Seasonal Use:

• The fabric roof and mosquito netting must be removed for the winter season or during periods of heavy snow, strong winds, or other severe weather conditions to prevent damage to the fabric and frame.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance will help preserve the appearance and functionality of your gazebo.

• Frame: The powder-coated aluminum steel frame is designed to be low maintenance and resistant to corrosion, rust, and UV rays. Clean the frame periodically with mild soap and water, then rinse thoroughly. Avoid abrasive cleaners or tools that could scratch the finish.
• Fabric Roof and Netting: Clean the nylon fabric roof and mosquito netting with mild soap and water. Ensure they are completely dry before storing them for the winter to prevent mildew.
• Winter Storage: As noted in the operating instructions, the fabric roof and mosquito netting must be removed and stored in a dry, protected area during winter or severe weather.
• Hardware: Periodically check all bolts, screws, and connections to ensure they remain tight. Tighten any loose hardware as needed.

Troubleshooting

This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your Sojag Monteserra Gazebo.

• Loose Connections: If the gazebo feels unstable, check all bolts and screws. Tighten any loose hardware. Refer to the assembly manual for specific connection points.
• Water Accumulation on Roof: Ensure the fabric roof is installed tautly and evenly to allow for proper water runoff. Sagging fabric can lead to water pooling.
• Damaged Fabric: Small tears in the fabric roof or netting can often be repaired with a suitable fabric repair kit. For significant damage, replacement parts may be available. Contact customer support for assistance.
• Missing Parts: If you discover missing parts during assembly, refer to the parts list in your assembly manual and contact Sojag customer support immediately.
