• Roof Load Capacity: Do not load more than 440 pounds on the roof of the shed. Exceeding this limit can compromise structural integrity and lead to collapse.
• Sicurezza dell'assemblaggio: Always wear appropriate safety gear, including gloves, during assembly. Metal edges can be sharp.
• Superficie piana: Ensure the shed is assembled on a firm, level surface to prevent instability and ensure proper door function.
• Ventilazione: The shed is equipped with ventilation openings. Do not obstruct these openings to maintain proper air circulation and prevent moisture buildup.
• Ancoraggio: Securely anchor the shed to the ground or a concrete pad to prevent it from being moved or damaged by strong winds.

3. Installazione e assemblaggio

Assembly of the Devoko storage shed requires careful attention to detail and typically involves two people. While the product is designed for DIY assembly, it is not pre-assembled.

3.1 Preparazione

• Selezione del sito: Choose a level area for installation. A concrete pad or a constructed wooden base is highly recommended for optimal stability and alignment.
• Disimballaggio: Carefully unpack all components. It is advisable to lay out all hardware and panels before starting to avoid searching for parts during assembly.
• Pellicola protettiva: Many panels are covered with a protective plastic film. This film can be difficult to remove; consider peeling it off each panel before assembly or as you go.

3.2 Fasi di assemblaggio (linee guida generali)

1. Costruzione di base: If not using a concrete slab, construct a sturdy, level base. Ensure the base is square by measuring diagonal corners to confirm equal distances. Secure the shed's bottom frame to this base to maintain squareness during assembly.
2. Installazione del pannello a parete: Attach wall panels according to the provided diagrams. Pay close attention to the orientation of each panel. If screw holes do not align, re-check the previous steps as a panel may be installed incorrectly.
3. Montaggio del telaio della porta: Assemble the door frame and install the sliding doors. Ensure they operate smoothly before proceeding.
4. Assemblaggio del tetto: Carefully attach the roof panels. The pitched roof design aids in rainwater runoff. Ensure all roof screws are properly sealed to prevent leaks.
5. Controlli finali: Verify all screws are tightened appropriately. Avoid overtightening, as some screws can strip easily.

• Ispezione del tetto: Regularly check the roof for any accumulation of heavy snow or debris, especially during winter months, to prevent exceeding the 440 lbs load capacity.

6. Risoluzione Dei Problemi

• Holes Not Aligning During Assembly: This is a common issue if a previous panel was installed incorrectly or the base is not perfectly square. Disassemble the affected section, verify the squareness of the base, and re-check panel orientations against the instructions before re-assembly.
• Porte che si bloccano: Check the door tracks for debris. Clean the tracks and ensure they are properly aligned. Lubrication with a silicone-based spray can improve movement.
• Perdite d'acqua: Inspect roof panel seams and screw points. Ensure all screws have their plastic washers properly seated and consider applying a dab of acrylic sealant to exposed roof panel screws if leaks persist.
