PLEASE READ INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY
• Check the pack and make sure you have all the parts listed.
• When you are ready to start, make sure you have the right tools at hand (not supplied).
• Ensure there is plenty of space and a clean dry area for assembly.
TIMBER
As with all natural materials, timber can be affected during various weather conditions. For the duration of heavy
or extended periods of rain, swelling of the wood logs may occur. Warping of the wood may also occur during
excessive dry spells due to an interior moisture loss. Unfortunately, these processes cannot be avoided but can
be mitigated. It is suggested that the outdoor building is sprayed with water during extended periods of warm
sunshine and sheltered as much as possible during rain or snow.
Please do not paint or treat your cabin timbers before assembly as they must stay dry for a snug tongue and
groove t. To validate your guarantee and ensure longevity of the product, it is ESSENTIAL that your building is
treated with a suitable wood preserver or paint AFTER assembly, both internally and externally.
BUILDING A BASE
Care must be taken to ensure the product is placed on a suitable base. When thinking about where the building
and base is going to be constructed: Ensure that there will be access to all sides for maintenance work and annual
treatment.
Ensure the base is rm and level and is built on rm ground, to prevent distortion. Refer to diagrams for the base
dimensions, The base should be slightly smaller than the external measurement of the building, i.e. The cladding
should overlap the base, creating a run off for water. It is also recommended that the oor be at least 25mm
above the surrounding ground level to avoid ooding.
TYPES OF BASE
• Concrete 75mm laid on top of 75mm hard-core.
• Slabs laid on 50mm of sharp sand.
• Timber Base - Self constructed/Buy pre-made.
