You may use Part F to help secure the gazebo to fi rm, compacted, earth. Drive the stakes all the way into the ground at opposing angles (see fi g. 9) through pre-drilled holes in each corner panel.

NOTE: the spikes are not intended to permanently mount the gazebo to any surface nor are they meant for use in soft earth. If your gazebo is located on a wood or concrete patio, please visit your local hardware store for an appropriate solution.

Step 9

Step 10

You may tighten all bolts and nuts in the gazebo frame at this time. Tighten just enough so that the parts are no longer loose. Caution! Do not overtighten as this may bend or damage the steel frame. Plastic end caps are also provided to protect the nuts at each con-nection. You may attach those at this time.

Carefully pull the canvas top over the gazebo roof frame and slide the vent bars into each respective vent opening in the canvas. The fi t will be very snug. You may need to reposition the gazebo legs slightly in order to pull the canvas top into position. Use the velcro straps to secure the canvas top to the gazebo frame.

If you purchased a bug screen, you may attach it now using the velcro straps provided.

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questi ons)

Q: Will the gazebo frame ever rust?

A: The powder coated fi nish of the metal frame prevents rusti ng so long as the metal itself is not exposed. Exposure of the metal may occur due to accidental scratches or long-term wear and tear. Occasional touch ups to aff ected areas with weatherproof paint will ensure many years of conti nued enjoyment from your gazebo.

Q: Can I use grills or barbecues inside the gazebo?

A: No, we do not recommend this. While the canopy top is fabricated using a fi re resistant material, our gazebos are not designed to accomodate an open fl ame. Please refrain from using your grill inside the gazebo.

Q: Will the gazebo move or blow away in strong winds?

A: Several features of our design were considered to allow the gazebo to remain very stable across a range of weather conditi ons. The four vents in the canopy top help to allow low to medium winds to pass through the covering.

However, if you install the gazebo in an area where strong winds are persistent, it is advisable to take further steps to fasten the gazebo to the ground. If the gazebo is installed over a soft natural surface (grass or dirt), you may drive metal stakes (included) through the holes located at the bott om of the panels and into the ground. If the gazebo is installed over a hard surface (wooden decks or concrete pati os) it will be necessary to separately purchase screws or bolts and nuts to affi x the frame to your installati on surface. Please visit your local Mills Fleet Farm Store for more opti ons.

Q: I like being outdoors, but cannot stay for long because of mosquitoes. Are bug screens available for my gazebo?

A: Yes! Bug screens for all gazebo models are available separately for purchase as an accessory.

Care Instructions:Canvas Top

The polyester top (Canvas Top) can be machine washed using a small amount of detergent. Do not machine dry or use bleach for the Top. Top may also be spray-rinsed while attached to Gazebo and lightly scrubbed with a soft broom. DO NOT use any hard abrasives to scrub.

The canvas top is not waterproof. However, a waterproofi ng spray (not included) may be used to prevent rain water infi ltration.

The canvas top MUST be removed and stored in a dry location in the event of snow fall. Accumulated snow WILL severely damage your gazebo if the canvas top is not removed.

Gazebo Frame

Any rust on the frame as a result of scratches on the surface can be cleaned with soap and water and wiped down with a soft cloth. DO NOT use any hard abrasives to scrub. Touch-up paint is not available but the colors can be matched at your local Mills Fleet Farm store.

All metal parts may be sprayed with a clear laquer fi nish to maintain the attractiveness of your gazebo over time and allow you to enjoy your gazebo for as long as possible.

IMPORTANT: Winter storage - If you live in an area that experiences snow in the winter, remove the canvas top and store it in a location that is dry and free of moisture.
