6. Troubleshooting
This section addresses common issues that may arise during assembly or use.
| Issue | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Missing parts or misaligned holes | Packaging error, manufacturing variance, or incorrect assembly step. | Verify all parts against the manual's list. If parts are genuinely missing or holes do not align after careful re-evaluation of steps, contact customer support. |
| Shed instability during assembly | Insufficient support during initial construction, windy conditions, or uneven base. | Ensure at least two people are supporting the structure. Assemble on a calm day. Confirm the base is level and stable before proceeding. Stability improves significantly once the roof and all panels are secured. |
| Water leakage | Improper sealing during assembly, gaps between panels, or damaged components. | Inspect all seams and connections for gaps. Apply silicone sealant or caulk to any identified gaps. Ensure all screws are tightened appropriately. Check for any damage to roof panels or walls. |
| Difficulty removing protective film | Film adhered tightly due to heat or prolonged storage. | Use a plastic scraper or your fingernail to lift an edge. Peel slowly and steadily. Warm conditions might make removal easier. |
