4. Assembly Instructions
Assembly typically requires two people. Lay out all parts on a soft, clean surface to prevent scratches.
- Unpack Components: Carefully remove all parts from the packaging. Check against the package contents list.
- Attach Legs to Tabletop: Place the tabletop (or tabletop sections) upside down on a protected surface. Align the table legs with the pre-drilled holes on the underside of the tabletop. Secure them using the provided bolts and washers. Do not fully tighten bolts at this stage.
- Install Support Braces: Connect the support braces between the legs as indicated in the diagrams. Use the appropriate hardware and hand-tighten.
- Align and Tighten: Once all components are loosely assembled, gently flip the table upright. Place it on a level surface. Apply even pressure to ensure the table is stable and level, then fully tighten all bolts with the Allen wrench.
- Insert Umbrella Hole Cap: If not using an umbrella, insert the umbrella hole cap into the center hole. If using an umbrella, ensure the umbrella ring is properly seated.

5. Operating Instructions
5.1. General Use
The PHI VILLA dining table is designed for outdoor use. It can comfortably seat 6-8 people. Ensure the table is placed on a stable, level surface before use.
5.2. Using the Umbrella Hole
The table features a 2.6-inch diameter umbrella hole in the center, suitable for most standard patio umbrellas. To use, remove the umbrella hole cap. Insert your umbrella pole through the hole. It is recommended to use an umbrella base (not included) for stability, especially in windy conditions.

6. Maintenance and Care
Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your PHI VILLA dining table.
- Cleaning: Wipe the table regularly with a soft cloth and mild soap and water. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely to prevent water spots and rust. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Rust Prevention: The table features an e-coating for rust and weather resistance. However, prolonged exposure to moisture can still lead to rust. Keep the table dry when not in use and consider using a protective cover during inclement weather or off-season storage.
- Inspection: Periodically check all bolts and connections to ensure they remain tight. Re-tighten as necessary to maintain stability.
- Storage: During winter months or extended periods of non-use, store the table in a dry, protected area.
