ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS:

Step 1: Fasten rear panel 1R to panel 1L using 10mm self-tapping screws as depicted in the diagram below. Panels are shown with the outside surface facing up (corrugations face upwards). Connect top channel 20B to one side of the panels by either tapping the channel into place with a rubber mallet, or sliding it into place. Connect bottom channel 20C to the opposite side of the panels. The top of the panels is the side to which channel 20B is connected. NOTE: Channels 20B and 20C are not symmetrical. The shorter lip of each channel must be on the outside surface.
