CARE OF YOUR ARBOUR
The Toscana Corner Arbour is made of planed pressure treated and FSC certified
timber and as such is guaranteed against rot for a minimum of 15 years. However, it
must be remembered that as a natural product, timber is subject to movement and
weathering as it seasons. It is not uncommon for small spits to occur when drying
and warping when timber is allowed to dry too rapidly. These will normally go back
when humidity rises, it is nature at work and not considered a fault.
Its colour will also change with time, a re-treatment, as required with a proprietary
wood treatment is recommended.

3. Take one of the larger pieces of Trellis C
and fasten to the post with the fixed rafter
attached. The top of the trellis should be
up against the rafter and should be flush
with the outside edge of the post. Fix with
four screws Z equally spaced down the
side.
4. Ensure the free post is pushed against the trel-
lis on the other side . Fix it to the post using
four screws as above ensuring the rafter is
down in the bottom of the slot.

one screw X as before.

rafter into one of the slots in the assembly and
again rest the free end into the slot on the new
post.

bly below the rafter E in the same way as be-
fore fixing at four positions down the side.
