Thank you for purchasing a 4x2
Garden Chalet.  Please take the time
to identify all the parts prior to 
assembly.  

Please use Safety Eyewear and Gloves
while Assembling. Be sure to read and 
follow all operating instructions for any
tools used during assembly. 
Remember- NO SAW CUTTING IS

Safety Points and Other Considerations
Our products are built for use based on
proper installation and normal residential
use, on level ground. 
Please follow the instruction manual when
building your Grand Garden Chalet and
retain the manual for future maintenance
purposes.

Some of the safety and usage measures
you may wish to consider include:

-If the product is elevated, any structural
and building code requirements are solely
the customer's responsibility, and should 
be abided by. 

-In high or gusty wind conditions it is
advisable to keep the structure securely
grounded. 

-Have a regular maintenance plan to ensure
screws, doors, roof and parts are tight.
