Assembly and maintenance instructions

Before assembly
Machined logs and other parts have been packed into protective wrapping. If the item will not be constructed immediately, it should be kept indoors or otherwise well-protected until assembly. The package should be kept away from the ground in order to avoid absorbing moisture and be stored on a level base.
Building instructions include a part list and drawings of the wall constructions. Please check the contents in full with the help of the part list and contact your retailer immediately if something is missing or defective.
Please sort the parts near the planned building area leaving enough space for working.

1. Check contents of the package
2. Use the part list at the end to register any missing or damaged parts
3. Contact your retailer if necessary.

The timbers are packed in plastic and sealed with plastic rims. Recycle the plastic, rims and protecting beams underneath, according to local regulations.

Foundation

The most important aspect of the construction is a well-prepared foundation. It must be flat, com-pletely level and devoid of any movement even after the assembly work. Take special care of these requirements when building on areas where the ground retains water. In all cases a concrete
raft foundation is preferred. This spreads the constructions’ load over a wide area and suits all ground types. Your retailer can advise an alternative foundation method should a raft not be possible. When using construction blocks, slabs
or footings as foundation it should be made sure that the soil will
not move during frozen ground conditions. We recommend placing the foundation on, for example, a compacted and evened out bed
of gravel. Regardless of type of foundation it should be made sure that the subfloor construction is well ventilated. The foundation for the optional terrace must be level with the base for the cabin and be prepared carefully. If needed, seek advice from an expert or have a professional perform the foundation work.

If your cabin excludes a floor and you are building the log frame directly onto brick/blockwork, please add a felt bitumen strip between the undermost log and brick/block. Additionally the brick/blockwork should be 5-10mm smaller than the log frame so that rainwater falling along thewalls-won’twet the point of contact at the lowest log.

Door and window
The distance between sides of the door frame must be exactly the same at the top and the bottom.
It is very important that the cabin and the door frame are completely level to allow the door(s) to function properly. If the doors or windows do not seem to fit correctly in the opening, check the level of the foundation and the level of the building. These components will not function properly if they do not sit level. If necessary pack up the low corner to correct this fault.
Depending on the model, the accessory bag may contain adjustment plates for the hinges. If necessary, the position and distance of the door from the side frame can be adjusted by mounting one or more adjustment plates under the hinge(s). Some models have hinges that can be adjusted by screwing the hinge inwards or outwards as needed.
Be careful to install windows the right way up. Windows with hinges on the side assembled upside down will fall from the hinges when opened. Some windows are to be assembled with hinges at top. Avoid opening such too much, because it might also loosen from the hinges.
Lightly tighten the screws on the door and window fittings and the lock with hand tools.

Roof and floor boards
It is normal that the back side of the roof and floor boards has wane on it. It is not a defect but a charac-teristic of the product. Roof boards and floor boards have the same profile, therefore make sure you are using right boards for right purpose.
The boards will expand and contract depending upon the amount of moisture in the air, so leave a space of 1-1.5mm between each board. Roof boards are assembled the flat side downwards and the side with furrows upwards.

Covering material for roof
Covering material for the roof must be installed immediately. If this is excluded, temporary protection
is required. Only light material are suitable roof coverings. We rec-ommend shingles, roofing felt or tin roof for gable roofs. For models with plane roof, we recommend roofing felt or EPDM roofing. Follow the instructions supplied by the provider.

Protection against storm
Fasten the roof to the building and the cabin to the foundation and take special care in open areas where there is the possibility of heavy winds and storms. You will need extra fastening material excluded from the delivery.

