Check all planks for visible defects in optimal light conditions, both before
and during installation. Planks with defects must not be used.
For the most natural floor pattern, make sure to mix the designs of the planks across the floor.
The end joints should be staggered min. 1/3 of a plank when installing the floorboards.
The first and the last floorboard in each row should have a minimum lenght of 1/3 of a plank.
Start the first row with the tongue sides to the wall, and put the spacers for the expansion gap of 8-10mm.
At the end of the row, to cut a plank in the exact length, put a plank on the reverse side against the wall – do not forget the
expansion gap. Mark where the plank has to be cut and use a T-square to draw the cutting line.
If using a hand saw, cut on the pattern side, if using an electrical jigsaw, always cut on the back side of the plank.
A sharp saw blade is a must for the best result!
The DuoLoc system allows you to choose the laying :
A Without tapping block : connect the second row on the short sides first. Make sure the planks are perfectly
aligned. Then lift the plank to an angle of +/-25° and lock the long side in the previous row.
