Thank you for purchasing a Basta Boatlifts Solø™ Canopy. We feel you have made a wise
choice and hope that you always remain completely satisfied with its beauty and durability.

Please take a moment and read through this entire manual before beginning assembly. 
There are many parts that look similar but are different lengths, including hardware. Lay out the
parts prior to assembly with identical items grouped together.

Make sure that all pieces are assembled in the proper sequence or complications may result.

Be certain you know exactly what's going to happen during each step. There are large parts
and therefore we emphasize CAUTION should be exercised to ensure your safety at all times.
The canopy must be assembled on a day when the weather is calm and dry. We recommend
that you hire a professional or have help when assembling your canopy.

THANK YOU

TOOLS REQUIRED FOR ASSEMBLY

GENERAL  NOTES

1.

 Refer to pages 5 through 9 to identify the canopy parts. The various similar looking rafters

and rails can quickly be identified with a tape measure.

2.

 For best results the canopy should be assembled on a reasonably level surface.

3.

 Before starting assembly, lay out components in their approximate positions.

4.

 The lacing rails and rafters are always installed with 

the grooved face up

.

5.

 Over-tightening the fasteners may bend or distort the aluminum parts.

6.

 After completing the assembly of the canopy frame and before installing the canvas, go back

and recheck each of the fasteners for tightness. A few days later, check the fasteners again.

7.

 After any period of high wind, check the fasteners for tightness, especially the bolts that

tension the leg clips. Check the canvas for any rips or loose lacing.
