Before You Start
Please check that all components are present and read through
these instructions carefully.
Assembly
1. Check all screws are tight in the ready-made frame sections
but avoid over-tightening.
2. Do not yet remove the protective covers on the
polycarbonate glazing: note the cover is on the outside of the
panels.
3. Assemble the back and side frames, and front braces (parts
A
,
C1
,
C2
&
C3
) using the large screws (
H
) and the pre-drilled
holes in the frame (See Fig 1).
4. Fix the base plates (
G
) on the underside of two corners as
required using screws (
J
).
5. Add the shelves (
K
) to the shelf supports.
6. Place the lid (
B
) in position so that the hinges are at the back
and are facing downwards. Line up the lid with the frame
sides and hold firmly whilst attaching the hinges to the back
panel (
A
) using screws (
I
) (see Fig 3).
7. To assemble the lid support arms:
a. Pass the washers over bolts (
F
) and insert the bolts, from
the outside, through the slots in the support arms and
into the pre-drilled holes in the sides (
C
). Screw in part
way to secure them (see Fig 5).
b. The wing bolt can be tightened when the lid is in the
required position.
8. Attach the doors (
D
) in the same way as the lid in point 6
above, lining up the doors with the frame and attaching with
screws (
I
) (see Fig 5).
9. To complete the assembly, peel off the protective sheet from
the polycarbonate panels and site the Growhouse in good
light but out of prolonged fierce sunlight. Use the corner base
plates to peg or bolt down the Growhouse if extra security
is required.
Care & maintenance
• Extra coatings of wood preservative will prolong the life of
the product but be sure to use one that is harmless to plants.
• Avoid constant contact with wet soil by mounting the frame
on bricks, slabs or wooden battens.
