BEFORE YOU GET STARTED

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 fit. 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 firm and level and is built on firm ground, to prevent distortion. Refer to diagrams for the base 
dimensions.

The constructed base must be at least the size of tanalised floor bearers as referenced in supplied construct 
diagram. It is also recommended that the floor be at least 25mm above the surrounding ground level to avoid 
flooding.

TYPES OF BASE

•   Durable plastic grid*.
•   Concrete 75mm laid on top of 75mm hard-core.
•   Slabs laid on 50mm of sharp sand.
•   Timber base - Self constructed/Buy pre-made.

*We recommend a Fastfit EcoBase for your building. It is durable, lightweight, flexible, and easy to put in place.
