Troubleshooting
Hoops seem unstable in wind.
Ensure hoops are securely pushed into the ground. Utilize the middle support bar for added rigidity. Consider spacing hoops closer together in very windy locations.
Cover material is difficult to secure.
If clips are not included, use garden staples, weights, or string to anchor the cover firmly to the ground or hoops. Ensure the cover is taut but not over-stretched.
Rod joiners are stiff.
Gently wiggle the rods as you push them into the joiners. If resistance is high, ensure no debris is obstructing the joiner socket.
