Maintenance
- Regularly inspect all bolts and connections to ensure they remain tight.

- For long-term durability, especially in harsh weather conditions, consider applying a protective sealant to exposed screws and joints.
Troubleshooting
Leaks from the Roof
- Check for proper installation of roof panels and ensure all screws are tightened.
