Instructions / Assembly
t Please read these Assembly Instructions completely before assembly and keep them in your records so you
can refer to them if you wish to add options or make repairs.
t The instructions in this manual lead you through each step in the assembly process. It is important for you to
follow them closely.
t We recommend that you use gloves during assembly.
t Hobby Gardener is not responsible for the misuse of tools or parts.
t If local building codes require permits or licenses make sure that they are acquired before beginning.
t Your Greenhouse should be secure ly anchored to the prepared foundation using the recommended hardware.
t If you prepare a concrete foundation do not ex cavate and pour concrete in frozen ground.
t Exercise caution when lifting heavy assemblies.
t Do not attempt to assemble your Greenhouse in high winds.
t We recommend that you place your Greenhouse in a spot where it will receive direct sunlight and will be
protected from the wind as much as possible. The door should not face prevailing winds.
t When your Greenhouse is fully assembled examine it for sharp edges and trim with a razor knife if necessary.
t Close all roof vents in high winds.
t It is important to clear your Greenhouse of snow in the winter.
t If you live in a hot climate, where outside temperatures exceed 46° C (115° F) in the sun or 36° C (99° F) in the
shade, this may cause the temperature inside the greenhouse
to exceed 55° C (131° F). Such conditions may
harm your plants and will damage the greenhouse by warping structural proles. In order to prevent damage:
t Ensure good ventilation during hot days.
t Make sure that the temperature inside the green house never exceeds 55° C (131° F) by providing a shading
screen, such as the Shade Net (available as an accessories option).
Note: Hobby Gardener is not responsible for any damage due to high temperatures.
Important: Make sure that you check the contents of the greenhouse packaging against the packing
list and the required parts for your model on page 4 and following. Do not begin assembly if any parts
