Setup and Assembly

Follow these steps to assemble your Yclty Outdoor Wood Garden Bench:

1. Unpack Components: Carefully remove all parts from the packaging. Lay them out on a soft, flat surface to prevent damage.
2. Attach Legs to Seat: Align one cast iron leg with the pre-drilled holes on one end of the wooden seat. Insert the provided bolts through the holes and secure them with washers and nuts. Hand-tighten initially. Repeat for the second leg on the opposite end of the seat.

Maintenance

Proper maintenance will extend the life and appearance of your garden bench:

• Cleaning: The waterproof surface of the wood slats can be easily cleaned with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a mild soap solution and rinse thoroughly. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
• Inspection: Periodically check all bolts and nuts for tightness. Re-tighten if any looseness is detected.
• Wood Care: While the wood is treated for outdoor use, applying a wood sealant or stain annually can further protect it from weathering and maintain its appearance.
• Storage: During extreme weather conditions or prolonged periods of non-use, consider covering the bench or storing it in a sheltered area to maximize its lifespan.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your bench, refer to the following common solutions:

• Bench is Wobbly: Ensure all assembly bolts are fully tightened. Check that the bench is placed on a level surface.
• Wood Discoloration: Exposure to sun and rain can cause natural wood to change color over time. Regular application of a wood sealant can help mitigate this.
• Rust on Cast Iron: While the cast iron is painted for protection, prolonged exposure to moisture can lead to rust. Clean any rust spots with a wire brush and apply a rust-inhibiting paint.
