The gazebo should not be installed adjacent to trees or a sloped roof. Snow and ice may
slide onto the gazebo and cause it to collapse.
Step 1:
Assemble beams “A” and “B” using center plate “F”, securing tightly with 8 bolts “Pp”. Repeat with
beams “C” and “D”, also using center plate “F”. Lay out the assembled beams in a rectangle and join
at each corner with a corner plate “E”, again securing tightly with 8 bolts “Pp”.

Step 3:
Have someone lift the beam assembly and attach each leg “G” into a corner, securing each using 4
bolts “Pp”. Repeat until all four legs are in place.
Step 4:
Install middle joint cover
“J” at each of the 4 beam
junctions, using 4 screws
“Qq” each.
Install corner cover “I” at
each of the corners,
using 4 screws “Qq”
each.

Step 5:
Attach mounting brackets “O” to rafters “M”, and mounting brackets “P” to rafters “N” and “N-2”. Use
threaded hole about 8” from end of rafter.
Lift central hub “L” to a height of about 110” (2.79m) at the center of the gazebo. (Caution: this part
may be heavy, use support as needed)
Attach one end of rafter “M” to the hub using 1 bolt “Pp”. Attach other end with mounting bracket to
the corner of the beam assembly with 2 bolts “Pp”. Use the set of holes closest to the inside. Repeat
with remaining “M” rafters.
Similarly, attach one end of rafter “N” to the hub using 1 bolt “Pp”. Attach other end with mounting
bracket to the beam assembly with 2 screws “Qq”. Use the set of holes closest to the inside. Repeat
with remaining “N” and “N-2” rafters.
Step 6:
Once all rafters are in place, install top
cap “K” over central hub “L”. Use flat
washers and acorn nuts “Vv” to
secure tightly.

Step 9:
Slide the indicated polycarbonate
panels into the spaces between the
rafters, using the top groove of
each rafter. Ensure the side meant
to face the sun is on the outside.
Use a rubber hammer to carefully
tap each panel into the grooves.
Step 10:
Insert the middle roof joints in between the rafters and slide them up under the polycarbonate panels.
Tap lightly to ensure the panel is fully in the slot. Seen from above, most of the joint as well as the
drain holes should be beneath the roof panels.
To adjust the middle joints to line up : once all polycarbonate roof panels are in place, use a small
piece of wood and hammer, then tap down on the middle of the joint bringing it down and holding at
the same time the joint and top polycarbonate.
Do not tap too hard.

Step 11:
Slide the remaining polycarbonate roof panels in the lower groove of the rafters and into the lower slot
of the roof joints. Tap to make sure panels fit securely and do not extend past the ends of the rafters.
Step 12:
Starting from any end,
install all edgings, with
end caps “Gg” or “Hh” at
each junction or corner
respectively. Use bolts
“Pp” to secure.

7

Step 13:
Install the
upper
crossbars on
the interior of
the roof using
bolts “Pp”,
following the
shaped ends
and letters. Do
not tighten bolts
immediately;

and tighten
once all
crossbars are
in place.
Repeat this
step with the
lower
crossbars.
Step 14:
a) Secure each foot plate into
the ground using screws “Rr”
and washers “Tt”.
b) Use lag shields (Ss) if
needed for harder surfaces.
