SAFETY & MAINTENANCE
Safety precautions MUST be followed at all times throughout the construction of your building!
Care must be taken when handling
various pieces of your building since
many contain sharp edges. Please
wear work gloves, eye protection and
long sleeves when assembling or
performing any maintenance on your
building.
NEVER concentrate your weight on
the roof of the building. When using
a step ladder make sure that it is
fully open and on even ground before
climbing on it.
Exterior Care:
For a long lasting fi nish, clean and wax the exterior surface. We recommend washing with a mild soap solution. DO NOT use power washing
to clean your shed. Using a spray automotive type wax periodically on the exterior is highly recommended if you are in a high humidity or
coastal climate region.
Combustibles and corrosives must be stored in air tight containers designed for chemical and/or combustible storage. Corrosive chemicals
such as fertilizers, pesticides and herbicides should be cleaned off the interior and exterior surfaces immediately. Rust caused by chemical
damage is not covered by the warranty.
Rust protection precautions may help to stop rust from developing, or stop it quickly as soon as it appears.
• Avoid nicking or scraping the coating surface, inside and out.
• Keep roof and base perimeter free of debris and leaves which may accumulate and retain moisture. These can do double damage since
they give off acid as they decay.
• Touch up scrapes or nicks and any area of visible rust as soon as possible. Make sure the surface is free of moisture, oils, dirt or grime and
then apply an even fi lm of high quality touch-up paint.
• Various paint manufacturers provide products for rust treatment and coverage. If surface rust does appear on your shed we recommend
treating those areas as soon as possible, following the paint supplier of your choice instructions.
• Our customer service department can provide the paint tinting formula for matching the color of your shed. We also have touch-up paint
available for repairing small nicks and scratches.
Roof:
Keep the roof clear of leaves and snow. Heavy amounts of snow on the roof can damage the building making it unsafe to enter.
Fasteners:
Regularly check fasteners and retighten as necessary.
General:
Wash off inked part numbers on coated panels with soap and water.
Please note, Manufacturer cannot be held responsible for any consequences due to buildings that are not installed per these instructions, or
for damage due to weather conditions or acts of God.
Keep these assembly instructions and owner's manual for future reference.
Practice caution with the tools being
used in the assembly of this building.
Be
especially
familiar
operation of all power tools.
Keep children and pets away from the
worksite during construction and until
the building is completely assembled.
This will help avoid distractions and
any accidents which may occur.

Do NOT attempt to assemble your
building on a windy day. The large
with
the
panels can catch the wind like a "sail",
causing them to be whipped around
making
unsafe.
Do NOT attempt to assemble your
building before double checking that
you have all the parts indicated on the
parts list as well as all hardware. Any
building left partially assembled may be
seriously damaged by even light winds.
IMPORTANT NOTE ON
• Your building MUST be anchored to
prevent wind damage. See anchoring
page for more info.
• You must also have a temporary
anchoring system in place in case you
need to take a break from assembly.
