Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your Aoxun shed, consider the following common solutions.

• Missing or Damaged Parts: Upon receiving your shed, carefully inspect all components against the parts list provided in the assembly manual. If any parts are missing or damaged, contact Aoxun customer support immediately for assistance.
• Assembly Difficulties: Ensure you are strictly following the step-by-step instructions. Double-check part numbers and orientations. If holes do not align, gently adjust panels or re-check the assembly sequence. Remember, two people are required for assembly.
• Water Leakage: Verify that all screws and fasteners are tightened properly, especially along seams and roof panels. Ensure the shed is level and the base is correctly installed to prevent water pooling. Check for any gaps or unsealed areas that may require additional sealant (not included).
• Shed Instability: Confirm that the shed is securely anchored to the ground using appropriate methods for your terrain. Ensure the base is level and all connections are tight.
• Door Malfunction: Check for any obstructions in the door tracks or hinges. Ensure the shed is level, as an uneven base can cause doors to bind. Lubricate hinges if necessary.
