3. Locate and untwist the red metal tie wrap holding
the branches in place.
Hint: if your branches
do not fall into place,
DO NOT force down.
Gently lift up on the
branch panels to
release the branch
from its locked
position.{Fig. C}
Now, all rows of branches should be in the open position.
Before adding the next section,
follow the shaping
instructions listed
below in Step 1.
Step 1: For a natural
uniform look, position
some branches
outward and some
upward. {Fig. D}
Repeat for each branch panel and each tree section.
The thumbscrew is to be threaded into the stand.
Insert or back-out accordingly. Look for the bottom
section of the tree, identified by a red-colored plastic
protective cap at the bottom of the pole. Remove the
cap and place the pole into the tree stand and tighten
the thumbscrew. { Figs.B }
For some 7 ft to 12 ft trees, after removing the bubble
wrap, look for the tag marked "A" attached to the outer
layer of branches. Remove the cap and place the
pole into the tree stand and tighten the thumbscrew.

press the branches down and away from the center.
Insert the top section into the opening at the top of
the last section assembled. (Fig. F)

holding the branches
in place.Refer to Hint in 3.
Repeat the shaping
instructions in Step 1.
NOTE: For some 7 ft to 12 ft trees, look for the tags marked
B, then C to F attached to the outer layer of the branches.
Starting with “B”, remove the green protective cap and
proceed to find the arrow on the brown plastic collar on
the end of the bottom section or the section marked “A”.
These markings provide the proper branch panel
alignment between the two tree sections. { Fig. E }
Place the middle section or the section marked “B” into
the bottom section or the section
marked “A” while aligning
these two marks. Slide the middle
section or the section
marked “B” completely into the
bottom section or the section
marked “A” to stabilize the tree.
4. If your tree contains only 2 sections, skip to 5.
Locate the middle section or the section marked “B”,
identified by having a green-colored plastic protective
cap at the bottom of the pole. Remove the green cap and
locate the grooved peg at the bottom of the middle section
or the section marked “B”.
