UNPACK AND IDENTIFY PARTS
The following steps will ensure that you have all the
necessary parts
before
you begin to assemble the shelter.
1. Unpack the contents of the shipment and place where
you can easily inventory the parts. Refer to the Bill of
Materials/Spec Sheets.
2. Verify that all parts listed on the Bill of Materials/Spec
Sheets are present. If anything is missing or you have
questions, consult the Pictorial Parts Guide and all
shelter diagrams throughout these instructions for
clarification, or contact Customer Service.
NOTE:
At this time, you do not need to open the plastic
bags containing the fasteners (if used).
QUICK START GUIDE
For a quick overview of this shelter and its components,
consult the Quick Start Guide near the back of these
instructions.
The pages of the Quick Start Guide show exploded views
of all critical connections. Use the diagrams in the Quick
Start section to assemble the frame of your building.
Consult the remainder of these instructions for important
details that will help during the construction.
SPECIAL NOTE: Boards for Frame Assembly
These instructions recommend installing a board under the
base plates along each side of the frame. The board runs
from front to the back of the building.
This board is
not included
with the shipment and must be
supplied by the customer. Treated lumber works best.
When installed properly, the board helps prevent the shelter
from sinking into the ground when anchored. The board
also provides a surface to attach base plates.
Consult these instructions, or contact Customer Service
for additional information regarding the installation of these
boards.
