Advisory Notes
·Do not use power tools above 8 volts to assemble.
·Periodic structural checks of this furniture should be undertaken. Do not use if there are any
doubts about its’ fitness for purpose.
·Exercise care so as to not trap fingers in any of the hinged parts of this furniture.
·Always use on firm level ground, ensuring that all legs remain in contact with the ground.
·Do not stand on a chair or sit or stand on any other item.
·Do not let children play with this furniture.
·This furniture should be stored under cover during periods of adverse weather (wet or cold)
and during winter. Clean and dry thoroughly before storage.
Tannin Exudation
Tannin is a naturally occurring substance which may exude from the surface of some wood species
and may stain the surface of hard areas such as patios or decks. To clean tannin marks use a
proprietary cleaning product or a water-based wood restorer containing oxalic acid. Stains must be
removed within 1-2 days of them occurring. Care should be exercised to follow the manufacturer's
guidelines of the cleaner used and test a small area first to determine its’ effectiveness. This is
especially important on wooden decking areas where the existing surface finish may be lifted due
to the application of the cleaning agent. If decking has become discolored from the cleaning, it
can be restored with a suitable wood finish.
Maintenance
In order to maintain the appearance of the wood, regular coatings of linseed oil must be applied.
The frequency will depend on the weather conditions experienced.
·Refer to the manufacturer’s guidelines of the linseed oil used.
·Apply the linseed oil with a clean cloth, wiping it directly onto the wood surface.
·Treat all surfaces of the furniture. Ensure that any hidden surfaces, such as those exposed
when the furniture is turned upside down, are adequately treated. Care should be given to
wipe the end grain, to all joints and to crevices that may have been caused by damage.
·Let the surface dry out. This can take 4-12 hours depending on weather conditions.
·Repeat the above steps with at least 2 more coats of oil. Extra coats may leave a semi-gloss
sheen once the oil has dried, but excess oil can be wiped off with a clean cloth.
·IMPORTANT: Cloths with linseed oil may be a fire hazard. Immediately after use, saturate all
cloths used for applying linseed oil with water and dispose of safely outside the home.
If left untreated, this furniture will turn a grayish color. Light sanding can restore the original color
after which linseed oil can be applied. Fine surface cracks may occur over time from weathering,
but these won't affect the structural integrity of the furniture.
