GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

A NOTE ON SAFETY

· Some parts may have sharp edges. It is advisable to wear gloves when

handling these items and safety glasses if drilling holes. Sensible shoes

are highly recommended.

· Do not erect your shed in windy conditions, ensure that the shed is

securely anchored to a solid foundation immediately after construction is

completed.

· It is highly recommended to erect the shed with two or more people.

TOOLS REQUIRED

Normal: 4mm & 10mm

OPTIONAL

SITE PREPARATION

Masonry: 10mm

· The site for the shed must be level. An uneven surface may result in misalignment of

parts.

· It is recommended that the shed be set on a 100mm concrete slab and anchored down

appropriately (refer to last page for details).

· Anchor sets are not supplied as standard items with this product as some customers

wish to use their own anchoring systems.

· Before commencing any assembly, read through these instructions in

detail to gain a thorough understanding of assembly methods and

associated details.

· Unpack the carton and carefully identify and check off all the parts

=

=

STEP 1. Position the channels and the CSJ

joiner channel so the center of the

CSJ is in line with the end of each

channel to be joined together.

STEP 2. Join the first channel to the CSJ by inserting the center

of the CSJ (on an angle) to the end of the channel

where the JOIN>> text is marked. Push down one side

of the CSJ until you hear a 'click'.

STEP 3. Join the second channel to the CSJ

by positioning the <<JOIN end of the

channel at the center of the CSJ

(on an angle). Push the CSJ into

the channel until you here a 'click'.

=

The joined channels should now

look like the picture above with the

CSJ positioned equally inside of the

joined channels.

ABSCO ASSEMBLY INTRODUCTION

FASTENING SYMBOLS

The snaptite assembly system locks most perimeter channels to all roof and wall

sheets without the need for tools and fasteners.

To pre-assemble the four wall panels

and two roof panels, the perimeter

channels are secured to the top and

bottom of each panel using the

snaptite system, as detailed on the

following pages wherever you see

the symbol.

Position sheets on timbers,

trestles or partly over edge of

concrete slab.

Each perimeter channel must finish flush with the

edges of the sheets.The snaptite system allows

adjustment for this process by simply tapping the

channel along the sheets until each end is neatly

flush. If you need to remove channels from the

panels, pull the channel along the panel from

opposing ends. You may need someone to help

with this.

Join components together with one screw at this

location only, as some channel sections have extra

holes that are not required for this model of garden

shed

Do not join components together at this location yet,

as the screw may obstruct further assembly of other

components

After joining sheets together, position channel over one end of the sheets, gently

tapping it over the snaptite lugs, working along the sheets to the other end.
