SITE PREPARATION
Excavate a 30cm square hole (approx)
for each post to a depth of at least
30cm. (see Fig.A right)
This will give your structure adequate
stability.
1. Begin with the roof assembly.
2. Mark off five points along the length of each of the curved
beams where the rafters will be fitted (see Fig.1). It is
recommended that the centre is marked first (1) and theother
points measured from it.
3. Fix the rafters to the curved
beams using screws (w)
from the topside of the
rafters into the curved beams.
4. Use the Trellis Sections (C)
to mark where the Metal
Brackets (z)need to be
fitted to the posts. The
metal brackets should be
positioned so that they fit
into the corners of the trellis.
The top brackets should
be 100mm below the
shoulder at the top of
the post (see Fig.2).

30cm
5. Fit the trellis to the
metal brackets
using screws (y).
NB.Check the posts
are the correct way
around so that they fit
inside the roof curved
beams (see Fig.3).
6. Fit the roof assembly onto the
posts of the side assemblies and
fix at the desired position with
screws (x).
Make sure the overhang at each
end is the same.
