STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS
- Keep panels dry and stored indoors in original packaging until installation.
- Store Stonewood panels on a smooth, dry, flat surface, making sure there are no bends or bowing in the load.
- Do not store directly on cold concrete floors as moisture may migrate.
- Do not store under heating units or air conditioning units.
- Keep load stored within outer wrap until use. Remove pallet straps once load is moved to storage area.
- Reseal plastic wrap if partial load is used.
- Keep foam dividers in place. Damage resulting from improper storage will void the warranty.
HANDLING AND SAWING INSTRUCTIONS
Please take care not to scratch the surface of the panel during handling, machining and installation. The UV protective surface can be scratched if care is not taken when handing and/or machining the panels. The panels are shipped with protective foam dividers between each panel. This foam barrier should always be used when stacking panels. Panels should be cut using a track saw on a guild rail with a blade designed for cutting aluminum / plastic. Fiberesin recommends the Festool TS 55 REQ Plunge Cut Track Saw and Festool 496307 Aluminum/Plastic saw blade for reference.
SINGLE-SIDED PANELS
There is one A side and one B side to the panels. The A side is meant to face away from the building. Both sides may have the same color/pattern. This does not mean the panel has two sides of equal appearance quality. The B side could have finish or gloss imperfections. Installers are responsible for making sure that the appropriate side is visible. The panels are shipped A side up and there is an identifying sticker on the B side.
Note: The construction buildup of the two sides of the panel is identical. This provides uniform balance and weather/UV protection.
