Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Gazebo GZ734.
When properly assembled and maintained, this gazebo will provide many years of enjoyment!
These instructions include helpful hints and important information needed to safely assemble and properly
maintain the gazebo. Please read these instructions completely before you begin.
Our patented gazebo has been designed for easy assembly. All steps can be completed by a team of
three people. The assembly should take about two hours.
Before Starting Assembly:
CAREFULLY READ ALL THE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE YOU BEGIN AND FOLLOW THE
STEPS IN THE ORDER THEY ARE PRESENTED.
1. Make sure you have all the necessary parts:
Compare the contents of the one carton to the List of Parts. If any parts are missing or damaged,
or you have any questions, please contact Customer service:
(877)782 4482
or by email at
before beginning assembly.
2. Lay the parts out in separate staging areas:
The List of Parts has the corresponding step number referenced to each part. We recommend that
while you go through the list, make staging areas for each step and place the parts necessary for
each step in these areas. This will save you time and effort during assembly.
3. Select a Location:
When selecting a location for your gazebo, a
fl
at level area is essential and if possible with proper
water drainage and easy access to power and water, if neccessary.
Choose a sunny, level position away from overhanging trees and power lines and protected from the
wind as much as possible. Locate underground pipes or cables before preparing the site or anchoring
the gazebo.
Note: You may assemble the gazebo on a hard level surface and move it to its
fina
l location when
fini
shed. Make sure that there are no obstacles between the assembly area and t
he fina
l position.
4. Prepare a Foundation:
After choosing a location, proper preparation of the site is recommended. The site must be level.
If the site is not level, create a base slightly larger than the outside dimensions of the gazebo using a
perimeter of two by fours
fill
ed with either soil, sod or gravel.
Make sure the base is square by measuring the diagonals from both directions and making sure
they are equal. The gazebo is secured with pegs into holes cast with concrete.
If you decide to have a concrete base, it is best to contact a reliable contractor to make sure it i
s fl
at
and level. Make sure you have checked with your local authorities regarding any required building
permits.
