PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS:

Thank you for purchasing a model SHED-118 steel storage shed. Each shed includes the following features: panels

protected from rust by zinc-plating; angled roofline to facilitate drainage of the roof; lockable door latch that

incorporates a 5/16in. opening for a padlock (not included); and an open-floor design. Although assembly and use are

relatively intuitive, all persons who might participate in the assembly or use of this product must familiarize themselves

with the instructions provided in this manual.

HAZARD IDENTIFICATION: EXPLANATION OF SIGNAL WORDS

This manual uses SIGNAL WORDS to indicate the likelihood of personal injuries, as well as the probable

seriousness of those injuries, if the product is misused in the ways described. Other signal words call attention to

uses of the product likely cause property damage.

The signal words used in this manual appear below along with the meaning of each word:

Identifies a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, WILL result in DEATH or SERIOUS

INJURY. Use of this signal word is limited to the most extreme situations.

Identifies a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, COULD result in DEATH or

SERIOUS INJURY.

Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, COULD result in MINOR or

MODERATE injury.

Identifies practices likely to result in product/property damage, such as operation that might

damage the shed.

AFE USE RECOMMENDATIONS:

Vestil diligently strives to identify foreseeable hazards associated with the use of its products. However, no

manual can address every possible risk. The end-user ultimately is responsible for exercising sound judgment at

all times.

Electrocution might result if the shed contacts electrified wires. Reduce the likelihood that an

operator or bystander might be electrocuted by applying common sense.

 DO NOT assemble or install the shed in an area where contact with electrified wires is possible.

 DO NOT use the shed as a shelter during electrical storms.

Failure to read and understand the instructions included in this manual before assembling

or using the shed constitutes misuse of the product. Reduce the likelihood of serious personal injuries that

could result from improper of careless assembly or use of this product:

 DO NOT use a structurally damaged shed. Periodically inspect the shed for structural damage. DO NOT use the

shed if it is structurally damaged.

 Follow the assembly instructions in this manual. The shed might be unsafe to use if improperly or carelessly

assembled.

 DO NOT stack items on top of the shed. The roof panels will not support much weight, and because the roof is

angled, items will slide off of the roof.

 DO NOT climb on or allow others to climb on the shed.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS:

Step 1: Assemble the side walls and rear wall.

As shown in the diagram below, lay 2 middle wall panels (9M) next to each other and fasten them together

with 10mm screws. Next, fasten the middle panels to end panels (9S) with 10mm screws. Panels are

shown with the outside surface facing up—corrugations face upwards.

NOTE: Put together three sets of wall panel assemblies (2 side walls and 1 rear wall).

Step 2: Attach top and bottom channels to the wall assemblies.

a) Rear wall: Connect top channels 27H & 27I to one side of the panels by either tapping the channels

onto the tops of the panels with a rubber mallet, or sliding

them into place. Connect bottom channels

27C & 27D to the opposite sides of the panels. When the shed is assembled, the top of the each side

wall will be the side to which channels 27H & 27I are connected.

NOTE: Channels 27H & 27I are not symmetrical. The shorter lip of each channel must be on the

outside surface. The longer lip is notched at the end.

Step 3: Attach cha

nnel connectors.

a) Rear wall: Fasten side wall mid-panel support channels 35R & 35L to the wall panel assemblies with 10mm self-

tapping screws; then fasten channel 31 to the inside surface of the rear panels with 10mm self-tapping screws.

The channel pieces should face downwards, i.e. towards the bottom of the walls.

Flip the panel

s over and use a channel connector (66) to join the centers of the mid-panel

support channels (35R & 35L).

tapping screws; then fasten channel 31 to the inside surface of the rear panels with 10mm self-tapping screws.

The channel pieces should face downwards, i.e. towards the bottom of the walls.

Step 4: Assemble the two sides of the roof.

Each roof assembly consists of roof panels 12R, 12M, and 12L as shown below. Fasten the panels together where

they overlap with 10mm screws; then install channel connectors (66) over the junctions of the top and bottom

channels.

Each roof panel has 2

holes near its bottom

edge. Be certain to

fasten channels 27A &

27B to the bottom

edges of the panels.

Step 5: A

ssemble the front wall.

The front wall assembly consists of panels 13L & 13R as shown below. Fasten jamb pieces 41B and 41C to the

inside edge of each panel with 10mm screws. Next, attach top channels 27P & 27N to the top edge of the panels

with 10mm screws. Fasten the bottom channels (27L & 27M) to the opposite edges of the panels. Install channel 28,

jamb piece 43, and channel connector 66 is diagramed below.

Step 8: Connect the prea

ssembled door panels (5L & 5R) to the front wall assembly. Align the hinges with the holes

in the jamb pieces. Attach the hinges to the jambs with 4 x 10mm rivets. Attach padbolt to outside of door (5R)

either with screws or 3mm x 10mm rivets. Attach a padbolt keeper to door 5L with 16mm screws.

Step 10:

A) Connect the (roof) ridge beams (73) together with the ridge beam connector (67). Notice that one end

of each ridge beam is marked with a red arrow. Position the ridge beams next to each other with the

arrows facing each other; then set the gable caps (69) on top of the ridge beams. Fasten the gable caps

to the beams with 10mm screws. Finally, attach the cable cap connector (61) to the assembly with

16mm screws.

B & C) Slide the edge of one roof assembly into the gable assembly. The edge to insert is formed by roof

channels 27E and 27F.

12). Drill holes through a roof brace (65) with a 3mm drill bit; then set the roof brace as shown in the diagram below by

fastening one end to the ridge beam and the other end to the top of the rear wall assembly. Attach the other roof

brace to the ridge beam and front wall in the same manner. Next, fasten the roof at all 4 corners to the walls with

16mm screws.
