Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Prepare: Ensure the surface where the worktop will be placed is level and stable.
- Finishing (Recommended): Before installation, apply a food-safe oil finish to the entire surface of the worktop, including edges and underside. Allow it to dry thoroughly according to the oil manufacturer's instructions. This step is crucial for protecting the wood from stains, moisture, and wear.
- Installation: Secure the worktop to your chosen base or cabinet structure using appropriate screws and mounting hardware suitable for both the worktop material and the base.
Compatibility:
This worktop is designed for indoor use and can be combined with various types of cabinet bases, desk legs, or workstation frames. Ensure any mounting hardware used is compatible with solid wood and does not damage the material.
Care:
- Clean spills immediately with a dry cloth.
- For general cleaning, use a slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Periodically reapply oil finish (every 6-12 months, depending on usage) to maintain the wood's protection and appearance.
