Before you begin - Important points to note for fitting the Ground Anchor through your Asgard shed.

- The ground anchor must be secured into a good solid concrete. At least 100mm deep

- Before fixing the anchor, plan where it will go before bolting it down.

- Check for pipe work under the ground.

- We recommend the use of safety goggles when fitting the anchor.

- You will need a metal drill, with a bit size of 12mm.

- You mays also want a brush and a small hammer.

At this point we assume you done all the basic work outlined here.

1: Use the product as a template and mark out, then drill the holes through the base of your Asgard using a 12mm Metal drill bit.

2: Notice that drilling has removed the paint and exposed bare metal.

YOU MUST NOW TREAT THE BARE METAL AROUND THE HOLES WITH A RUST INHIBITOR.

3: Place your ground anchor in situ over the pre-drilled holes in your concrete base and put the bolts in place and begin turning by hand.

4: Finish screwing the bolts in using the supplied allen key.

5: Screw all the way down flush with the product. The bolts should be flush with the top of the anchor.

6: Finally tap in the ball bearings into the top of the bolts.

7: Use your ground anchor.!

Note* If you have a wooden subfloor floor in your Asgard you will need to cut out a section of the flooring to accomodate the ground anchor AND the chain.

Congratulations!

Remember, You MUST treat the holes with a rust inhibitor.
