Kingfisher Garden Shed 5059340875408 Assembly Instructions

Important Safety Instructions

• Check local planning permission before installation.
• Ensure access to all sides of the shed during construction.
• Ensure you have a good, firm, and level foundation before starting assembly.
• Carefully follow all assembly steps.
• Verify all parts are present before starting.
• Ensure the base is firm and level; remove any obstructions.
• Sort all parts by number before assembly.
• Always wear work gloves, long sleeves, and safety goggles during assembly. Some components may have sharp edges.
• Use tools carefully and familiarize yourself with their operation.
• Keep children and animals away from the assembly site.
• Ensure ladder stability if used; never rest full weight on the roof or other parts.
• Do not attempt assembly in strong windy conditions.
• Wear safety eyewear when using power tools and ensure they are watertight.
• Do not place items on unbuilt components to maintain their original condition.
• The shed must be built on a solid foundation (reinforced concrete or large concrete slabs recommended).
• Ensure the foundation allows for a 10 cm perimeter and is level with adequate drainage.
• Foundation choice and construction are not covered by warranty.
• For concrete foundations, prepare a base layer of stones/pebbles and ensure a minimum thickness of 10 cm. Allow cement to dry for at least 48 hours.
• Anchor the shed firmly to the foundation to protect it from strong winds.
• Do not store pool chemicals in the shed. Store combustible and corrosive materials in watertight containers.
• Adjust drill torque limits to prevent damage to metal parts.
• Check dimensions for perfect squaring of the foundation.
• Remove protective films before assembly.
• Use screws with plastic washers only on pre-painted surfaces.
• Remove snow from the roof after snowfall (over 10 cm can be hazardous).
• Disassembly should follow manual instructions in reverse order.
• Do not walk on the roof (risk of falling).
• Choose a dry and calm day for installation. Avoid windy weather.
• Be careful of wet or muddy ground.
• Site Selection: Avoid overhanging trees. Nearby trees/bushes/fences can act as windbreaks.
• Site Preparation: Ensure the site is level. Use the foundation base as shown on packaging. Do not build directly on lawn. Ensure concrete pads slope for drainage. Allow concrete to dry.
