Manual

Dear customers!
After you had decided to purchase a greenhouse you have received a product produced the utmost care.
Its especially strong frame is made of special galvanized metal profiles of 1 mm thickness.
The greenhouse is easy to assembly due to its simple design.
Many different accessories will allow you to implement your ideas.
We reserve the right to make changes and improvements related to technological progress. Due to that
mismatches between descriptions and illustrations may occur.
We wish you a lot of joy and success upon purchase of our greenhouse.
ATTENTION!
When assembling the frame of the greenhouse and working with a coating made of cellular
polycarbonate always wear safety gloves or protective working measures.
To assembly the greenhouse you will need the following tools:
8mm diameter hexagon wrench or an open-end wrench.
A Phillips screwdriver or a battery-powered screwdriver.
A shovel (to dig holes)
A level (to measure flatness of a pad)
Ropes (to measure a diagonal)
Knife (to cut polycarbonate sheets)
Follow local building regulations, if necessary.
If a strong wind or a storm occurs, close windows or doors.
Before starting to assembly the greenhouse you must read all instructions at least once and familiarize
yourselves with separate sections and profiles. It is your important auxiliary means.
Check supply content according to specifications of parts. IF YOU FIND NONCONFORMITIES WITH
THE SPECIFICATION –IMMEDIATELY CONTACT THE SELLER AND NOTIFY HIM ABOUT
SHORTAGE OF PARTS.
Then sort out profiles and put them separately.
When assembling the greenhouse it is recommended to tighten bolts manually at first –not tight in order to
be able to easily move profiles, if necessary. Level the assembled frame of the greenhouse by using the level,
and then tighten the bolts tightly.

INSTALLATION COURSE:
1. Foundation assembly. To assembly the foundation we use the front and the back parts of the foundation
(16) and side parts of the foundation depending on the greenhouse being purchased (13, 14 or 15). All 4 parts
should be connected into a rectangle with the foundation angles (17) by manually tightening loosely these
entire parts with M5-12 bolts (27), M5 nuts (30) (Fig. 1.1-1.5)
Fig. 1.1 Fig. 1.2
Fig. 1.3 Fig. 1.4 Fig. 1.5
Dimensions:
Width 2.35m, length 2.12m (exterior) bars 5 pieces (4.98m2).
Width 2.35m, length 3.17m (exterior) bars 7 pieces (7.45m2).
Width 2.35m, length 2.00m (exterior) bars 4 pieces (extension).
Foundation connection plates (18) are used for extension of the foundation if TITAN Classic 480 greenhouse
length exceeds 2.12 m or 3.17 m. They are fixed from both sides with M5-12 bolts (27), M5 nuts (30) (Fig.
1.6).
If length of the greenhouse is 4.12 m, the foundation is connected as follows: 2.12 m (14) + 2 m extension of
the side of the foundation (15).
If length of the greenhouse is 5.17 m, the foundation is connected as follows: 3.17 m (13) + 2 m extension of
the foundation (15).
If length of the greenhouse is 6.12 m, the foundation is connected as follows: 2.12 m (14) + 2 m extension of
the foundation (15) + 2 m extension of the foundation (15).
If length of the greenhouse is 7.17 m, the foundation is connected as follows: 3.17 m (13) + 2 m extension of
the foundation (15) + 2 m extension of the foundation (15), and etc.

Fig. 1.6
2. Measure the diagonal of the foundation. Lengths of diagonals must be equal. If diagonals are equal, tighten
the bolts of the foundation fully (Fig. 2).
Fig. 2
3. Dig holes (25 cm diameter, 40 cm depth) around the whole perimeter of the foundation near fixing points
made in the foundation in order to dig in side –lower bars (No. 1) (Fig. 3)
2.12 m –5 holes (on the sides)

16. As during assembly of the greenhouse the bolts have been tightened loosely in order to be able to easily
move profiles, if needed, the next step is to adjust the assembled frame of the greenhouse with the level, to
check the diagonal once again, to tighten bolts fully, and only after that to fill up the holes (Fig. 16).
Fig. 16
Be careful not to mix sides of polycarbonate! Fasten it with a set side to the outside, where there is a
UV rays protection layer. UV rays protection layer is coated by a film with inscriptions; another side
(being installed to the inside) is coated by a transparent film. It is recommended to cut sheets with an
electric circular saw, a hand saw with small teeth, a sharp knife, if necessary. Before installation it is
necessary to remove films! SAFETY GLOVES ARE NECESSARY TO WEAR WHEN CUTTING
SHEETS!
17. Upon tightening the frame part of the greenhouse installation of polycarbonate is to be started. Start
fixing polycarbonate sheets from the rear part of the greenhouse. Apply the part of back wall polycarbonate
sheet below window (1020x1230 mm) to the frame on the back side of the greenhouse and tighten it with
M5-40 bolts (29), M5 nuts (30), and gaskets (31). Through connection plates (21) polycarbonate is tightened
with M5-20 bolts (27), M5 nuts (30), and gaskets (31). Then cut polycarbonate near the frame profile with a
sharp knife or a jigsaw, if necessary. Upper polycarbonate channels in the part below window depending on
configuration are sealed by U-profile or breathing strip (34) (Fig. 17.1 –17.4).
Fig. 17.1 Fig. 17.2

