• With the help of two other people, lift the completed arch and insert
it into the Straight Vertical Tube (4) on each side. Do the same with
the other two arches.
• Using a ladder to reach the arch, attach Front Purlin (6), then Purlin
(7) under the arches using long bolts (11) and nuts (12). Do this in
three places each side. Securely tighten.
6. Repeat step 5, assembling the balance of the arches.
7. When the frame is completed, check all nuts and bolts for tightness.
ANCHORING INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT: Due to its size, the garage needs
to be anchored down very securely and the
frame needs to be tight and secure.
1. From the inside of the garage, place the
anchors with Steel Cable (17) on all four
corners. Place the remainder of the
anchors on the inside of the Bows at
intervals. See Figure 8.
NOTE:
Additional anchors may be required
in windy areas.
2. If you are installing on asphalt, drill a deep
1” diameter hole to accept the anchor
through the asphalt.
3. If installing in dirt, drive the anchor into the
soil using a hammer and the drive rod
provided. The more you hammer, the
more the anchor goes into the soil,
compacting the soil around it. Remove the drive rod once you have
established the maximum depth of the anchor.
4. Pull upwards on the cable, rotating the anchor into a locked position. The
anchor cuts into the undisturbed soil.
5. After placing all the anchors, wrap the wire cable from each Anchor,
around the Bottom Rails and securely attach it to itself using clamps (25)
(not shown). See Figure 8.
NOTE: If you are in any doubt as to the security of anchoring of your
garage you should add more anchors
.
WARNING: ADEQUATE ANCHORING IS ESSENTIAL. IF YOU HAVE ANY
DOUBT AS TO THE SECURITY OF THE GARAGE ADD MORE ANCHORS.
