1. Important Safety Information

Please read and understand all safety instructions before installing or using the canopy sidewalls. Failure to follow these instructions may result in injury or product damage.

• Secure Installation: Always assemble and secure the canopy firmly to prevent it from being blown away, especially in windy conditions. Use all provided attachment points.

3. Setup Instructions

Follow these steps to properly install your SCOCANOPY Sidewalls onto your 12x12ft straight-leg canopy frame.

1. Prepare the Canopy Frame: Ensure your 12x12ft straight-leg canopy frame is fully erected and stable before attaching the sidewalls.
2. Attach Top Velcro Straps: Take one sidewall panel. Locate the Velcro straps along the top edge of the sidewall. Wrap these straps firmly around the trusses (horizontal bars) of your canopy frame. Ensure a snug fit to prevent sagging.
3. Secure Side Velcro Tabs: Along the vertical edges of the sidewall, locate the 8 Velcro tabs. Wrap these tabs around the vertical legs of your canopy frame. This secures the sidewall to the legs and helps maintain tension.
4. Connect Multiple Sidewalls (if applicable): If installing multiple sidewalls, align the zippers on the vertical edges of adjacent panels. Zip them together from top to bottom to create a continuous, sealed wall.
5. Adjust for Fit: Once all panels are attached, make any necessary adjustments to the Velcro straps and tabs to ensure the sidewalls are taut and evenly distributed around the canopy frame.

4. Operating Instructions

The SCOCANOPY Sidewalls are designed for flexible use, adapting to various outdoor needs.

• Full Enclosure: For maximum privacy and protection from elements like sun, wind, and rain, install all three sidewall panels and zip them together at the corners.
• Partial Coverage: If you only need protection on one or two sides, simply install the required number of panels. The Velcro tabs allow you to secure individual panels to the canopy legs without needing to connect them to other sidewalls.
• Adjusting for Airflow/Access: To allow for airflow or easy entry/exit, you can partially unzip the panels or unfasten the side Velcro tabs to temporarily open a section.
• Weather Adaptability: The durable, waterproof, and UV-blocking fabric ensures comfort in various weather conditions, from sunny days to light rain.

5. Maintenance

Proper care and maintenance will extend the lifespan of your SCOCANOPY Sidewalls.

• Cleaning: Clean the sidewalls with mild soap and lukewarm water. Use a soft brush or cloth to gently scrub any soiled areas. Rinse thoroughly with clean water. Do not use harsh detergents, bleach, or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the fabric and its waterproof coating.
• Drying: Always ensure the sidewalls are completely dry before folding and storing them. Storing damp fabric can lead to mildew and degradation. Air dry in a shaded area if possible.
• Storage: Fold the dry sidewalls neatly and store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. This helps prevent material breakdown and preserves the fabric's integrity.
• Zipper Care: Keep zippers clean and free of debris. If zippers become stiff, apply a silicone-based lubricant sparingly.

6. Troubleshooting

Here are solutions to common issues you might encounter with your canopy sidewalls.

• Sidewalls not fitting properly:
  • Ensure your canopy frame is a 12x12ft straight-leg model. These sidewalls are specifically designed for this size and type.
  • Check that all Velcro straps and tabs are securely fastened and evenly distributed. Adjust tension as needed.
• Water leakage:
  • Verify that all sidewall panels are zipped together completely and securely at the corners.
  • Ensure the top Velcro straps are tightly attached to the canopy trusses to prevent water from seeping through gaps.
  • Inspect the fabric for any tears or punctures. Small holes can be repaired with a waterproof patch kit.
• Zippers sticking or difficult to operate:
  • Clean the zipper teeth to remove any dirt or debris.
  • Apply a small amount of zipper lubricant (e.g., silicone spray or wax) to the teeth.
  • Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper mechanism.
• Wind damage:
  • Always use additional anchoring methods for your canopy (e.g., sandbags, stakes, guy ropes) in windy conditions, even with sidewalls installed.
  • If strong winds are expected, it is recommended to remove the sidewalls and/or collapse the canopy to prevent damage.
