Replacing the slings on your Winston patio furniture is a relatively easy task that can be completed in a few hours. Follow these steps to get started: ### 1.

Prepare Your Furniture * Remove the old slings from your furniture. To do this, simply unscrew the bolts that hold the slings in place. * Once the old slings are removed, clean the frame of your furniture with a mild detergent and water. * Allow the frame to dry completely before proceeding. ### 3. Measure and Cut the New Slings * Measure the length and width of the frame of your furniture. * Cut the new slings to the same size. * Make sure to add 1-2 inches to the length and width so that you have enough material to wrap around the frame. ### 4. Install the New Slings * Wrap the new slings around the frame of your furniture. * Make sure that the slings are centered and evenly distributed. * Secure the slings in place with the bolts that you removed earlier. * Tighten the bolts until the slings are taut. ### 5. Level the Furniture * Use a level to make sure that the furniture is level. * If the furniture is not level, adjust the bolts until it is. ### 6. Enjoy Your New Slings! * Your Winston patio furniture is now ready to be enjoyed. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the outdoors! ### Additional Tips: * Use a sharp pair of scissors to cut the new slings. This will help to prevent fraying. * Be careful not to overtighten the bolts when securing the slings. This could damage the frame of your furniture. * If you are replacing the slings on a reclining chair, make sure that the new slings are compatible with the reclining mechanism. * If you are unsure about how to replace the slings on your Winston patio furniture, you can always consult the manufacturer's instructions or contact a qualified technician.
