Safety and Care Advice
Important – Please read these instructions fully before starting assembly
Check you have all the components and tools listed on pages 2 and 3.
Remove all fittings from the plastic bags and separate them into their groups.
Keep children and animals away from the work area, small parts could choke if swallowed.
Make sure you have enough space to layout the parts before starting.
Do not stand or put weight on the product, this could cause damage.
Assemble the item as close to its final position (in the same room) as possible.
Assemble on a soft level surface to avoid damaging the unit or your floor.
This product has been produced from natural timber; you may notice some variation in the grain and colour of different component parts which is normal for furniture produced using natural wood and is not the result of any manufacturing fault.
The product has been treated with a wax and oil finish to prevent dirt ingress and preserve moisture.
On unpacking the furniture you may notice an odour due to this treatment; this will disappear once the furniture is unpacked and assembled after a period of time.
This process may leave some staining on the packaging material; please take care to ensure this does not transfer to clothing or carpeted surfaces during assembly.
We do not recommend the use of power drill/drivers for
inserting screws,
as this could damage the unit. Only use hand screwdrivers.
Parts of the assembly will be
easier with 2 people.
Dispose of all packaging
carefully and responsibly.
Care and maintenance
Use an appropriate furniture polish for natural wood furniture and a dry cloth to clean the product.
Avoid placing the furniture in direct sunlight as this will cause the timber to prematurely age.
From time to time check that there are no loose screws on this unit.
This product should not be discarded with household waste. Take to your local authority waste disposal centre.
Note: If required the next page can be cut out and used as reference throughout the assembly. Keep this page with these instructions for future reference.

A Guide to - Wall Mounting & Fixings
Important note:
If plastic wall plugs are supplied with your product:
- these are only suitable for use in masonry walls.
If you are in any doubt about the correct wall plugs for your wall, seek professional advice.
Failure of the product due to using incorrect fixings is the responsibility of the installer.
Important: When drilling into walls always check that there are no hidden wires or pipes etc.
Make sure that the screws and wall plugs being used are suitable for supporting your unit. Consult a qualifed tradesperson if you are unsure.
Hints:
1: General rule: Always use a larger screw and wall plug
if you are not sure.
2: Ensure you use the recommended drill bit to match the wall
plug and hole size.
3: Ensure you drill the hole horizontally, do not force the drill or
enlarge the hole.
4: Take extra care when drilling high walls, ceilings and ceramic
tiles. Ensure wall plugs are inserted beyond the thickness of the ceramic tiles to avoid the tiles splitting or cracking.
5: Ensure wall plugs are well fitted and are a tight fit in the
drilled hole.
Types of walls
You can use one of the following types of wall plug if your walls are made of brick, breeze block, concrete, stone or wood.
No.1 General Purposewall plug No.3 Cavity Fixingwall plug No.5 Hammer Fixingwall plug
Generally aerated blocks should not be used to support heavy loads, use a specialist fitting in this case. For light loads, general purpose wall plugs can be used.
No.2 Plasterboardwall plug
For use with plasterboard partitions or hollow wooden doors.
No.4 Cavity Fixing-Heavy Duty
wall plug
For use with walls stuck with plasterboard. The hammer fixing allows it to be fixed to the wall rather than the plasterboard. Always check the fixing is secure to the retaining wall.
No.6 Shield Anchorwall plug
Heavy loads

Care & Maintenance
