3. Setup and Assembly
The Aoxun Hardtop Gazebo is designed for straightforward assembly, but it requires careful attention to detail and teamwork. It is recommended that 3-4 people participate in the assembly process, which typically takes 2-4 hours.
General Assembly Guidelines:
- Unpack and Organize: Carefully unpack all components and verify against the parts list in your included manual. Organize parts by type to streamline the assembly process.
- Read Instructions: Thoroughly read the entire assembly manual before beginning. Pay close attention to diagrams and step-by-step instructions.
- Do Not Overtighten: Initially, hand-tighten all screws and bolts. Fully tighten all fasteners only after the entire structure is assembled and aligned, unless otherwise specified.
- Use Proper Tools: Utilize the provided tools or appropriate alternatives. A drill driver with the correct hex bit can save time but use a low setting to avoid stripping screws.
- Roof Panel Installation: When installing roof panels, ensure they are oriented correctly. It is often easier to assemble roof sections on the ground before lifting them into place.
- Anchoring: Once assembled, ensure the gazebo is securely anchored to the ground using the provided ground stakes and expansion screws.

5. Maintenance
Regular maintenance will help prolong the life and appearance of your Aoxun Hardtop Gazebo.
- Cleaning: Clean the frame and roof panels periodically with mild soap and water. Rinse thoroughly with clean water. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scrubbers that could damage the finish.

- Drainage System: Ensure the rain gutters and drainage paths are clear of debris to maintain efficient water runoff.
6. Troubleshooting
Here are solutions to common issues you might encounter with your gazebo:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
