Setup Instructions
Follow these steps for proper assembly of your Aoxun 12x10 Gazebo. Refer to the detailed assembly diagrams in the included printed manual for visual guidance.
- Site Selection: Choose a flat, level area for installation. Ensure adequate clearance around the gazebo.

- Roof Structure: Attach the roof support beams and the double-roof frame.
- Canopy Installation: Drape the main canopy over the roof structure, ensuring it is centered and taut. Install the smaller top canopy onto the upper roof frame. The canopy is made from 160g PU-coated polyester fabric.
- Netting and Curtains: Attach the full-perimeter mosquito netting and privacy curtains to the designated tracks or hooks on the frame. Ensure the Velcro-sealed edges of the netting are properly aligned to keep insects out.
- Anchoring: Secure the gazebo to the ground using the 8 expansion bolts for hard surfaces or the 4 spiral ground stakes and 8 short stakes for soft ground. Utilize the 4 wind ropes and reinforced D-rings on all four corners for multi-point anchoring to enhance stability. The gazebo is rated to withstand Level 7 winds.

Operating Your Gazebo
Versatile Usage Options
The Aoxun Gazebo offers flexible configurations to suit your needs:

- Semi-Open: Mosquito netting deployed to protect against insects while maintaining ventilation.
- Fully Closed: Privacy curtains drawn for seclusion, wind protection, and enhanced UV blockage.

Insect Protection
The gazebo features full-perimeter mosquito netting with Velcro-sealed edges to effectively keep insects out. Additionally, the top ventilation duct is equipped with a mosquito-proof net, ensuring good airflow without allowing pests to enter.

Weather Protection
The dual-layer roof design enhances airflow and provides shade. It is equipped with 8 dedicated leakage holes to prevent water accumulation, reduce fabric stress, and extend the canopy’s lifespan. The 160g PU-coated polyester fabric offers UPF 50+ sun protection and reliable water resistance, making it suitable for various outdoor conditions.

Maintenance
Regular maintenance will extend the life and appearance of your gazebo.
- Cleaning Fabric: Clean the canopy, netting, and curtains with mild soap and water. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry completely before storage. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Cleaning Frame: Wipe the metal frame with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a mild detergent. Ensure the frame is dry to prevent rust.
- Inspections: Periodically check all bolts, screws, and connections to ensure they are tight and secure. Re-tighten as necessary.
- Seasonal Storage: During off-seasons or prolonged periods of non-use, it is recommended to disassemble the gazebo and store it in a dry, protected area to prevent damage from extreme weather or prolonged exposure.
