4. If your tree contains only 2 sections, skip to 5.
Locate the middle section, identified by having a green
colored plastic protective cap. Remove the green cap from the
end of the middle section. For some 7' to 12’ trees, look for tags

pole of the bottom section (or the lower section just
assembled). Locate the white mark on the branch holder
frame on the middle section (or the section being assembled).
Align these two visible white marks to assemble the tree
sections together.{Fig. F} NOTE: For white trees, the color
