Before you begin, take time to complete this check list.

Take inventory of all parts using the parts list at the back of this manual on

pages 68-78. The base kit parts list is at the front on page 12 and 13. The back

door transformation kit parts list is on page 78.

Be cautious where you place the polycarbonate panels as they will burn grass

or plants if left on top of them in direct sunlight. Note that clear ﬁlm side of

panels should always face the sun and white ﬁlm side faces inside green-

house. Panels may scratch easily so be careful what you clean them with.

Plan out when and where you are going to place the greenhouse, we recom-

mend that you place it in an area that will receive direct sunlight and will be

protected from the wind as much as possible

It will take at least (2) people to put the greenhouse together.

Before your build, make sure you are allowed to build it! Consult all building

codes, as well as City or Municipality ordinances and HOA’s, as you may need

a permit or documentation before you build.

Contact your insurance company to make sure your Grandio Greenhouse will

be covered on your policy.

Call your local utilities companies before digging.

Do not attempt to begin construction on a windy day, plan to complete

assembly in one day. Damage caused by incomplete assembly is not covered

by warranty.

Your greenhouse should be built on a ﬂat level surface allowing for drainage.

Read this entire manual to get familiar with all pieces and parts prior to

beginning assembly. Follow the steps outlined in the order presented!

Save this owner’s manual for future

reference and if you need our help.

IMPORTANT! SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE WARNINGS MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR

PROPERTY DAMAGE AND WILL VOID WARRANTY.

To ensure safety, do not attempt to assemble this product without following the instructions carefully. Check entire box and

inside all packing material for parts and/or additional instruction materials. Before beginning assembly, read the instruc-

tions and identify all parts using the hardware identiﬁer and parts list on pages 68-78. Complete assembly and

proper usage are essential to reduce the risk of accident or injury when using your Grandio Greenhouse.

CAUTION: Do not leave polycarbonate panels laying on grass or leave in the sun or extreme heat, keep in a cool

dry place until they are to be installed!! (May cause burning to plants or grass if left directly on top of them, also may

damage panels due to the protective lm adhering to panels.) Panels may scratch easily. Do Not use solvent cleaners.

• Each of the polycarbonate panels have a clear lm side that should always face the sun, and a white lm side which faces inside.

The clear side has a UV coating and we recommend marking a small “x”on a corner of each panel to determine which side has the

UV Coating as you cannot visually determine with your eye in the case of future disassembly.

• Due to shipping, the grooves of some of the aluminum proles may be too small to insert into the polycarbonate sheet, you may

carefully use a screwdriver to pry the framework open so the polycarbonate sheet can be inserted smoothly.

• Do not use or store hot objects such as grills, blow torches, welding equipment, etc. in or near your greenhouse.

• Do not allow children or pets to play in greenhouse or in the set up area until assembly is complete.

• If using a ladder during assembly, use extreme caution.

• A clean level surface is essential to maintaining the solid integrity of the structure, Install the base correctly as described in

manual. Please anchor the greenhouse down to a rm and level base. If not properly installed warranty may be void.

NEEDED FOR ASSEMBLY

• Tape Measure • 2 Step Ladders • Safety Glasses
