As timber is a natural product, it will deteriorate in the weather over time. This is quite normal and
does not affect the strength, durability and the guarantee of this product.
•
Although robust and weatherproof, wooden furniture requires some maintenance and nourishment
to prolong its life; it is advisable to apply once a year, and at least 6 months after installing your
product, a layer of satured coat or a mixture of turpentine and linseed oil as a protective coating. All
outdoor wooden products require routine inspection and regular maintenance.
•
After installation, a follow-up inspection should take place after one week and every month thereaf-
ter for the remaining life of your play products. Maintenance should be performed at any time it is
deemed necessary. As a general rule, major maintenance (wood refinishing) should be performed
at twelve month intervals from the date of installation.
Inspect and perform the maintenance based on the following checklist.
•
Major wooden parts: Inspect for splintering and structure defects at regular intervals.
•
For very minor splinters or chipping, lightly sand down and reapply a protective oil on the treated
area.
•
If timber has cracked or split significantly, replacement parts may be required, please contact our
after-sales service for any replacement requirements.
•
The application of a penetrating oil based stain sealer to all wooden components is essential at re-
gular intervals. Please consult your local hardware or home improvement store for recommendation
of an appropriate product. Ensure the product does not contain hazardous chemicals once dry that
can pose a potential health risk to children.
We hope you have a safe and enjoyable time.
