5.2. Packaging
Please do not simply throw away the packaging material. Paper, card and corrugated board as well as
plastic packaging materials should be placed in the correct collection containers.
5.3 Wood protection
The product is made from natural timber, for which regular and adequate wood preservation measures are
obligatory. Please contact a wood preservation expert for information on professional preservation measures.
Wood preservation is to be carried out by the customer at his own risk. No guarantee can be given in the event
of wood preservation not carried out in accordance with the instructions. Please also note the provisions relating
to this in our guarantee. We wish you much pleasure with your wood product.
Remember to treat the interior and exterior of doors and windows with your selected wood protection agent.
5.4. Assembly information
Please follow the safety information contained in point 4.3.
5.4.1. This must be considered before installation!
Prior to assembly, find out whether you require planning permission to erect a log cabin.
When marking out your cabin at the planned site, pay particular attention to the location of the existing electricity
and water connections/cables.
Preparation of the substrate
Once the ground has been successfully levelled, the height and horizontal position of the foundations are to be
marked out (see point 6).
Foundations
A prerequisite for assembly is an expertly laid, level and square foundation. A foundation plan can be obtained
from your specialist dealer.
In order to avoid rising damp, we recommend that a barrier layer be laid between the foundation and the floor
beams using the packaging film, roofing paper or similar. Roofing paper for a barrier layer is not included in the
scope of this delivery.
In order to avoid wind damage, anchor the floor beams of the cabin to the foundation. Concrete anchors or steel
angles and heavy-duty dowels available from specialist dealers are suitable for this. The anchors are not
included in the scope of this delivery.
Wood protection
(Cf. also point 5.3). If you arrange to have the assembly carried out by a weka assembly team, the required
applications of the wood protection agent must be completed prior to assembly beginning.
5.4.2. This must be considered
during installation!
At least two people are required to assemble the log cabin.
Please drill pilot holes for all screw connections to avoid damaging the wood. The following symbol in the
instructions will indicate when this is necessary:
The pallet on which the cabin is transported comprises two floor beams which are to be used in the assembly of
the cabin.
