SAFETY GUIDELINES

PLEASE READ THE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE BEGINNING TO
ASSEMBLE THE STRUCTURE. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.

WARNING

This structure is intended to be self-supporting once constructed with all frames,
hardware, sheathing, sheeting, bracing, cables, and membrane in place and secured to the
foundation as shown in the manual. Stability during construction, from winds and loads
imposed during erection, is the sole responsibility of the installer. Observe safety codes
required by your jurisdiction, and relevant safety practices for working at heights. Avoid the
risk of electrical shock from overhead lines or electrical storms. Poly-Tex recommends
contracting a licensed electrician to perform electrical work. Eye protection is recommended
under all circumstances and hearing protection is recommended when cutting components
with power tools.

Foundations

These instructions include minimum guidance for foundations based on the International
Building Code. These minimums are suitable for some areas of the country but not all.
Obtain a building permit if required in your jurisdiction. Engineered Certified foundation plans
may be required by a building official before issuing a permit. Even if not required, seeking
guidance from a qualified structural or civil engineer for the foundation design may improve
the life of the structure.

DANGER

No part of this structure is engineered to function as an anchorage point for a fall arrest
system. Use a safety net or work from a safe work platform (i.e. scaffolding). Select a calm
day for work. Wind can be sufficient enough to knock materials or workers off a work platform
or ladder, resulting in a potentially deadly fall.

Overview of assembly procedure

While each structure and site is unique, and may require special considerations, these
instructions are for a tilt-up method (where frames are assembled on the ground and tilted
onto ground stakes or anchor rods using ropes or lifts). If installer is not confident to erect the
structure, Poly-Tex suggests you hire a general contractor, carpenter, or similar licensed
business familiar with construction to assemble and erect the structure.

DANGER

Do not overload structure. Consult with a Poly-Tex representative prior to adding any

amount of weight over the specified capacity of this structure. Basket purlins, shelving or any
objects of significant weight shall not be hung, attached, or secured to roof or truss members
in a manner that will overload the structure.

WARNING

Do not walk on polycarbonate sheets. If the structure is to be covered with polycarbonate

sheets,always use scaffolding for the erection process to avoid damage to sheeting and to
ensure safety. Polycarbonate sheeting has UV coating protected with vinyl film on the
exterior surface. Install sheets with the film intact and toward the exterior. Remove film once
the sheet has been fastened in place.
