Owner's Manual

Before beginning construction, check local building codes regarding footings, location
and other requirements. Study and understand this owner's manual.
Important information and helpful tips will make your construction easier and more
enjoyable.

Assembly Instructions:

 Instructions are supplied in this manual and contain all

appropriate information for your building model. Review all instructions before you begin,
and during assembly, follow the step sequence carefully for correct results.

Foundation and Anchoring:

 Your storage building must be anchored to prevent wind

damage. A foundation is also necessary as a base in order to construct a square and level
building. Anchoring and foundation materials are not included with your building. We
recommend the combined use of an

 Arrow Floor Frame Kit

 and an

 Arrow Anchoring

Kit

 as an effective method of securing your building to the ground (Available by mail order

or at your local dealer) or you may construct a foundation and anchoring system of your
choice. Your assembly instructions provide information on a few methods commonly used
to secure and level a storage building.

Parts and Parts List:

 Check to be sure that you have all the necessary parts for your

building.

•All part numbers can be found on the parts. All of these numbers (before the -) must agree with the
numbers on the parts list. The parts list is located on page 12.

•If you find that a part is missing, include the model number of your building and contact:

Arrow Group Industries, Inc. Customer Service Department
Route 50 East    Breese, Illinois 62230
1-800-851-1085

•Separate contents of the carton by the part number while reviewing parts list.  The first few steps
show how to join related parts to make larger sub assemblies which will be used later.

•Familiarize yourself with the hardware and fasteners for easier use during construction. These are
packaged within the carton. Note that extra fasteners have been supplied for your convenience.
