4. Setup (Assembly)

4.3. Cover Installation
- Carefully unfold the fabric cover.

4.4. Ground Anchoring
For optimal stability, especially in windy conditions, it is highly recommended to anchor the shed to the ground. Use ground stakes, sandbags, or other suitable anchoring methods (not included) through the designated anchor points on the base frame.
5. Operating (Usage)
The Sealey MCS01 shed is designed for convenient motorcycle storage.
- To open, unfasten the front closure (e.g., zipper, buckles) and lift the front section of the cover.
- Carefully ride or push your motorcycle into the shed. Ensure there is adequate clearance around the motorcycle.
- To close, lower the front section and secure all fasteners to protect the motorcycle from weather and dust.
- Ensure the shed is always closed when not in use to prevent damage from wind or rain.
6. Maintenance
Regular maintenance will extend the life of your storage shed.
- Cleaning: Clean the fabric cover periodically with mild soap and water. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry completely before closing.
- Inspection: Regularly inspect the frame for any signs of rust, bending, or damage. Check all fasteners for tightness.
- Cover Care: If the cover shows signs of wear, tears, or significant fading, consider replacing it to maintain protection.
- Winterization: In areas with heavy snowfall, it is recommended to remove snow accumulation from the roof to prevent structural damage. Consider disassembling and storing the shed indoors during prolonged periods of extreme weather.
