Storage
Remove all holiday decorations. Gently press tips back into center
branch. Raise all branches to original upright position taking care not
to place undue pressure on the attached ends of the branches. When
disassembling tree, a twisting motion will help to separate the sections
from each other. All tree parts can be replaced in original carton and
should be stored in a cool, dry place.
Shaping Instructions
Shaping the tree branches is the last step of assembly. The care and
attention given to this final process will result in a genuinely beautiful
and appealing holiday centerpiece.
1. Every tree style is shipped from the factory with the tips of each
branch compressed to the center (Figure 2).
2. Each branch tip must be shaped to it’s proper position to give the
tree a natural look. This is done by gently grasping the left and
right wing tips and spreading them out away from the center tip
(Figure 3).
3. Each individual tip should then be spread out separately. Tips
should then be bent slightly upward to add a more natural looking
appearance. Figure 4 shows a typical tree branch after shaping.
4. As you shape closer to the top, the branches will no longer have
wing tips, but will otherwise shape in the same manner as lower
sections.
Optional: Shaping of the tree top may be easier performed prior to
attachment to middle tree section.

Assembly Instructions (Figure 1)
Each carton contains one top section, two middle sections,
one bottom section and a metal tree stand.
1. Unfold the tree stand and partially insert the eye bolt.
Remove packing material from ends of poles. Put bottom
section pole into tree stand making sure it is seated
properly. Tighten the eye bolt.
2. Insert the lower middle tree section into the bottom
section. Optional: You may want to lubricate middle section
pole ends prior to assembly. This will make the sections
easier to separate when disassembling for storage.
Connect the light string cord from the bottom section into
the receptacle in the lower middle section.
Take care not to let the wires get caught in branch hinges
where they may become damaged.
3. Insert the upper middle section into the lower middle section.
Connect the light string cord from the this section into the
receptacle in the lower middle section.
4. Insert the top tree section into the green plastic opening of
the upper middle section. This is the “pole cap” which
keeps tree top section securely in place. Connect the light
string cord from the this section into the receptacle in the
lower middle section.
5. Remove wrap from sections and branches should fall into
place. If any branches remain upright, gently lower them
Fig. 1
into proper position making sure not to place undue pressure on the
brackets. Each branch must be shaped to a natural position by
spreading tips away from center (See Shaping Instructions).
