Prior to assembly
Please go through the whole instruction manual completely. It is very important to
follow your local safety regulations and industry standards during installation.
Regulations may include but are not limited to :
•Safety helmets, protective eyewear, and clothing
•Safety harnesses for all elevated workers
•Proper ladder, cage, and safety operation
Check all components and parts before installation. All parts are marked with a part
number, please refer to the parts list to ensure you have all parts.
Choose a day with low or no wind to install, it is hard to assemble with heavy wind.
Do not make any alterations to the structure. Do not hang any weight on the frame
during installation, including parts. We are not responsible for any damages or injuries
caused by inappropriate installation, unauthorized modifications or extreme weather.
This building is not intended for human occupancy.
It is recommended to use heavy duty duct tapes to tape the tube connection joint spots to
protect the cover from damage and worn. It will help to extend the cover life span.
Check the parts list below to make sure all parts are received prior to assembly.

Installation steps
Step 1 : Review the whole structure and choose the proper installation site.
Choose a solid level ground area to set up the building. Do not install in an area where the
floor is soft, a wetland, can not take the weight, or keep the building steady.
We strongly recommend to install the building on a concrete foundation with all expansion
bolts to secure all baseplates. Do not use any anchor spikes!
Watch the surroundings! Do not set up the building near any snowdrifts. The fabric cover
can hold up a certain amount of falling leaves, light debris and wind resistance, however,
large, fast or sharp falling items and big wind might punch or tear the fabric materials. Keep
the building surroundings clear to avoid potential damages.
Be careful with power and heat sources. Do not keep heat sources near the cover. Do not
expose the building to open flame.
 Review the whole frame structure diagram as shown in figure 1, decide the door
position, and make sure you will have about 3 ft clearance around the building.
 Draw a rectangular square base line showing all positions of base plates and front
doors. The diagonal X and Y must be equal.
 Baseplates : all baseplates must be bolted firmly with expansion bolts #7B. It is
concrete expansion bolt.
 Baseplate installation is as below and all baseplates are required to install and tie
firmed on this step. ( refer to figure 1)

▶W W W . T M G I N D U ST R I A L . C O M P 10/19 T o l l F r e e : 1 - 877- 7 6 1 - 2 8 1 9
 Lay down all (9) trusses on the ground when the assembly is all completed and
before moving to next step, and scratch resistant tape (#22) around the sharp
points of the joint to avoid friction between the fabric and the interface,
resulting in fabric damage. (refer to figure 5)

Step 4 : Put up the front truss.
Put up the front truss: use a crane is the best and safest way, otherwise pull with
ropes is another option, but you have to make sure it is safe, and you have enough
manpower. We recommend 4 to 6 people to pull the truss up from different
directions. When the truss is up, tie the ropes to the heavy objects to make sure the
truss will stay upright steady, and strengthened bolt (#24) to connect the truss to
the base plate. (refer to figure 6)
Parts used in this step : (8) Strengthened bolt (#24)

▶W W W . T M G I N D U ST R I A L . C O M P 12/19 T o l l F r e e : 1 - 877- 7 6 1 - 2 8 1 9
Step 5 : Put up the rest trusses.
Refer to Step 4 to put up the rest trusses, connect all purlins (#5) with bolt (#23) and
secure all bolts firmly on each span before going to next truss. (refer to figure 7)

Repeat above step to put up all other trusses (from 3rd to 9th truss), and connect all
purlins. Now the whole structure is completely up. (refer to figure 8)

Tension cable installation: All cables are diagonally installed on each side of the
interval as figure 9.

