⚠️ Please Read Before Use: Safety Notice
Boulder Cube is a handcrafted training tool made from real wood.
To ensure safe use and maintain product quality, please read the following carefully. By using Boulder Cube, you acknowledge and accept the unique characteristics that come with handcrafted products.
Keep it Safe: Use on a Soft Surface
Always use Boulder Cube on a soft, padded surface — such as a carpet, bed, sofa, or bouldering mat.
Hard surfaces can cause serious damage. Always use a padded surface.
Don’t Overtighten When Attaching Holds
Always set the top black button on the driver so that the number “1” is visible.
When tightening holds, apply only light pressure — just enough to keep the hold from moving. Excessive torque can damage the insert nuts inside the cube.
Cube Care Instructions
• Marks may appear after attaching and removing holds.
• Gently sand the surface with the included soft sandpaper, then wipe it clean with a damp tissue.
• Avoid using rough sandpaper — it may damage the cube’s surface.