Protection treatment
The timber used for the products LILLEVILLA-products has not
been treated, with the exception foundation beams, that has been treated against blue stain and moulding. Protection treatment of the building must be performed immediately after erecting the cabin as soon as the weather is suitable for it. The first treatment should be done with a with a colorless wood preservative that prevents the formation of mold and blue stain.
After this, a surface treatment is done either with a transparent stain or with an opaque target paint. The best result is achieved when the building is treated twice. The first treatment should be done when the building has been built and
the conditions are favorable. The second treatment is carried out the following year early in the summer, when the humidity is at its lowest and the wood is as dry as possible. In this case, possible drying stripes in the seams of the logs are covered.
As paint can be used transparent glaze or paint. Make sure the glaze/paint you are about to use
is suitable for log surfaces, and does not form a so-called plastic, non- breathing surface. Ask for more information from your local paintshop. The wood must be dry when it is treated, and the working conditions as well.
Also the interior of the building must be treated with wood preservative preventing the formation of mold and blue
stain, the inner corners especially carefully. Doors and windows must be treated from both sides.
Despite treatment, moisture can get in through corners, knots, splits and joints of the parts. This can be prohibited with silicon, if needed.

Maintenance

Safe long-term use of the building requires regular checking, possible reparation of the fastenings and inspecting the condition of the parts. Pay special attention to the roof construction, its covering material, doors and windows, foundation fastenings, the protec-tion against storm as well as surface treatment of any wooden parts. Failure to perform regular main-tenance can cause damage to the building or a safety risk to its user.

Regularly inspect the condition
of the protection treatment and re-new it when necessary. Inspect the bottom rails of the doors, win-dows and their frames, end surface of timbers and parts stressed by hard weather- or usage-related wearing.
Check the functioning of doors and windows, and adjust hinges when necessary. Check the silicon seals of doors and windows, renewing them when necessary.
It is very important to make sure that underneath the building is well- ventilated. Also installing ven-tilation grills (not included) on top of the walls is recommended to let moisture get out from the building.
Remove snow from the roof regularly.

Tools

For assembly you will need a hammer, a drill, a screwdriver
with different heads, a spirit level,
a tape measure, a spanner, glue and a saw. It is also good to have someone helping you with the installation. Check local authorities if a permission for construction is needed. Please bear in mind, that assembling requires a bit of experi-ence. If needed, ask for professional assistance.

Safety
Take care of safety and always follow the national safety regula-tions. Keep children away from the building site.

Material definitions
Wood is a natural material and therefore, knots, knot groups, cracks, hair cracks on the knots, resin and twisting are relevant features of the wood. This means that loosened knots or knot holes on edges, resin, knot cracks, dry spots and hair cracks that do not affect the structure, and twisting, if the twisted parts are still usable, are acceptable.

Planing errors and wane on the back of roof and floor boards are acceptable without restriction if the boards can be assembled so that the defects do not appear on the visible side.
The wood is a living material, and despite the technical drying it underwent before production, it shrinks when it dries during the summer and then it swells again during the autumn and winter. This can affect some gaps between the wall boards in the summer. This
is completely normal and there is nothing wrong with the product and thus no reason for a complaint. During the autumn and winter,
the wood swells again when it absorbs moisture from the air, and then the gaps between the boards disappear. Walls that have been painted with dark paint dry faster and stronger than lighter walls, and this also affects gaps between the wall boards. It is important that the wood is protected from moisture and from direct sunlight during the entire assembly process.

Procedure in case of defects or faults

If you have something to complain, please immediately contact the place of purchase to make a written claim via the re-seller. If the assem-ling is begun or continued, it means that the customer has accepted the parts.
An imperfect claim will not be handled but returned back for fulfilling. The parts complained must be available for checking made by producer or re-seller. If the claim is entitled, producer takes care of delivery costs to the re- seller during moderate period. Producer and re-seller reserve rights to decide all the arrangements concerning the claim. They may also visit
the building site, if they think it is necessary. Producer or re-seller is not responsible for any direct or indirect costs or damages due to a defected or missing part. Producer’s liability limits only to the delivery of new parts to the re-seller. If the claim proves later to be groundless, customer is responsible to compen-sate all the costs caused.

Building instruction

Selection of the door installation location
The door can be installed on both side walls, either in the front or back part of the building. Take this into account when you start installing the walls.

