force the center of the structure up to create
the dome shape. (Fig. 4)
Step 5:
Connect one tie-down to each of the four
fiberglass poles. The tie-downs should be
attached above the second metal connector
on each pole. Hold both ends of one tie-
down in one hand and find the center with
the other hand. Wrap the rope around the
pole and insert the ends through the loop,
forming a slip knot. (Fig. 5a) Pull the knot
tight. (Fig. 5b) Repeat this step for the other
three poles (Remember: tie-downs should be
attached above the second metal connector
on each pole. Attaching the tie-down above
the connector will keep the knot from sliding
down the pole.)
Step 6:
Cover the Pond & Garden Protector with
the net. (Fig. 6)
Step 7:
Next install two net clips on each pole.
Clips should be evenly spaced, two per
pole. Begin by installing one clip closest to
the Center Pole Receptor under the first
metal connector. Pull the excess slack out of
the net before you attach the clip. Wrap the
clip around the pole and squeeze the clip to
fasten (Fig. 7). Repeat this step by securing
the second clip on the pole at the bottom
of the lower metal connector. Securing
the clips on the bottoms of the metal
connectors keep them from sliding up.
Step 8:
Place Pond & Garden Protector over the
water garden.
Step 9:
Secure the Pond & Garden Protector in
place using the tie-downs and the four
