Components List
Please refer to the packing list included with your product for a complete and detailed list of all components, hardware, and tools required for assembly. Ensure all parts are present and undamaged before beginning assembly.
Setup & Assembly
Assembly of the Aoxun 10x12FT Outdoor Metal Storage Shed requires careful attention to detail and is best performed by two individuals. A solid, level foundation is essential for structural integrity and proper door alignment. Follow the step-by-step instructions provided in the separate assembly manual. Common tools required include a screwdriver, wrench, and possibly a drill. Ensure all bolts and screws are tightened securely but do not overtighten to avoid damaging the panels.

Operating Instructions
The shed features double-hinged doors for wide access, allowing easy entry and exit of larger items. To open, unlatch the locking mechanism and pull the doors outwards. To secure, close both doors and engage the latch. A padlock (not included) can be used with the integrated lockable door mechanism for added security. The integrated air vents, located near the roofline, facilitate air circulation to prevent condensation and maintain a suitable environment for stored items. Ensure these vents remain unobstructed.

Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Aoxun metal storage shed, regular maintenance is recommended. Periodically inspect all panels, bolts, and screws for tightness and signs of wear or damage. The galvanized steel construction is designed for rust resistance, but cleaning with mild soap and water can help maintain its appearance. The sloped roof is designed to shed rain and snow; however, in areas with heavy snowfall, it is advisable to gently remove excessive snow accumulation to prevent undue stress on the structure. Ensure the ventilation openings are clear of debris to maintain proper airflow.

Troubleshooting
- Difficulty with Assembly: Ensure all parts are correctly oriented according to the manual. Double-check that holes align before tightening fasteners. A second person can greatly assist with holding panels in place.
- Panel Alignment Issues: If panels do not align perfectly, slightly loosen surrounding fasteners, adjust the panel, and then re-tighten. Ensure the base is perfectly level.
- Water Leaks: Verify that all roof panels are properly overlapped and all screws, especially those on the roof, have their washers securely in place. Check for any gaps or damaged seals.
- Door Sticking/Misalignment: Confirm the shed is on a level foundation. Check door hinges and adjust if necessary. Ensure no debris is obstructing the door's path.
- Dents or Damage: While the shed is designed to be robust, minor dents can occur during handling or assembly. Small dents in non-structural panels typically do not affect functionality.
