2. Safety Information

Your safety and the proper functioning of the carport are paramount. Adhere to the following safety guidelines:

• Secure Anchoring: Ensure the carport is securely anchored to the ground, especially in windy conditions, to prevent damage or injury. Inadequate anchoring can lead to structural failure and potential hazards.
• Temperature Caution: The fabric of the canopy may become hot when exposed to direct sunlight. Exercise caution when touching the carport surface during peak sunlight hours to avoid burns.
• Snow and Water Accumulation: The round roof design is intended to reduce snow and water accumulation. However, in areas with heavy snowfall or prolonged rain, regularly clear any significant buildup to prevent stress on the structure.
• Assembly Safety: Always follow assembly instructions carefully. Use appropriate safety gear, such as gloves, during installation. It is recommended to have at least two people for assembly.
• Site Selection: Choose a level and stable site for installation, clear of overhead obstructions like power lines or tree branches.

5. Maintenance

Regular maintenance will extend the lifespan of your COBIZI Carport Canopy.

• Cleaning: Clean the canopy fabric periodically with mild soap and water. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the material. Rinse thoroughly.
• Frame Inspection: Periodically inspect the steel frame for any signs of rust, corrosion, or damage. While the frame is galvanized and rust-resistant, extreme conditions or prolonged exposure can affect it. Address any issues promptly.
• Anchor Check: Regularly check the tightness of all anchors, elastic balls, ground nails, and wind ropes. Re-tighten as necessary to ensure the carport remains securely fastened, especially after strong winds or storms.
• Fabric Condition: Inspect the PE tarpaulin for any tears, punctures, or excessive wear. Small damages can be repaired with appropriate patch kits to prevent further deterioration.
