4. Inspection, Receiving, & Claims Guidelines

• Inspection Upon Delivery:Customers or designated receivers are strongly advised to inspect the outer packaging and count the package quantity immediately upon arrival before signing the bill of lading.
• Reporting Damages:In the unlikely event of severe packaging damage or missing parts, please take detailed photographs and videos of the exterior and interior items, and report them to our customer service team within 48 hours of receipt.

1. Site Preparation & Foundation Requirements

• Level Surface:Ensure the installation ground is completely flat, solid, and structurally sound (such as reinforced concrete slabs, solid wood decking, or sturdy patio pavers).
• Square Check:Verify diagonal dimensions of the installation area prior to anchoring to guarantee that the frame is completely square and level. Improper foundation leveling may affect the smooth operation of the manual louvers.

2. Safety Guidelines

• Manpower Requirement:Due to the size and weight of structural components, we strongly recommend a minimum of 2 capable adults to execute the assembly safely.
• Personal Protective Equipment (PPE):Wear work gloves, safety glasses, and sturdy footwear during installation. Use reliable ladders and scaffolding for high-altitude assembly. Do not lean heavy components against unstable surfaces.

3. Tool Preparation

Ensure all required tools are prepared prior to beginning assembly:

• Ladder & Safety Gear
• Tape Measure & Spirit Level
• Power Drill & Masonry/Wood Drill Bits
• Hex Wrench (Allen key) & Screwdrivers
• High-quality expansion bolts or anchoring fasteners (note: anchoring hardware is not included and must match your specific ground material).

4. Operational & Maintenance Precautions

• Manual Crank Mechanism:Do not force or over-rotate the manual hand-crank past its natural stopping points, as this may damage the internal linkage system.
• Drainage Clearance:Periodically clear fallen leaves, debris, and dust from the roof louvers and integrated RainLUX gutters to maintain smooth and efficient rainwater drainage.
• Professional Assistance:While designed with a DIY-friendly structure, if you lack prior construction or assembly experience, we recommend hiring local professional contractors to guarantee structural stability and waterproof performance.