•(33) Ridge steel tension cables (#17)
•(31) Cable connection plate (#19)

▶W W W . T M G I N D U ST R I A L . C O M P 15/19 T o l l F r e e : 1 - 877- 7 6 1 - 2 8 1 9
The whole structure inspection: check all components and trusses to make sure
the whole structure is squared to the base line drawn at the step 1. All trusses
must be set up righted at 90 degree. All purlins must be straight inline. If any
purlins are not in line with they will need to be corrected before moving to the
next step.
Now it is the time to secure all bolts and nuts firmed on the structure. But do not
over-tight the bolts, otherwise the tubes might be damaged.
Step 6 : Front and rear trusses to complete.
Install all other tubes on the front and rear trusses as below figure 10 :

•(3x2) Lower vertical tubes (#8A)
•(2x2) Left and right upper vertical tubes (#9)

Step 7 : Install front and rear cover panels.
Lift up (#30) cover panels, starting from the center point of the frame (highest ridge
point) use ropes (#28) through the grommets to tie the panel to the truss firmly. All
grommets need to be tied to the frame as shown in figure 11.

▶W W W . T M G I N D U ST R I A L . C O M P 17/19 T o l l F r e e : 1 - 877- 7 6 1 - 2 8 1 9
Step 8 : Install roof cover (#29).
NOTE : The cover must be installed on a windless day. DO NOT attempt to install the
cover during windy conditions.
As shown on figure 12, when you are ready to install the roof cover, unpack the cover
and position it parallel to the building frame on one side.
The cover must be pulled over the top of the truss frame without being snagged or
stressed on any frame members.
Use multiple ropes over the top of the frame as shown in figure12.Having a couple of
people inside of the structure with a ladder to assist to push upwards would help the
cover to be pulled over smoothly without any damage.

▶W W W . T M G I N D U ST R I A L . C O M P 18/19 T o l l F r e e : 1 - 877- 7 6 1 - 2 8 1 9
Step 9 : Tension the cover on the frame from side to side (Figure 13).
After the cover is installed on the roof, insert the plastic pipe #31slowly into the
grooves on two ends of the cover (not two sides), and then insert tension tubes
(#13) in the groove on both sides of the cover bottom, Add the water plug (#20)
on the 1st tube (#13) to protect the fabric while the tube is going through and
add the water plug on the last tube also to keep water away.
Stretch and adjust the cover from left and right, back and forth, to make sure it is
square and centered. Cut the grooves from inner side facing to the ratchet
hardware #7A, and add tie down straps #18 to pull the tension tube and tie the
strap to the base.
Evenly adjust the ratchets on both sides of the cover to take wrinkles out and
make the cover flat and smooth. Do not fully tie the cover yet. Leave adequate
strap so that the cover can also be adjusted front to back in next step.

▶W W W . T M G I N D U ST R I A L . C O M P 19/19 T o l l F r e e : 1 - 877- 7 6 1 - 2 8 1 9
Step 10 : Tighten roof cover on front and rear trusses frames.
Pull and stretch the cover enough only to take wrinkles out. Repeat for the rear
truss. Do not over stretch to rip off the grommets.
After the cover is placed and adjusted evenly across the grommet flap, go back and
re-adjust all ratchets along the side edges. At this point, the roof cover should be
pulled and stretched enough to take all wrinkles out. It is required to repeat this
step 2-3 weeks after the installation is completed and the cover has stretched out
over a certain time period on the frame.
After the Installation
Walk around and inspect the building periodically to make sure all components are
still firmly secured and the whole building is well supported. Check all bolts and nuts
as well as all connection points to make sure they are all in good position. Check the
base plates, adjust the ropes and tie downs if required and clean the cover regularly.
Snow accumulating on the fabric cover must be removed as soon as possible. If snow
becomes solid ice on the cover, it will increase the weight on the roof and collapses
the building or reduce the life span eventually.
Keep the building on a dry ground most of the time. Do not keep the fabric dirt skirt
under water all the time, otherwise the fabric will deteriorate.
We strongly recommend you remove any snow from the roof immediately. Do not
leave any snow load on the roof overnight. Keep 3 feet of clearance on all sides at all
times. Do not allow snow to accumulate and pile up on the sides of the building.
Otherwise the push from the sides toward inside will make the building collapsed at
some point.
