pipes or cables before preparing the site or anchoring the gazebo.
   Noig: You may assemble the gazebo on a hard level surface and move it fo its final location when finished. Make sure that there are no obstacles between the assembly area and the final position.

4.  Prepare a Foundation:
   After choosing a location, proper preparation of the site is recommended. The site must be level.
   If the site is not level, create a base slightly larger than the outside dimensions of the gazebo using a perimeter of two by fours filled with either soil, sod or gravel.
   Make sure the base is square by measuring the diagonals from both directions and making sure they are equal. The gazebo is secured with pegs into holes cast with concrete.
   If you decide to have a concrete base, it is best to contact a reliable contractor to make sure it is flat and level. Make sure you have checked with your local authorities regarding any required building permits.

5. Make sure you have the proper tools:
   • Tape Measure
   • Work Gloves
   • Safety goggles
   • Phillips Screwdriver
   • Spirit Level
   • 3/8″ masonry drill bit to drill holes for the concrete anchors supplied.
   • 2 Small Step Ladders
   • Wooden Mallet
   • Scissors and knife
   • Liquid soap or WD40 Lubricant
   • Hex Key

NOTE: A cordless drill with Phillips head bit is highly recommended but not essential.
Safety Advice

Components ATTENTION: The corner profile (1) has two screw holes to connect it to the corner roof connector (4) and 8 pre-drilled screw holes to attach rails (5,6) in step 3 at its fop end.
It has two screw holes to connect it to the support plate (3) at its bottom end. 1. A Place corner profiles (1) parallel to each other on the ground.
Attach one Corner roof connector (4) to each top end as shown and fasten with screws (30). 1. B Slide support frames (2) over lower end of corner Erofiles( 1).
Attach support plates (3) o corner profiles (1) as shown, using two screws(30) for each plate, make sure all screws are perpendicularly info the profile holes. Leave sufipon frames (2) about 10″ over lower end of corner profiles (1) until step 4. (Secure the gazebo to ground)

STEP 2 Assembling the Rails

2.A Insert rail connector (51) info blunt end of the rail (5) secured with screws (28).
Insert long rail (5,51) into blunt end of the rail (6) secured with screws (28) as shown.
Repeat to create four sets (5+6). 2.B Attach three outer roof connectors (10) and three inner roof connectors (9) to each rail set (5,6) at pre-drilled screw holes, using screws (29). ATTENTION: Attach roof connectors facing exactly in the directions shown.

STEP 3 Attaching the Rails to the Corner Profiles

3.C Using at least 3 people, attach the remaining two roof profile sefs (5+6) to corner profiles (1), connecting all four corner profiles (1).
