Felt Health and Safety – Use safety goggles when installing the roofing felt. 1. Before laying the felt, you will need to attach the low side bargeboards with the 40mm galvanised nails. As you can see there are two for the low side – one at the edge of the roof and one on the underside.
1. Secure corner strips at each corner of your Power shed with 40mm nails (at least four per strip). Extra strips are provided to cover the joins between side wall panels.

Power Base Installation Instructions 1. The Power Base will be made up from the pressure treated timbers in the pack (this is the 100mm x 50mm timber). Please consult the diagram in your base fixing pack for the precise layout of your base.
Page 18
Take extra care to brush treatment into all wooden components inside and outside. Feel free to change the colour of the building giving you the ‘power’ to style it your own way. Check your base Although your base should be level at the time of assembly, some bases can move over time and if you find this occurs then the building can twist or door may not close properly.

Returns If Power is not for you and you’d like to return your shed within 14 days of delivery then we will collect the item from you without charging a collection fee. No fuss, no fees! All we ask is that you do not unpack the shed or take the shed off the pallet. You will be able to see the shed panels on the pallet if you want to double check the quality of the shed panels.
