4. Setup and Assembly Instructions

Follow these steps carefully for proper assembly. It is recommended to have at least two people for assembly.

1. Prepare the Area: Choose a flat, level surface for assembly. Clear any obstacles and ensure sufficient space around the gazebo footprint.
2. Assemble the Base Frame: Connect the main support legs and base crossbars according to the diagram in your specific instruction sheet. Ensure all connections are secure but do not fully tighten bolts until the entire frame is assembled.
3. Construct the Roof Frame: Attach the roof beams and connectors to the top of the main support legs. Assemble the center pole and any additional roof supports.
4. Install the Canopy Fabric: Carefully drape the main canopy top over the roof frame. Ensure it is centered and all corners are aligned. Secure the canopy to the frame using the integrated ties or fasteners. If your model has a dual-tier roof, install the smaller ventilation canopy on top.
5. Attach Curtains and Nettings: Hang the side curtains and mosquito nettings from the designated tracks or hooks on the gazebo frame. Ensure they can move freely.
6. Final Tightening and Anchoring: Once the entire structure is assembled and aligned, fully tighten all bolts and screws. Securely anchor the gazebo to the ground using the provided ground stakes. For additional stability, consider using sandbags or weights on the legs, especially in areas prone to wind.

5. Operating Instructions

The COBIZI Gazebo is designed for ease of use and provides versatile outdoor shelter.

5.1 Using Curtains and Nettings

• Privacy Curtains: The gazebo features privacy curtains that can be drawn closed for seclusion or tied back to the legs for an open feel. Use the integrated ties to secure them.
• Mosquito Nettings: The mosquito nettings provide protection from insects. They can be zipped closed to fully enclose the gazebo or tied back when not needed.
• Both curtains and nettings operate independently, allowing for flexible configuration.

5.2 Weather Considerations

• While the canopy is waterproof and offers UV protection (50+), it is not designed for extreme weather.
• In anticipation of strong winds, heavy rain, or snow, it is recommended to remove the canopy fabric and secure the frame to prevent damage.

6. Maintenance

Regular maintenance will extend the life of your gazebo.

• Cleaning Fabric: Clean the canopy, curtains, and nettings with mild soap and water. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. Allow fabric to air dry completely before storage.
• Cleaning Frame: Wipe the metal frame with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, use mild soap and water. Dry thoroughly to prevent rust.
• Inspection: Periodically check all bolts, screws, and connections to ensure they are tight. Inspect the fabric for any tears or damage.
• Storage: For long-term storage or during off-season, disassemble the gazebo and store all components in a dry, protected area to prevent damage from weather and pests.
