Important Safety Information

WARNING: Always secure the pergola to a stable foundation to prevent it from tipping over in strong winds. Be cautious during assembly and disassembly to avoid injury. Regularly inspect the pergola for any signs of wear or damage and follow the manufacturer's guidelines for proper maintenance.

• Ensure all components are present and undamaged before assembly.
• Assembly requires two adults.
• Wear appropriate safety gear during assembly (gloves, eye protection).

Operating Instructions

Adjustable Louvered Roof

This enables customization of your outdoor experience, whether you desire full sun, partial shade, or complete rain protection.

Hidden Drainage System

The pergola is equipped with a hidden drainage system. Rainwater is channeled through the louvers into concealed pipes, then directed out through the posts, ensuring the interior remains dry.

Maintenance

The PURPLE LEAF Louvered Pergola is crafted from high-quality all-aluminum, making it easy to maintain and designed for years of use without fading. Minimal maintenance is required to keep it looking new.

• Regular Cleaning: Clean the aluminum frame and louvers periodically with mild soap and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the finish.
• Inspection: Regularly inspect all fasteners, connections, and moving parts (louvers, crank mechanism) for tightness and proper function. Tighten any loose screws as needed.
• Drainage System: Ensure the hidden drainage system is free from debris (leaves, dirt) to prevent water accumulation.
• Winter Care: In areas with heavy snowfall, it is recommended to keep the louvers open to prevent snow accumulation and potential damage to the roof structure.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your pergola, please refer to the following common troubleshooting tips:

• Louvers not adjusting smoothly: Check the crank mechanism for any obstructions or debris. Ensure all connections are secure. Apply a silicone-based lubricant if necessary.
• Water pooling on the roof: Verify that the hidden drainage system is clear of blockages. Ensure the pergola is installed on a level surface to allow proper water flow.
• LED lights not working: Check the power source and remote control batteries. Ensure all light connections are secure.
• Pergola instability: Re-check all anchor points and ensure they are firmly secured to the ground. Verify that all frame connections are tightened according to the assembly instructions.
