Aussie Hen Haven Assembly Instructions
Nesting Box Assembly Instructions
Tools Required: A rubber or nylon mallet is needed. If using a regular hammer, proceed cautiously to avoid damaging the parts.
Step 1: Preparation
Begin by laying out all parts on a flat surface. You should have seven pieces in total, along with a bag containing 24 screws.
Step 2: Front Piece Assembly
Align the front piece with the base, ensuring the countersink holes face outward for a neat finish. Gently tap into place using a mallet.
Step 3: Sides Assembly
Attach the side pieces without forcing them. If you are having to force the parts together, stop, realign, and gently tap the pieces together. Start with the right side as shown.
Once the right side is in place, follow the same steps for the left side.
Step 4: Back and Top Attachment
Now, attach the back piece first, followed by securing the top piece in place.
Step 5: Curtain Support
Attach the curtain support at the front, ensuring it's properly aligned.
Step 6: Final Assembly
Use the provided screws and your cordless drill or screwdriver to secure everything together. For longevity and protection, painting with a quality exterior grade paint is recommended, especially focusing on the joins to prevent bug infestations.