• The drawings are referential and only the partnumbers represent the cabin model.
• Read through the whole manual before you start building your cabin

Begin by placing 5 foundation beams in a square on the surface, see image below. Nail beams together. When the first layer of logs is installed, check cross measurement and attach logs to beams with nails or screws. (Note: predrill holes

Assembling of foundation

Checking the cross-measurement of the log frame Attaching the first timbers to the foundation beams

Walls, window and door

Assemble logs to approximately 1 meter height, or about 5–6 rows. If you have logs with minor imperfections, or that has twisted of drying, place them in the lower rows. Due to the nature of the material, sometimes logs can get twisted. In that case you can straighten them for example with a clamp. Try to bend it to its shape gently, while taking a pause from work for example. It should retrieve its original shape.
A warped log can be straightened using an arm lever made of a plank (about 1 meter long) having a notch equal to the size of the thickness of the log. A standard clamp with two pieces of wood can also be used. This will be screwed onto the timber. Be careful not to damage the log. Some twisting of the log is natural. Twisted logs are recommended to be assembled in the lower rows.

Assembly of door Frame

GB Fix the boards to both sides of the framews with 4,0x40mm screws and with glue (glue not included) as shown in the drawing below. Pre-drill before screwing!

Assembly of door Frame

• Fix the frame boards to the wall logs.
• Install the supplied hinge plates between the door and the hinge (1 pc/hinge).

Preparation for installing the roof

After assembling the walls, assemble the gable triangles. Depending on the model it can come in one or several pieces(usually 3 pieces), that must be assembled
first together before mounting to the frame. Place the gable triangles carefully to their place before fixing them with screws. It is advisable to be at least two people for this step. Screw the gable triangle to the topmost side wall log with 70 mm screws. Do the same thing with both gable triangles.
Please note that the last logs on both side walls are cut to follow the inclination of the roof. One log has an inclination to the left, the other one to the right.

Assembling the gable triangle

GB Attach side walls to logs C5 and D3. Assemble bottom chord of roof truss E 15 and attach top chord of roof truss E 16 and vertical post of roof truss E 17 to the bottom chord of roof truss with screws (image E). You can also carefully nail bottom chord of roof truss to logs C5 and D3. This extra roof truss gives support to the purlins. Finally assemble carefully gable triangles, make sure not to drop them. Purlins and gable triangles. Install the purlins in its slot in the gable triangle. Attach the purlins to gable triangles with nails.

Assembly of purlins

Roof

Installation of roof

Before laying the roof boards, check the cross measure of the frame and make sure that the door opens correctly (if already installed). We recommend you start laying the boards starting from the facade, continuing towards the rear. The grooved side of the roof boards must always point outwards. The roof boards should be attached side-
by-side leaving 1 or 2 mm of space between each board. Use the same technique for the rest of the roof.

Assembly of wall support

Fasten the wall supports to each back and rear wall timber with 6x70mm screws. The wall supports can be installed either inside or outside the building.

Corner posts

Finishing

Nail board to door frame A6, A7, A8 and A9 in logs on top and on side of door. Attach also board to door frame A10 (see image F). Note that this affects the width of the door opening. After this you can begin the assembly of the possible garage door. Attach the support beam for garage door E18 to the purlin E2 (see image G and photo below).

Adjusting the door hinges

GB Adjusting vertically
First screw off the covering hat of the hinge (1). Loosen the fixing screw if there is one (2). The door is lifted upwards by turning the adjustment screw clockwise with a hexagonal key AV5 (3). Adjust the hinges so that both of them are carrying the weight of the door. Finally, tighten the screw (2) and screw the covering hat in place.

Adjusting sideways
First loosen the fixing screws of the hinge of the door blade with a couple of turns (4). The door moves to the lock side by turning the adjusting screws (5) with a hexagonal key AV4 clockwise. It is important to adjust all the screws so that the hinge will be in correct position. When finished adjusting, tighten the fixing screws (4) again. The accessories bag contains extra adjustment plates for extra sideways adjustment needs.
