Owner's Manual

Before beginning construction, check local building codes regarding footings, location

and other requirements. Study and understand this owner's manual.

Important information and helpful tips will make your construction easier and more

enjoyable.

Assembly Instructions: Instructions are supplied in this manual and contain all

appropriate information for your building model. Review all instructions before you begin,

and during assembly, follow the step sequence carefully for correct results.

Foundation andAnchoring:Yourstoragebuilding must be anchored to preventwind

damage.A foundation is also necessary as a base in order to construct a square and level

building. Anchoring and foundation materials are not included with your building. We

recommend the combined use of an Arrow Floor Foundation Kit and an Arrow

Anchoring Kit as an effective method of securing your building to the ground (Available

by mail order or at your local dealer) or you may construct the foundation and anchoring

system of your choice.Your assembly instructions provide information on a few methods

commonly used to secure and level a storage building.

Parts and Parts List: Check to be sure that you have all the necessary parts for your

building.

•All part numbers can be found on the parts. All of these numbers (before the -) must agree with the

numbers on the parts list. The parts list is located on page 12.

•If you find that a part is missing, include the model number of your building and contact:

Arrow Group Industries, Inc. Customer Service Department

Route 50 East Breese, Illinois 62230

1-800-851-1085

•Separate contents of the carton by the part number while reviewing parts list. The first few steps

show how to join related parts to make larger sub assemblies which will be used later.

•Familiarize yourself with the hardware and fasteners for easier use during construction. These are

packaged within the carton. Note that extra fasteners have been supplied for your convenience.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN....

Selecting and Preparing Your Site: Before assembly, you will want to decide on

a location for your building. The best location is a level area with good drainage.

•Allowenoughworkingspaceforeaseofmovingpartsintopositionduringassembly. Besurethere

will be enough space at entrance for doors to open fully and enough space around the building to

be able to fasten the panel screws from the outside.

•Before you begin the first steps in assembling your parts, a foundation should be constructed and

an anchoring system should be ready to use.

Watch the Weather: Be sure the day you select to install your building is dry and calm.

Do not attempt to assemble your building on a windy day.Be careful on wet or muddy ground.

Teamwork: Whenever possible, two or more people should work together to assemble

your building. One person can position parts or panels while the other is able to handle the

fasteners and the tools.

Tools and Materials: These are some basic tools and materials you will need for the

construction of your building. Decide which method of anchoring and the type of foundation

you wish to use in order to form a complete list of the materials you will need.

Note: A power screwdriver or vari-

as much as 40%.

PLAN AHEAD....

Safety precautions are important to follow throughout the construction of your building.

•Care must be taken when handling various

pieces of your building since some contain

sharp edges. Please wear work gloves, eye

protectionandlongsleeveswhenassembling

orperforming anymaintenanceonyourbuild-

ing.

•Practicecautionwiththetoolsbeingusedinthe

assembly of this building. Be familiar with the

operation of all power tools.

•Never concentrate your total weight on the

roof of the building. When using a step ladder

make sure that it is fully open and on even

ground before climbing on it.

•Keepchildrenandpetsawayfromworksiteto

avoid distractions and any accidents which

mayoccur.

•Donotattempttoassemble the building if parts

are missing because any building left partially

assembled may be seriously damaged by light

winds. Call 1-800-851-1085

SAFETY FIRST....

sharpedge

Finish: For long lasting finish, periodically clean and wax the exterior surface. Touch-

up scratches as soon as you notice them on your unit. Immediately clean the area with

a wire brush; wash it and apply touch-up paint per manufacturer's recommendation.

Roof: Keep roof clear of leaves and snow with long handled, soft-bristled broom. Heavy

amounts of snow on roof can damage building making it unsafe to enter. In snow country,

Roof Strengthening Kits are available for most Arrow Buildings for added protection

against heavy snow accumulation.

Doors: Always keep the door tracks clear of dirt and other debris that prevent them from

sliding easily. Lubricate door track annually with furniture polish or silicone spray. Keep

doors closed and locked to prevent wind damage.

Fasteners: Use all washers supplied to protect against weather infiltration and to protect

the metal from being scratched by screws.Regularly check your building for loose screws,

bolts, nuts, etc. and retighten them as necessary.

Moisture: A plastic sheet (vapor barrier) placed under the entire floor area with good

ventilation will reduce condensation.

Other Tips....

• Wash off inked part numbers on coated panels with soap and water.

• Silicone caulking may be used for watertight seals throughout the building.

Do not store swimming pool chemicals in your building. Combustibles and

corrosives must be stored in air tight approved containers.

Keep this Owner's Manual and Assembly Instructions for future reference.
