The worktop is made of solid wood, which
has a moisture content of 8-10%. This is
the correct moisture content for worktops
that will be used in settings with normal
temperature and humidity levels. Because
wood is a living material that expands and
contracts according to the surrounding
humidity levels, wood worktops may, in rare
cases, bow somewhat. This can usually be
avoided by following the instructions for
installation and care below.
Do not open the plastic package until you
are ready to install the worktop. Before
installation, store the worktop in a room
with normal temperature and humidity
levels. Do not place the worktop against a
warm radiator, or lay it on a cold floor.
The worktop is pre-treated at the factory
with one coat of wood treatment oil. After
installation, sand the worktop following the
direction of the grain. Prepare the worktop
first by polishing the wood surfaces with
fine sandpaper or Scotch-Brite™. Wipe
away all sawdust with a dry cloth. Use a
brush or cloth to apply BEHANDLA wood
treatment oil in a thin, even coat. Allow the
oil to absorb into the wood for 15 minutes.
Use a soft cloth to wipe away any surplus
oil. Allow the surface to dry. Repeat the
treatment three times, allowing a day or
so between treatments for the oil to dry.
Polish the surface lightly after the first
treatment, using a fine sandpaper. When
the surface has dried thoroughly after the
three treatments, polish the worktop using a
coarse paper or cardboard to get a smooth
surface. To ensure the worktop retains its
hardwearing surface for many years, treat it
with BEHANDLA wood treatment oil once a
year or as needed. Areas where the worktop
may dry out, such as around the sink and
hob, should be treated often.
Scratches and small blemishes can be
treated with fine sandpaper on a sanding
block. Always sand in the direction of the
grain. For daily cleaning, use ordinary
washing-up detergent, soap or water. Never
use chemicals to clean the worktop.
Worktops that are installed above a
dishwasher, washing machine or oven
should be protected on the underside with
FIXA diffusion barrier.
IMPORTANT!
Wash used brushes and soak used cloths
in water and place them in a sealed
bag to eliminate all risk of spontaneous
combustion.
