Important Safety Information
Always ensure the canopy is properly anchored using the included sandbags, wind ropes, and ground nails, especially in windy conditions. Do not use the canopy in thunderstorms or lightning conditions. Always follow the assembly and disassembly instructions carefully to avoid injury.

Step 2: Attach the Roof Cover
Drape the roof cover over the partially opened frame. Align the corners of the cover with the corners of the frame. Secure the cover to the frame using the Velcro straps or attachments provided on the underside of the cover.
Step 3: Extend the Frame
From each corner, gently pull the outer legs outwards until the frame is fully extended. Ensure the canopy top is taut. Push the central button upwards to lock the peak tensioner into place.

Step 4: Adjust Height and Lock Legs
Press the safety thumb buttons on each leg to adjust the height of the canopy. Raise each leg to the desired height and ensure the button clicks into place, locking the leg securely. There are multiple height settings available (10.1', 10.36', 10.66').

Step 5: Install Sidewalls (Optional)
Attach the sidewalls to the canopy frame using the Velcro fasteners located around the top canopy and along the sides. The window sidewalls and zipper sidewalls can be arranged as needed. Ensure all Velcro connections are firm to create a seamless enclosure.

Step 6: Secure the Canopy
Fill the sandbags with sand and attach them to the canopy legs for added stability. Use the provided guylines and stakes to anchor the canopy firmly to the ground, especially in outdoor or windy conditions. This step is crucial for safety.

Operating Instructions
Adjusting Canopy Height:
To adjust the height, press the thumb button on each leg and slide the leg to the desired position. Ensure all four legs are locked at the same height for stability. The canopy offers three height settings: 10.1 feet, 10.36 feet, and 10.66 feet.
Using Sidewalls:
The sidewalls attach easily with Velcro. For an open setup, simply remove them. For full enclosure, attach all sidewalls. The zipper sidewalls provide convenient entry and exit points. Ensure all Velcro connections are secure to prevent drafts and maximize weather protection.

Disassembly:
To disassemble, first remove all sidewalls, sandbags, guylines, and stakes. Press the thumb buttons on the legs to lower the canopy to its lowest setting. Then, press the central button to release the peak tensioner. Gently push the frame inwards from all four corners until it is fully collapsed. Remove the roof cover and store all components in the carry bag.
Maintenance
Cleaning the Fabric:
Clean the canopy roof and sidewalls with mild soap and water. Do not use harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the fabric's waterproof and UV-resistant coating. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry completely before storage to prevent mildew.
Frame Care:
Wipe down the alloy steel frame with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Inspect the frame for any signs of rust or damage. Lubricate moving parts and joints periodically with a silicone-based spray to ensure smooth operation.
Storage:
Ensure all components are clean and completely dry before storing. Store the canopy in its carry bag in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Proper storage extends the lifespan of the product.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Canopy is difficult to open or close. | Joints are stiff or dirty. | Clean and lubricate the frame joints with a silicone spray. Ensure no parts are bent or obstructed. |
| Canopy is unstable or sways in light wind. | Not properly anchored; legs not locked. | Ensure all legs are fully extended and locked at the same height. Use sandbags, guylines, and stakes to secure the canopy firmly to the ground. |
| Water pooling on the roof. | Roof cover not taut; improper setup. | Ensure the roof cover is stretched tightly over the frame and all Velcro attachments are secure. Verify the central peak tensioner is engaged. |
| Sidewalls do not fit correctly. | Incorrect orientation; Velcro not aligned. | Check the orientation of each sidewall. Ensure the Velcro strips on the sidewalls align perfectly with those on the canopy frame and adjacent sidewalls. |
