WARNING:

• This shed is designed to store items. Always ensure the shed is properly assembled and stable before use.
• Be cautious when handling components during assembly.
• Do not overload the shed beyond its weight capacity.
• Weather conditions may affect the shed's stability; always check the shed's condition before use after exposure to harsh weather.
• Ensure the installation site is a solid, level surface, such as concrete or a treated wood platform, for proper assembly and performance.

3. Setup and Assembly

The Rubbermaid Large Vertical Resin Outdoor Storage Shed is designed for straightforward assembly without special tools. It is recommended to have two people for assembly.

3.1 Site Preparation

For proper assembly and performance, your storage building needs to be built on a solid, level surface. A concrete or treated wood platform is recommended. Ensure the chosen site is clear of debris and provides adequate space around the shed for assembly and access.

3.2 Floor Installation

Assemble the floor panels according to the detailed instructions provided in the assembly video. Ensure panels overlap correctly and are secured with the provided screws. Do not overtighten screws.

3.3 Wall Installation

Position the wall panels into the floor panel slots, ensuring dovetails align properly. Push downward until each panel clicks securely into place. Use wall connectors to secure adjacent wall panels.

3.4 Roof and Door Installation

Install the roof braces onto the sidewalls. Carefully place the roof panels, aligning the tongues on the walls with the grooves in the roof. Secure the roof panels with screws. Finally, install the left and right doors into their respective hinge sockets on the floor and roof.

5. Maintenance

The shed's durable resin construction is dent and leak resistant, designed to withstand harsh weather conditions. To maintain its appearance and functionality:

• Regularly clean the exterior with mild soap and water.
• Inspect the shed periodically for any signs of wear or damage, especially after severe weather.
• Ensure the doors open and close smoothly and that the locking mechanism functions correctly.

6. Troubleshooting

• Doors do not align or close properly: Ensure the shed is installed on a completely level surface. Uneven ground can cause misalignment.
• Water inside the shed: Verify all panels are securely clicked into place and all screws are tightened (without overtightening). Check for any gaps or damage to the resin.
• Difficulty with assembly: Review the assembly instructions and videos carefully. Ensure all parts are correctly oriented before attempting to connect them. Having a second person assist can greatly simplify the process.
