ASSEMBLY
To ensure longevity of your structure it is recommended
that it is treated with a wood preservative on a yearly basis.
AFTERCARE
1. The Structure is spaced to allow standard Grange
panels to be inserted, if preferred, to provide a
screen. The distance between each of the posts is
therefore 183cm (see Fig.1)
2. It is advisable to mark each of the Rafters (B),
used as supports, where the roof rafters will be
fixed, before beginning assembly. For the
suggested spacing see Fig.2.
3. Decide on the orientation of the structure.
4. Position two of the Posts (A)to enable one of the
Rafters, previously marked, to be fitted. Ensure
the distance between the two Posts is set at
183cm before fixing the rafter in position with
screws (x).
5. Repeat step 4 for the second pair of Posts.
6. Using one of the remaining Rafters, fix it at one of
the end points on one of the assemblies, using
the Metal Brackets (z)as Fig.3.
7. Then fix the other end of the Rafter to the other
assembly at the corresponding point.
8. Repeat steps 6 & 7 at the opposite end of the
structure so that it is able to stand upright.
Ensure itis level and upright by adjusting posts.
9. When this has been carried out, the remaining
Rafters may be fixed using the Metal Brackets at
the positions previously marked.
10. Re-check that the structure is level and upright.
(see Fig.4)before fixing the posts permanently.
