For further assistance please visit our detailed instructional video library at Http://www.abscosheds.com.au/watch-videos At ABSCO Industries we are always looking to be number ONE, so please let us know what you think of our instructions. Feedback makes us better. feedback@absco.com.au PAGE
GENERAL Before commencing any assembly, read through these instructions in detail to gain a thorough understanding of assembly methods and associated details. Unpack the carton and carefully identify and check off all the parts against the parts described and illustrated on the following pages. Local Authority approval must be obtained prior to construction of the shed. Once you have selected your site you will need to lodge a site plan to your local council SITE PREPARATION The site for the shed must be level. An uneven surface may result in misalignment of parts. It is recommended that the shed be set on a 00mm rebated concrete slab and anchored down appropriately (refer to last page for details). A flat slab with a chamfered edge can be used but will not result in optimum results. IF USING A REBATE ENSURE ALL FRAME UPRIGHTS ARE TRIMMED 25mm. Anchor sets are not supplied as standard items with this product as some customers wish to use their own anchoring systems. TOOLS REQUIRED OPTIONAL Normal: 3mm Normal: 4mm & 0mm Masonry: 0mm A NOTE ON SAFETY Some parts may have sharp edges. It is advisable to wear gloves when handling these items and safety glasses if drilling holes. Sensible shoes are highly recommended. Do not erect your shed in windy conditions, ensure that the shed is securely anchored to a solid foundation immediately after construction is completed. It is highly recommended to erect the shed with two or more people. PAGE 2

ABSCO ASSEMBLY INTRODUCTION The snap-tite assembly system locks most perimeter channels to all roof and wall sheets without the need for tools and fasteners. SNAP T TE i SNAP T TE To pre-assemble the four wall panels and two roof panels, the perimeter channels are secured to the top and bottom of each panel using the snaptite system, as detailed on the following pages wherever you see the symbol. SNAP T TE i i HIGH SIDE PUSH HIGH SIDE HIGH SIDE HIGH SIDE PUSH After joining sheets together, position channel over one end of the sheets, gently tapping it over the snaptite lugs, working along the sheets to the other end. Position sheets on timbers, trestles or partly over edge of concrete slab. FASTENING SYMBOLS D PUSH HIGH SIDE Join components together by pre-drilling the holes first. Use one component as a template to mark where the holes are. Drill with 3mm drill bit. Join components together with one screw at this location only, as some channel sections have extra holes that are not required for this model of garden shed Do not join components together at this location yet, as the screw may obstruct further assembly of other components Each perimeter channel must finish flush with the edges of the sheets. the snap-tite system allows adjustment for this process by simply tapping the channel along the sheets until each end is neatly flush. If you need to remove channels from the panels, pull the channel along the panel from opposing ends. You may need someone to help with this. 3mm POP RIVETS 4mm NUT & BOLT SET SELF DRILLING TEK SCREW FOR JOINING FRONT AND CENTRE FRAME COMPONENTS PAGE 7
JOINING WALL & ROOF PANELS THE 2253mm LONG PANELS NOW NEED TO BE JOINED TOGETHER, TO MAKE ONE CONTINUOUS PANEL, FOR EACH ROOF AND WALL SECTION. THE PERIMETER S WILL HAVE TO BE REDUCED IN LENGTH EQUAL TO THE AMOUNT OF THE OVERLAP, AS SHOWN BELOW. 6.5 6.5 TRIM THE PERIMETER S BY 6.5mm TO ALLOW EDGE RIBS OF THE SHEETING TO BE OVERLAPPED. OVERLAP THE PANELS AND SECURE WITH SCREWS AS SHOWN. REFER TO THE PANEL CONSTRUCTION SECTION OF THIS INSTRUCTION FOR FURTHER DETAILS, AND ENSURE THAT THE PANELS ARE NOT JOINED TOGETHER WITH PRE-PUNCHED HOLES INCORRECTLY POSITIONED. THE OVERALL LENGTH OF EACH PANEL SHOULD BE THE SAME LENGTH AS THE RIDGE BEAM, WHICH IS 4473mm. RIDGE BEAM/PANEL LENGTH = 2253 LESS CUT OFF SECTION = 6.5 NEW LENGTH = 2236.5 TWO PANELS JOINED: 2236.5 X 2 = 4473mm IT IS NOT CRITICAL THAT THE OVERALL LENGTH OF 4473mm IS EXACT, BUT TRY AND MAINTAIN THE LENGTH WITHIN 5mm.

ABSCO SHEDS - STORAGE GUIDELINES ABSCO SHEDS include garden sheds, garden beds, storage units, aviaries, garages, awnings and carports. ABSCO SHEDS are designed to be weatherproof for normal weather conditions. In the event of extreme weather conditions such as heavy rain, combined with high wind gusts, the ridge capping, sheeting joins, screw fixings etc., may exhibit minor deformations which may allow some water entry. These areas should be checked regularly to ensure that maximum strength and protection is maintained. Other weather conditions such as extreme heat and extreme cold, moist or dry air can influence the effects of concrete floor moisture and/or condensation on the underside of the roof sheets. ABSCO SHEDS and storage units are primarily used for storage of garden equipment such as lawnmowers, wheelbarrows, garden tools etc. Storage items that might be adversely affected by any of the above conditions may require additional protection such as being sealed or covered by plastic sheets and/or stacked above the concrete floor on timber slats. Waterproof sealants may be used to offer further protection where required around joins and screw fixings, as can rubber door seals and other products which are available from most hardware outlets. Placement of waterproof sealants (silicone) between the base of the shed and concrete slab is not recommended, as this process can have a reverse effect, preventing excess water from escaping, resulting with water accumulating and being trapped inside the shed. Absco accepts no responsibility for water entry, floor moisture, condensation or the condition of the Contents inside your Absco steel building arising from any of the pre-mentioned weather conditions. 2 P a g e
