2. Safety Information

Adherence to the following safety guidelines is crucial for preventing injury and damage to the greenhouse:

• Always secure the greenhouse to the ground using expansion screws in the pre-drilled holes of the base to enhance overall stability.
• Apply glass glue to the connection between the PC board and frame for improved water protection and sealing.
• Remove precious items from inside the greenhouse during severe weather conditions, such as storms or high winds. Do not use the greenhouse during such events.
• Exercise caution due to sharp edges and heavy components during assembly and maintenance. Wear appropriate protective gear, including gloves.

3. Setup and Assembly

The YITAHOME greenhouse is designed for straightforward assembly, though careful attention to detail is required. It is recommended to have at least two people for assembly.

6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues during assembly or use, consider the following common problems and solutions:

• Difficulty with Assembly / Parts Not Lining Up: Ensure all pieces are correctly oriented according to the diagrams. Some parts may be specific to left or right sides. Verify part numbers carefully. Lay out all pieces for a step before attempting to connect them.
• Missing Parts: Double-check all packaging. If parts are genuinely missing, contact YITAHOME customer support with your product model and purchase information.
• Water Leakage: Ensure all polycarbonate panels are properly seated in their frames. Re-apply glass glue to all panel-to-frame connections, paying close attention to corners and seams.
