AGE THE FINISH BY WORKING ON CONCRETE OR PATIOS N.B. This plan covers the entire iGrow range. The only difference between a 6ft long and an 8ft long for example are a few extra pieces of alloy, glazing, nuts and bolts etc. The construc- tion of the sub-frame assemblies is the same but for the purposes of this booklet we have used the 8 x 6 model as the benchmark. - Page 6 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE 6’3” WIDE MODEL “iGROW RANGE” THE CONTENTS OF THIS CARTON ARE DIVIDED INTO DIFFERENT FRAME AS- SEMBLIES THAT COLLECTIVELY MAKE UP THE COMPLETED GREENHOUSE FRAMEWORK. The contents of this carton are divided into the different frame assemblies that collectively make up the completed greenhouse framework.
- Page 7 SIDE FRAME ASSEMBLY When you come to the greenhouse itself start by assembling the side frames first. Lay out the pieces on the ground as though you were standing inside the house, i.e. with the gutter and cill facing downwards, and the bolt channels of the glazing bar(s) upwards. (Key Point). Slide a bolt into each end of each glazing bar.

Page 9: Rear End Assembly
REAR END ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS Lay out the frame as though you were standing on the inside i.e. with the bolt slots uppermost. Roof corners marked “R” at the apex, opposite each other, facing downwards (i.e. “R” on outside). Roof corner bars are mitred at both ends where as side corner bars are mitred at one end only (Key Point). - Page 10 N.B. Roof corner bars are marked ‘R’ on the outside, which indicates that they meet at the ridge. They are also mitred at both ends. If you have a painted greenhouse there is no letter ‘R’ on the corner bar. You must ensure that the ‘middle’...

- Page 14 Fix each door wheel into position by pushing the bolt provided through the centre of the wheel and then through the hole in the top door panel from underneath (i.e. from the inside of the door). Put the washer over the bolt and secure with the nut provided, tightening until there is no movement on the bolt.
- Page 15 ROOF VENT ASSEMBLY The roof vent pack has 5 pieces of aluminium: and from the main box of fittings you require 6’ of glazing beading, 4 nuts and bolts, 2 casement stay pins, 1 casement stay and 6 M4 stainless steel nuts and bolts.

- Page 17 ASSEMBLY OF GREENHOUSE UNIT The first operation is to connect the two side frames to the end frames to form the outer shape of the completed structure. Another pair of willing hands would be useful at this stage. Lift the first side frame into its position by the rear end. Slot the eaves bar into the small space between the roof and side corner bar so that the gutter is outside the end frame and the two flanges that form the angle of the roof and side are inside and tight up against the bolt slots of the roof and side corner bar.
- Page 18 8.Line up the slotted holes at the end of the ridge with the bolt slots, in the corner bars and push the two bolts, previously inserted during the gable end assembly, into the slots. Put on nut and tighten. The roof bars can now be attached to the ridge and gutter. Attach them to the ridge first by sliding a bolt into the bolt slot of the glazing bar, inserting it through the hole in the flange of the ridge.
- Page 19 NOW YOU CAN FIT THE VENT TO THE RIDGE Slide the vent onto the ridge from either end and into the desired position. Before sliding the vent into the ridge, slide a piece of black tube into the vent hinge socket. Slide the vent into posi- tion, insert a small self tapping screw into the length of the tube approximately ½...
- Page 20 PATIO FLOOR You must make sure that the structure is level and square. Put one pane of polycarbonate in each corner of roof, each pane must be level with the small glass retaining lip just above the gutter and be running parallel with the roof glazing bars.
- Page 21 GLAZING THE STRUCTURE The polycarbonate is UV treated on one side only. Each panel has a sticky plastic cover which indi- cates the treated side. The plan on page 22 indicates which piece of polycarbonate is fitted in which position on the greenhouse. The mastic bead will be sticky, so ensure the polycarbonate panel is fitted correctly before pressing to reinforce the bond.
