6. Maintenance

Proper maintenance will extend the life and appearance of your LECO Tonnelle Milena gazebo.

• Cleaning Frame: Clean the powder-coated steel frame with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the finish.
• Cleaning Textiles: The polyester roof and side panels can be cleaned with a soft brush or cloth and mild soapy water. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and allow to air dry completely before storage. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
• Storage: During prolonged periods of non-use, especially in winter or severe weather, disassemble the gazebo and store all components in a dry, protected area. Ensure textiles are completely dry before folding and storing to prevent mold and mildew.
• Regular Inspection: Periodically check all connections, screws, and anchoring points to ensure they remain tight and secure. Replace any worn or damaged parts immediately.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your gazebo, consider the following common solutions:

• Gazebo Instability: Ensure all frame connections are fully tightened and the gazebo is properly anchored to the ground. Check that the ground surface is level.
• Water Accumulation on Roof: Ensure the roof textile is taut and correctly installed to allow water to run off. Sagging fabric can lead to water pooling.
• Difficulty with Zippers: If zippers are stiff, apply a small amount of silicone spray or zipper lubricant. Ensure fabric is not caught in the zipper teeth.
• Missing Parts: If any parts were missing upon delivery, please contact LECO customer support with your model number and purchase details.
