Notice
Workbench is made from high quality beech wood guaranteeing maximum resistance and
long service life of the bench.
Please observe the following points:
1. The bench must not be left in damp or humid conditions which will cause movement in
the wood. Recommended humidity level max. 60%.
2. If you bought workbench without surface treatment, we recommend you to finish the
bench by colourless varnish or oil including the bottom of workbench. Varnish (oil)
prevents absorption of surrounding moisture. Please repeat surface treatment each 6
months.
3. To increase the stability of your workbench we recommend you to bolt the bench to the
floor.Please tighten all screws every 6 months.
