3. Setup Instructions

Assembly of the AMERICAN PHOENIX Party Tent requires careful attention to detail and typically involves multiple people due to its size. Ensure all parts are present before beginning assembly. It is recommended to lay out all components and identify them according to the parts list (not provided in this document, refer to your packaging).

3.1. Prepare the Site

• Choose a flat, level area free from overhead obstructions and sharp objects on the ground.
• Ensure adequate space for the tent's dimensions (16x26 ft) plus additional clearance for anchoring.
• Clear the area of any debris or potential hazards.

3.2. Assemble the Frame

Begin by connecting the galvanized steel tubes to form the base and roof structure. Pay close attention to the different lengths and types of poles and connectors. It is advisable to have at least 2-3 people for this stage to manage the larger sections.

2. Attach the vertical support poles to the base frame.
3. Construct the roof truss sections on the ground, then carefully lift and attach them to the vertical support poles.