Fig. 17.3 Fig. 17.4
18. The side parts of polycarbonate for the back and the front are fixed analogically. We apply the
polycarbonate sheet (700x1950 mm) evenly with an edge of an opening near the door and the back bars and
evenly with the foundation. The polycarbonate sheet is tightened to the bar connection angles (19; 20) and
the polycarbonate connection plates (21) with M5-20 bolts (28), M5 nuts (30), and gaskets (31). The sheet is
tightened to the bars of the rear part of the greenhouse (No. 8) and the bar fixtures (No. 9, No. 10, and No.
11) with M5-40 bolts (29), M5 nuts (30), and gaskets (31). Then cut polycarbonate near the frame profile
with a sharp knife or a jigsaw, if necessary (Fig. 18.1 –18.4).
Fig. 18.1 Fig. 18.2

Fig. 18.3 Fig. 18.4
19. At the front and at the back of the greenhouse above the door and back bar holder (No. 9) polycarbonate-
triangle (400x920 mm) covers by its edges side polycarbonate parts and is tightened to the frame with M5-40
bolts (29), M5 nuts (30), and gaskets (31), and to bar connection angles - with M5-20 bolts (28), M5 nuts
(30), and gaskets (31). Then cut polycarbonate near the frame profile with a sharp knife or a jigsaw, if
necessary (Fig. 19.1 –19.2).
Fig. 19.1 Fig. 19.2
20. Apply sealing rubber (36) on the top of channels of side polycarbonate sheets at the top and on the sides
of the front and the rear parts of the greenhouse, and only after that put side and upper parts of polycarbonate
(Fig. 20.1 –20.5).
Fig. 20.1 Fig. 20.2 Fig. 20.3

Fig. 20.4 Fig. 20.5
21. Wall covering installation. 1050x1485 mm and/or 980x1485 mm (extending sheets) polycarbonate sheets
are used to cover the walls.
Sheet arrangement side view (for walls and roof):
2.12 m length: 1.05+1.05 m (Fig. 21.1)
3.17 m length: 1.05+1.05+1.05 (Fig. 21.2)
4.12 m length: 1.05+0.985+0.985+1.05 m (Fig. 21.3)
5.17 m length: 1.05+1.05+0.985+0.985+1.05 m (Fig. 21.4)
6.12 m length: 1.05+0.985+0.985+0.985+0.985+1.05 m (Fig. 21.5), and etc. €

The sheets are connected to each other by connecting H-profiles (32), which are tightened to the 3rd bar (for
the greenhouse of 2.12 m length) from one and another side of the greenhouse by their flat part with M5-40
bolts (29), M5 nuts (30), and gaskets (31). The holes made in the H-profile must match the holes made in the
frame. If the greenhouse is longer than 2.12 m, the H-profiles are to be tightened to the bars as follows,
starting from the front of the greenhouse:
3.17 m 3rd and 5th bars
4.12 m 3rd, 5th, and 7th bars
5.17 m 3rd, 5th, 7th, and 9th bars, and etc.
ATTENTION! Remove the protective film from the connecting profiles, if any!
Fig. 21.6 Fig. 21.7
To cover the walls of 4.12 m length TITAN Classic 480 greenhouse 2 sheets of 1050x1485 mm and 2 sheets
of 985x1485 mm are needed. The sheets are inserted into the connecting H-profiles downward from the top.
Polycarbonate edges at the front and at the back must overhang up to the edge of the foundation. The sheets
are tightened to the frame with M5-40 bolts (29), M5 nuts (30), and gaskets (31) (Fig. 21.8 –21.11).
Fig. 21.8 Fig. 21.9 Fig. 21.10 Fig. 21.11
A plate protection tape or flexible ending U-profiles (34) are applied to the upper end of these sheets. The
bottom ends of the sheets are to be left open (21.12 –21.13).

Fig. 21.12 Fig. 21.13
22. Polycarbonate roofing installation. 1050x1485 mm and/or 980x1485 mm (extending sheets)
polycarbonate sheets are used for roofing.
The sheets are connected to each other by connecting H-profiles (33), which are tightened to the 3rd bar (for
the greenhouse of 2.12 m length) from one and another side of the greenhouse by their flat part with M5-40
bolts (29), M5 nuts (30), and gaskets (31). The holes made in the H-profile must match the holes made in the
frame. If the greenhouse is longer than 2.12 m, the H-profiles are to be tightened to the bars as follows,
starting from the front of the greenhouse:
3.17 m 3rd and 5th bars
4.12 m 3rd, 5th, and 7th bars
5.17 m 3rd, 5th, 7th, and 9th bars, and etc.
ATTENTION! Remove the protective film from the connecting profiles, if any!
Fig. 22.1
For instance, to cover the roof of 4.12 m length TITAN Classic 480 greenhouse 2 sheets of 1050x1485 mm
and 985x1485 mm (2 sheets) are needed. The sheets are inserted into the connecting H-profiles upward from
the bottom. Polycarbonate edges at the front and at the back must overhang up to the edge of the foundation.
The sheets are tightened to the frame with M5-40 bolts (29), M5 nuts (30), and gaskets (31) (Fig. 21.8 –
21.11).

Fig. 22.2 Fig. 22.3
The upper ends of the sheets fit into the ridge (22; 23). Ending F-profiles, which are fixed by F-profile
holders (38), are put onto the lower ends of the sheets (39; 40, and 41) (Fig. 22.4 –22.7). The holders are
tightened to the frame with M5-40 bolts (29), M5 nuts (30), and gaskets (31).
