Installation manual – English
Storm braces
(NB! Not included in some house option kits!)
Attach the storm braces (if included in
the supplied kit) to the inner sides of
the front (2 units) and back (2 units)
walls with the supplied bolts. It is
important for the logs to be drilled
through in advance. Please keep the
distances indicated in the drawing so
that no problems occur due to wood
swelling or diminishing.
ADVICE
: Make sure that the storm
braces are attached to the apex log
from above and to the middle of the
first full-length wall log from below. If
necessary, shorten the upper ends of
the slats.
Do not turn the screws tightly so wood
can further swell or diminish.
With the house having settled, you
should adjust the attachments so the
wall logs can settle.
