Specific Maintenance Details
FSC Timber
Clean with a stiff brush once per year, especially in more exposed locations, in order to prevent a verdigris type
build up on the timber surface. Ideally this should be completed in early spring. During the cleaning stage, all
exposed timber surfaces should be inspected for splits and splinters. Any splinters and graffiti should be removed
and the surface sanded with 100 grit sandpaper in order to remove any uneven / sharp edges or surfaces.
During the first few months after installation the tannin naturally occurring in the timber may leach out and
cause a brown staining on the bases. This may be removed with a light solution of household bleach and water.
Stainless Steel (polished stainless steel only)
Clean as required, but at least every three months, using a stainless steel polish and a lint free cloth. To remove
ground in dirt, a stainless steel finishing pad may be required.
Repairs
FSC Timber
For light damage, please see section on specific maintenance details above. For instances of heavy damage,
the timber item should be replaced. Please order against the part number reference in the reordering section
towards the end of this manual.
Stainless Steel
Light damage (surface scratches etc.) can be removed using an emery pad (240 grit) and freeing oil such as
‘WD40’. Care should be taken to follow the direction of the brushing grain. It is recommended that a trial repair
be carried out on an unimportant surface first. No corrosive cleaners or other abrasives should be used. Any
contamination, particularly carbon steel scuffs from vehicles, should be quickly removed to avoid corrosion.
Heavy Damage
In the event of serious damage to any component, replacements should be ordered from Factory Furniture Ltd.
In this event (or if the product needs to be disassembled for any reason), please contact Factory Furniture for
detailed technical advice.

Bench (Surface Fix)
Bench (Sub-surface Fix)
Util Bench - (surface & sub-surface fix options)
1. Install suitable foundation pads (see illustration) each with top face at ground
level (or with top face 100mm below ground level for sub-surface fix)
2. Position bench in correct orientation with bases centrally on foundation pads;
then mark hole positions through fixing lugs.
3. Remove the bench; drill holes Ø12mm x 75mm deep (or as bolt manufacturer’s
recommendations).
4. Clear debris from holes.
5. Reposition bench unit and fix to foundation pads using 4 no. zinc-coated M10 x
75mm sleeve anchors tightened to 50Nm (or as per manufacturer’s instruction).
Ensure bench remains level during fixing process.
6. (**Surface fix only**) Hammer an anti-vandal armour ring over each bolt head to
prevent tampering.
7. Check level (and reinstate ground level if necessary - sub-surface fix)
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Ensure that stainless steel is protected during site cutting of stone – contamination
from disc cutters will produce corrosion on stainless steel components.
