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
