Walls
When installing the walls, it is important to remember that:
➢
The logs are always assembled with their tongue upwards!
➢
Never directly hit the tongue with the hammer!
If necessary, use the hitting block and hammer!
Install the walls in accordance with the appended wall plans (see Technical specifications).
First of all place half logs at the correct location (see
Technical specifications) and attach them with screws to the
foundation joists. Then install the side wall logs. Make sure
that the first layer of logs extends a bit over the foundation
joists: the logs must extend over the joists by some 3
–10 mm
(1/8”–3/8”) depending on a wall thickness (please see the
drawing). You will thus protect the house from moisture,
allowing the free flow of rainwater into the ground.
ATTENTION
:
After the first layer of logs, measure the
diagonal lengths and, if necessary, re-install the logs.
Only if
the diagonal lengths are completely equal is the base
frame rectangular and you can mutually attach the logs.
The first layer of logs:
Continue the installation of the walls by strongly forcing the wall logs into one another. If necessary, use
the hitting block and hammer. At the same time, do not forget to begin the installation of the door and
windows. You should definitely begin the door installation after the 5
th
-6
th
layer of logs.
Door and window
Doorframe:
➢
If it is a double door, the
doorframe is supplied in separate
parts
due
to
transportation
requirements and you will have to
begin by assembling it.
➢
To do this, place together the 4
parts of the frame and screw
them onto one another.
➢
Make sure that the part of the
frame with the deeper notch is
installed upwards. The lateral
jamb parts have hinges and are
mirrored.
➢
It is recommended to install the
leaves later.
➢
If it is a single door, its frame and
leaf
are
supplied
already
assembled.
