You may experience a nest box

FRIEND ME !
EASY AS 1-2-3 !
A production error has the nest box
lid prop too long in some models.
Cut ½"– ¾" off the end, so it can
clear the underside of the nest box
lid. Assemble first and only cut if
necessary.
A production error has two unnec-
essary pre-drilled holes on the door
frame. Please ignore—they are not
required.

INSTRUCTIONS!
FIND A LEVEL SURFACE
Build your coop on a flat surface and, with a friend,
carry it to the location where it will be used.
Assembling the coop on the flattest surface available
will help you greatly when squaring up panels and
aligning the roof.

STEP 5:
Assembling the ROOF PANELS & TRIM
Squaring up the cage before
assembling the roof is the
single most-important step
you can take to guarantee
the best roof alignment.
A squared-up frame will
result in correct alignment
and a nicer finished product.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT screw
the roof panels down until
all panels have been laid in
position and aligned evenly.
Place the roof panels over
the chicken run first. Check
alignment. Place the roof
panels over the coop house
area. Check alignment.
When all panels have been
positioned and aligned,
attach each with the appro-
priate screws.

If you've never followed instructions before, this is a good
time to start! These tips have been compiled to lead you to a
successful assembly. We know you can do this! Good luck!

NOT LEVEL = NOT GOOD
If you follow these steps, coop assembly will be easy for one
person. But you may find a second person's assistance useful
in some steps.
If you have to move the assembled cage to its final location,
you will definitely need assistance to protect the integrity
of the cage.
After unpacking all components, count the contents of the
screw and dowel packets. Compare the counts against the
instructions. There should be one spare for each packet.
If any packets are short, please contact Prevue or use your
own appropriate-size replacements.
