- Material: The structure is intended to withstand heavy snow and wind loads, but it is not designed to withstand extreme weather conditions. Users are advised to assess their appropriateness for their intended use and local weather conditions.
Usage Features:
- Assembly: The manual provides a step-by-step guide for assembly, starting with reviewing the whole structure and choosing the proper installation site. It emphasizes the importance of a concrete foundation with specific anchor points. The assembly process involves connecting trusses, installing purlins, and then attaching the front and rear trusses. Boards and reed grooves are installed next, followed by the installation of the front and rear films. Finally, the roll film system is installed.
- Safety Precautions: Prior to assembly, users are instructed to read and understand the product manual completely. It is crucial to check all parts against the list to ensure everything is present and undamaged. Safety equipment such as helmets, protective eyewear, clothing, safety harnesses for elevated workers, proper ladder, cage, and safety operation gear are recommended. The structure is designed for temporary outdoor storage use only and is not intended for human occupancy.
- Weather Considerations: The greenhouse is not designed to withstand extreme heavy snow and wind loads. Users must consider local weather conditions and exercise caution. In areas with low or no wind, assembly is hard in heavy wind. Users are warned not to make any alterations to the structure and not to hang any weights on the frame during installation.
Maintenance Features:
- Regular Inspection: After installation, users should periodically walk around and inspect the greenhouse to ensure all components are firmly secured and the whole structure is well supported. All bolts, nuts, and connection points should be checked for proper positioning.
- Snow Removal: It is strongly recommended to remove any snow from the roof immediately and not to leave any snow load overnight. A 3-foot clearance on all sides must be maintained at all times to prevent snow accumulation and piling up on the sides, which could push inwards and lead to a collapse.
- Film Protection: During assembly, sharp points of the joints should be wrapped with adhesive tape (#34) to avoid friction between the fabric and the interface, which could result in fabric damage.
- Roll Film System: The roll film system should be installed to swing freely, allowing the film rolling machine to raise and lower the roll film tube horizontally and flexibly without jamming. This ensures proper ventilation and prevents damage to the film.
- Warranty: Detailed warranty conditions and coverage are available on the manufacturer's website, www.tmgindustrial.com.
