Operating rules
2. In winter, coverage of
greenhouseshould not be removed
provided that snow load is limited.
Should greenhouse be unattended
all winter period, buyer should either
remove the coverage or estimate
possible snow load. Ultimate load for
the frame having complete package
with installed drawbars and side
braces appears under 360 kg snow
cover per 1 m2 of horizontal ground
surface corresponding to 1.8 m
fresh snow layer or 0.9 m packed
snow layer. Recommended 4 mm
depth of polycarbonate is enough for
Russian midland. In case of regions
Do not install greenhouse close to
buildings and trees from which snow or
ice can fall down. Minimal 2 m distance
is recommended.
with snow cover exceeding 0.6 m,
thicker polycarbonate should be used
for coverage of greenhouse top in
accordance with local conditions.
Maximum wind pressure for this
greenhouse is 25m/sec
Cleaning and washing sheets of polycarbonate.
1. Rinse the sheet with warm water.
2. Wash the sheet with a solution of soft soap or with a domestic detergent and
warm water, using a soft rag or a sponge to take away the dirt.

By disinfection of the greenhouse from fungus and biological diseases
pathogens do not use “sulphuric sticks”
When cleaning polycarbonate sheets never use abrasives or high-alkali
cleaning compositions. Dry wiping of the surface can damage the protective
layer and reduce its life cycle. Never use brushes, gauze fabric or other
abrasive materials to wipe the surface of polycarbonate sheets.

Manual
Installation manual for Greenhouse ARROW
General view of the frame is given in Picture 1 . Parts should be installed in
such a way that side selves of the profile are facing the surface cover. The
frame is assembled of numbered parts.
Symbols:
-arrow shows the direction of
installation as per schemes in the
manual.
Parts are fastened by putting profiles together and fastening them with
screws and nuts through the holes. When joining parts in “profile-to-
profile” way it does not matter which of the joined parts is above.
When assembling be careful not to damage the parts as they do not
have sufficient endurance before the whole structure is assembled. Use
supports (e.g. chairs) at interim stages of assembly to make sure the frame
is lifted steadily and evenly. To make sure holes coincide when assembling
complicated joints, use a 5 mm thick nail or a cone-shaped hand-punch.
1.
2.
3.
4.
Some parts may have spare
holes which are there due to
uniformity of parts.
introduction
Be careful when assembling the greenhouse! Parts have sharp edges.
Beware of cuts! Perform all works in protective gloves.
When assembling the frame parts should be joined through all holes
as prescribed. A simplified fastening of parts with only one or two
screws is the violation of assembly rules and the ground to relieve the
manufacturer of the warranty responsibility.

Level the frame using filling or deepening of pits to make longitudinal elements straight,
horizontal and parallel to each other and to make arcs even at side view. If arc planes
require leveling, loosen connections of balks with arcs, complete leveling on the ground
and tight screws again. Fill frame supports with soil after fastening bottom wire bandages
on element 3 (Pic.10)
Perform the installation close to location of the greenhouse.
Install greenhouse in accordance with photographs of installation stages and units
represented in Pic. 5…12. The figures show installation of greenhouse of 4 m length.
Required length is reached using attachment of appropriate number of Insert
packages. Use M5x10 screws for connection of elements.
Dig pits on the site selected for greenhouse installation at a depth of shovel blade
according to Pic. 4 Install frame into the pits. Check equality of frame diagonals using
a cord. Total draft of greenhouse into the ground should be so that bottom elements 6
of door opening touch the ground. Check equality of the diagonals using a cord again
and correct position of the frame angles.
