"Klick"
Installation Instructions:
BEFORE
YOU BEGIN:
Materials required: PE sheeting and adhesive tape. Tools Required:
Folding rule (tape measure), pencil, compass saw, hammer, straight
edge, tapping block, spacing wedges.
STEP
1: Shorten the groove check on the boards required for the
first row by the part protruding over the area to be covered.
"Klick" these boards in sideways using tapping block and align
the first row of boards exactly with distance wedges. The interval
to the wall and to all fixed components must be at least 3/8"
(10mm) (with large rooms at least 1/16th" per yard of room width).
The wedges are to be removed once the entire floors installed.
The boards should be installed lengthwise to the light incidence.
The only exception is with existing wood plank floors, install
perpendicular to the direction of the existing floor.

STEP
2: Once the first row has been aligned percisely using a straight
edge, begin installing the second row with the remaining piece
of the last board of the first row. The front joints (cross joints)
of the boards from row to row must however be offset by at least
1". We recommend that the joints be centered on the plank of the
previous row. Set the first board slightly diagonal as illustrated
and "klick" this in by pressing against and lightly rocking. Proceed
in the same manner with the second board and drive the front joints
of this board into the first row (and so on) by using the tapping
block.

STEP
3: Where there are heating pipes coming out of the floor cut
around pipes allowing for expansion. Then cover with radiator
rosettes.

STEP
4: As shown in the diagram (below), shorten door frames and
doors to the height of the floor.

STEP
5: Fitting the last row: measure distance left (taking into
account the wedge space) between the wall and the last row installed.
Mark and cut the strip to be installed lengthwise. "Klick" and
fit as before.

STEP
6: The last row is driven in using the cramping tool.

STEP
7: Skirting boards, transition strips for completing your
floor. Felt for table and chair leg bottoms are important details
to protect your new floor. Your specialist dealer will help you
with any advice you need and has a wide range of products available.
