Watch for helpful assembly "HINTS" while following these instructions.
BEFORE YOU START: SITE CHOICE
Where will your garden grow best?
This Weatherguard™ Greenhouse is designed with a non-rigid flex frame system, allowing it to move in moderately windy conditions. Locating
your shelter next to a natural or man-made wind block (e.g., building, fence, trees, hedges, etc.) will help prevent the greenhouse from potential
damge in severe wind conditions.
Once you have selected your greenhouse location, clear a FLAT, LEVEL, SQUARE site free of all debris.

FRAMEWORK ASSEMBLY
As the healthy plant stem supports the leaves, so the
correctly assembled framework supports the roof.
Working from the foundation up, begin assembling
the greenhouse framework. First, install the short
straight vertical extension tubes over the top shaft
of each base.
SEE DRAWING C.
CAUTION!
The Weatherguard™ Greenhouse
frame design is flexible. Please be aware that
overhead parts and/or pipes can come loose and
fall during assembly. DO NOT allow children on or
around the assembly site when erecting your
greenhouse. And ALWAYS pay attention overhead
for safety! Using the safety ropes supplied to firmly
tie each arch together will hold all fittings and purlins
in place. After assembly, safety ropes must be left
tied in place for added wind stability.
SEE DRAWING D.
Next, using T-fittings for the front and rear greenhouse
ends and cross fittings in the middle, begin forming
the arches and inserting the remaining purlins.
SEE DRAWINGS C & D.

FOUNDATION ASSEMBLY
As the healthy plant stem supports the leaves, so the
correctly assembled framework supports the roof.
Simply locate the appropriate parts enclosed in the
box. (note: the parts in the box are not labeled by
letters-please reference by shape and measurement.)
Notice how the ratchets are unique to each corner.
Start by laying out the four corner pieces (part “A”).
Next, locate the double “T” pieces (part “C”) and
connect to the corner pieces (A). These are a tight
fitting and may require the use of a hammer. Finally,
locate your cross tubes (part “B”) and connect the
two assembled side pieces. These may also need
to have help to fit.
NOTE:
One greenhouses larger than 4’ wide Part B is a split tube
that will need to be assembled.
IMPORTANT NOTICE! PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS COMPLETELY PRIOR TO ASSEMBLING
YOUR WEATHERGUARD™ GREENHOUSE.
