3. Setup

The Glitzhome Metal Turkey Porch Decor requires minimal assembly. Follow these steps to prepare your decor for display:

1. Unpack Components: Carefully remove all parts from the packaging. Verify that all components, including the main turkey body, tail feathers, and base/feet, are present.
2. Attach Base/Feet: The turkey's feet or base typically attach to the main body using two screws. Align the pre-drilled holes on the feet with those on the turkey's body. Insert the screws and tighten them securely. No specialized tools are required for this step.
3. Attach Tail Feathers (if separate): If the tail feathers are a separate piece, slide or attach them into the designated slot on the turkey's back. Ensure it is firmly seated.
4. Placement: Position the assembled turkey decor on a flat, stable surface.

4. Placement Guidelines

This metal turkey decor is suitable for various decorative applications. Consider the following guidelines for optimal placement and longevity:

• Recommended Use: Ideal for covered porches, entryways, or indoor spaces.
• Outdoor Placement: While designed to withstand some outdoor elements, prolonged exposure to heavy rain, strong winds, or direct, intense sunlight may affect its finish and stability. For outdoor use, a covered area is recommended to preserve its appearance.
• Stability: Ensure the decor is placed on a level surface. In areas prone to wind, consider securing the base or placing it in a sheltered location to prevent tipping.

5. Maintenance

To maintain the appearance and extend the life of your Glitzhome Metal Turkey Porch Decor, follow these simple maintenance tips:

• Cleaning: Gently wipe the surface with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and debris. For more stubborn dirt, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed immediately by a dry cloth to prevent water spots or rust.
• Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the painted finish.
• Seasonal Storage: When not in use, store the decor in a dry, protected area to prevent exposure to extreme weather conditions. Original packaging can be used for storage.

6. Troubleshooting

This section addresses common concerns you might encounter with your decor.

• Issue: Decor tips over easily.
  Solution: Ensure the decor is placed on a completely flat and stable surface. For outdoor use, place it in a sheltered area away from strong winds. If necessary, consider adding weights to the base or securing it with garden stakes (not included) for increased stability.
• Issue: Paint fading or chipping.
  Solution: While the paint is designed to be fade-resistant, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and harsh weather can cause wear. Relocate the decor to a shaded or covered area. For minor chips, touch-up paint suitable for metal can be used.
• Issue: Missing parts upon arrival.
  Solution: If any components are missing or damaged, please contact Glitzhome customer support immediately for assistance.
