POSITIONING AND INSTALLATION OF THE GARAGE

POSITIONING THE GARAGE This garage is a temporary structure and is not recommended as a permanent building. It is designed to offer protection from sun, rain, light snow, tree sap and bird droppings etc. It is not designed to shelter equipment from excessively high winds or heavy snow.

Choose your garage location carefully. Check for overhead power lines, tree branches, etc. DO NOT install near roofs or other structures that may shed snow, ice or excessive run-off onto your garage.

SITING THE GARAGE Erect your garage on level ground. The garage should be erected over a firm, level area but with enough space near each corner for the ground anchors and tie-down straps to be used as intended. If the ground area is of tarmac or concrete, the use of ground anchor holding-down bolts will be required to anchor the garage to the floor.

Choose a dry location where dampness arising from ground water in the environment will not undermine the protection offer by the garage.

Ideally, a masonry floor such as block paving or concrete is deal, but if this is not being supplied, a timber or shuttering plywood floor, protected by a suitable groundsheet should be used. This will help to create a dry storage environment by insulating the garage storage space from ground moisture.

Proper anchoring and keeping the cover tight and free of snow and debris is the responsibility of the user. Damage caused by improper anchoring is not covered under warranty.

CARE OF THE GARAGE STRUCTURE

This garage is NOT designed to support heavy snow. Snow or ice accumulation may cause your garage to collapse. To avoid overload, brush snow and ice off the roof top with a broom or mop to prevent collapse with the resultant damage to property or personal injury.

NEVER clear the roof of snow or debris from inside the garage.

DO NOT use hard-edged tools or instruments, such as rakes or shovels to remove snow. These can cause punctures to the cover.

DO NOT use bleach, alkaline or harsh detergents for cleaning. Doing so will damage the material. Soap and warm water are recommended.

In order to reduce risk of burning and avoid damage, DO NOT- cook, smoke, refuel or use any open flame devices in or around the garage.

USING THE STORAGE SPACE

Never run the engine of any vehicle or machine inside a closed garage. Ensure that there is adequate ventilation for engines or for any work with paints, cleaners. etc. by opening the door panel and keeping it raised as shown in diagram M on page 13.

CONDENSATION Take steps to avoid the buildup of condensation inside the garage. Cool, damp winter days and moisture from the breath and body heat of personnel may cause condensation on the inside of the top cover of the garage.

A supply of fresh air through the doorway will at least partly remove this issue.

For long term storage of moisture sensitive belongings in all weathers, the use of a Dehumidifier may be required, such as those in the Clarke range. A suitable extension lead to a locally available power supply will be required. Condensation will be much less of an issue during the summer months.

If storing a vehicle in your garage over the winter months we recommend the use of a secondary lightweight cover over your vehicle.

CONSTRUCTION Have an overview of all parts before attempting installation and make sure all components are supplied.

STEP 4: SQUARE AND ANCHOR THE FRAMES

1. Check the measurements of the frame are 10 at both the front and back corners, as well as across the center.

2. Take a diagonal measurement as shown in Diagram F. When these two measures are equal the frame is square. Adjust the frame until they are equal to within 1".

3. Once equal, check the width measurement again to ensure all widths are equal at 10'.

4. Next, install the anchors (Parts #16, #17 & #18) at the 4 corner bent legs by screwing the removable anchor (#16) into the ground on the inside of the garage.

5. Secure with cable (#17) and cable clamp (#18) (as shown in Diagram G).

Ensure the clamps a gripping the cable tightly.

WARNING: SERIOUS INJURY TO PERSONS OR PROPERTY COULD RESULT IF THE GARAGE IS NOT SECURELY ANCHORED, WITH EITHER THE GROUND ANCHORS SUPPLIED OR IF SITED ON CONCRETE OR TARMAC USE SUITABLE SUBSTANTIAL GROUND ANCHOR BOLTS.

STEP 5: INSTALLING THE FRONT AND BACK COVERS The front cover has a zippered door to allow entry to the garage. Be sure to locate this cover at the desired end and ensure the zipper is in the closed position while installing.

The back cover is a solid piece of polyethylene.

The covers are installed in the same fashion.

1. Thread the strap through the spindle of the ratchet to make sure the strap will stay in the sleeve when assembled, Raise and lower the handle two or three times to wind the strap onto the spindle (as shown in Diagram H).

2. Begin with the front cover and first locate the webbed belt that runs around the perimeter at the cover.

The webbing is exposed at the peak, the shoulders and the feet of the cover.

4. Slip the webbing strap between tube #5 and the connector (as shown in Diagram I). Rejoin the tubes.

5. Repeat this step for the opposite shoulder.

6. Move to the apex of the garage using a step ladder and using a rubber mallet, disconnect the apex tube (#4a) from the connector (#12). Slip the webbing strap between the tubes (see Diagram I detail 2) and reconnect.

7. While one person remains on the steps and standing at the peak of the garage, the other person inserts the hook of the ratchet straps into both sides of corner legs at (detail I-3).

The person standing at the apex assists by ensuring the cover is partially folded over the tubes of the end frame and inside or toward the interior of the garage.

The other person makes sure the door panel is flat and then tightens the ratchet straps. (Diagram I detail 3).

STEP 6: INSTALLING THE MAIN COVER 1. Lay the cover on the

ground next to the frame with inside of the cover (the side with pipe pockets) facing upward and the webbing on the front and rear of the corner of the building.

2. Tie one end of a rope to the eyelets on one corner of the cover, then another rope to the other corner eyelets.

3. Pull the cover over the frame with the help of the rope as in Diagram J, making sure to center the cover on the frame. There should be an equal amount overhanging at all four corners.

P

Assemble the ratchet straps (Part #29) to the web ends on the four corners of

the cover, one for each corner. Ratchet a few times to tighten the strap.

4. Insert the S- hook on ratchet strap into the hole on the Bent Corner Leg. Wind the ratchet so that the webbing overlaps itself. Slide through the fabric pockets at each leg and reattach with clamps to each leg. Repeat this on the other side. Push down on the cover rails to tighten the cover before tightening the bolts completely.

5. When the cover rails are all secured, proceed to the four corners and tighten the end covers to the end frames with the ratchet action.

NOTE: Over-tightening can cause damage to straps and/or the anchor point.

DO NOT over-tighten)

Note: Check periodically (two to three times in the first week and tighten ratchet tie-downs and all hardware as needed. Monthly inspection is recommended throughout usage. The shelter is now ready for use..

WARNING: IF POSITIONING THE SHED IN A WINDY LOCATION ALWAYS ENSURE THE FRONT DOOR IS KEPT FULLY CLOSED TO PREVENT WIND LIFTING THE SHED FROM INSIDE.

DISASSEMBLY When disassembling the garage depress the spring-loaded bar to disengage the ratchet and open the ratchet handle completely to allow the webbing strap to pull through.

PLEASE RE-READ ALL WARNINGS CONTAINED ON PAGE 2/3 OF THESE INSTRUCTIONS. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE USE.

To dismantle, execute all instructions in reverse order.

Store your garage in a cool, dry location between seasons to prolong the usable life of all components. Components are not equally durable and will require replacement over time at differing intervals.

ADDITIONAL ANCHORING Please note that when the instant garage or shed is to be sited on soft ground an additional, or alternative method of anchoring may be required.

This can take the form of an additional Auger Securing Set GA1 (already supplied with Clarke instant garages), which can add greater security for exposed, windy locations. Alternatively the Easy Hook Anchoring System GHA2, can be used to provide greater security on soft ground. Available from

your Clarke dealer.
