We’re so excited you’ve received your Focus Cubed Habitats enclosure. Now time to assemble! All enclosures have been preassembled for fitment. Screws need a #2 Phillips screwdriver. If you have one – an electric drill speeds up the process and is highly recommended. PVC is smooth and does not take much effort to slide, so it helps to assemble on a non slick surface.
KEY
1 – Floor
2 – Viewer’s right side panel
3 – Viewer’s left side panel
4 – Front panel with installed door(s)
5 – Roof
6 – Rear
· On a flat surface, place the “1” floor panel and line up squarely and attach side panel “2” to the floor panel using all supplied screws. Repeat for side panel “3”.
· Once floor and sides are floor are a unit, take front “4” panel and gently slide it into the machined front grooves. Take care to seat the front “4” panel flush all along the entire bottom machined groove. The joint should look like the first photo below. If the front joint is poking up higher, the front panel is not seated correctly in the bottom groove.
· Attach the front panel using supplied screws from the bottom and sides.
· Place “5” roof panel into the assembly, taking similar care to seat the front panel in the machined groove. The top of the roof panel should be flush all along the top of the side panels. Attach the roof to the front and side panels using the supplied screws.
· The rear”6″ panel fits into the open rear machined channel, with the rear of the panel being flush with the back of the floor, roof, and sides. If you have any interior-mounted accessories now is the time to run the cords through the supplied cord slots before using supplied screws to attach on the roof, floor, and sides. You can loosen a rear side panel screw if you need some additional clearance as you are seating the rear into the groove.
· Once done attaching panels, remove all stickers, and seal substrate area to stop any liquid or debris from coming out of the seams. Follow directions on your preferred sealant tube for best results. Allow ample time for sealant odor to dissipate before adding your animal.
