Assembly Tips

1. Clear a working area to allow access on all 4 sides. A raised work surface will make assembly easier.
2. All parts are identified. When working through the instructions page by page, the diagrams show where each part is positioned.
3. Some holes are pre-punched to allow fixing using self-tapping screws or rivets. Where additional holes are required, a drill bit is included.
4. Before starting, to avoid accidental injury, wear gloves to protect your hands, safety glasses to protect your eyes, and shoes or boots to protect your feet.
5. Keep children away from the construction site.
6. Most assembly can be completed by one person; assistance may be needed during the erection stage.
7. Note: Local government authorities may have rules and regulations on shed installation, and you may need approval to erect this shed.
8. If accessories are slightly deformed, use tools to straighten them; this will not affect normal use.

Assembly Steps

Panel Assembly: Rear Walls
