Assembly and Maintenance Advice
1. For safety purposes, we strongly recommend that this product is assembled by at least
two people.
2. Some components have sharp metal edges. Please be careful when handling metal
components. Please wear gloves, shoes and safety goggles during assembly.
3. Lay all of the components on a soft carpet or blanket to avoid any scratches or damages.
4. DO NOT climb or stand on the roof. Heavy articles should not be leaned against
the greenhouse.
5. Keep the roof and gutter clear of snow, dirt & leaves. Allowing snow to build up on
the roof may damage the product.
6. Unlike steel, if the paint finish is scratched this will not harm the aluminium underneath.
7. When your product needs cleaning, use a mild detergent solution and rinse with cold
clean water. Do not use acetone, abrasive cleaners or strong detergents to clean
the panels.

Functions and Features:
1. The strong two part eaves beam includes an integral gutter. Downpipes are also included
as standard so you can collect rainwater.
Automatic Opener
GM80001
Manual Opener
2. Manual window handles are included as standard with the roof vents. If required,
automatic roof vent openers are available as an inexpensive optional extra.
GM80001 is sold separately
3. Remove approximately 2 inches of film from all sheet edges before installing and remove
all film immediately after the construction is completed. Please ensure that the side
with the white film faces outwards.
4. This quality greenhouse features self-tapping screws to provide strong joints. As the name
suggests, the screws tap their own thread. Driving in self-tapping screws requires more
force than conventional screws. A powered screwdriver is therefore recommended.
