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.
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.
We wish you much pleasure with your wood product.
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.
Foundations
A prerequisite for assembly is an expertly laid, level and square foundation. We recommend a continuous
foundation. A foundation plan can be obtained from your specialist dealer. A raft foundation is also possible.
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.
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.
The intermediate spaces between the floor beams guarantee the necessary subfloor ventilation for the
house.
Fit the wall boards together, with the tongue pointing upwards. If necessary, use a rubber mallet. The
assembly timber will prevent any damage to the tongue. The assembly timber can be found in the cabin's
front wall pack.
In order to check the right angles, measure the diagonals and make any necessary corrections until you
have the same values.
The wall boards are laterally interchangeable. If the cabin has an off-centre door opening, you can fit the
door in the left or in the right half of the front wall. The door will always open to the right.
With an asymmetrical roof, the door must be located under the gable peak in order to ensure that it opens
fully with no problems.
The possibility of differing wood moisture + tolerances in individual components may lead to variations in
dimensions, particularly in the area of the pediment/side wall height,
which must be adjusted during installation using appropriate means (e.g. electric plane).
