Troubleshooting
Frame feels unstable after assembly
Ensure all corner connectors are fully locked and all ground stakes are hammered flush to the surface.
Cover is flapping in the wind
Verify that all bungee or tie-down points on the cover are pulled tight and properly secured to the frame.
Difficulty connecting frame sections
Ensure the frame segments are on a flat surface; if the ground is uneven, clear the area before attempting to click the pieces together.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the tunnel, start by laying out the steel frame segments in your desired configuration.

Drive the ground stakes into the earth at each support junction to provide wind resistance.
Maintenance Tips:
- Regularly inspect the wire mesh for any signs of tampering by local wildlife.
- Check the ground stakes monthly, especially after heavy rain, to ensure the unit has not shifted.
- When applying the UV-resistant cover, ensure it is pulled taut to prevent water pooling during rainfall.
- Clean the steel frame with a soft brush and water if you live in a coastal area to remove salt buildup.
