2. Recommended Method for Full Floor Installation
PNEG-222 48' Cor-Lok and Cut-Lok Flooring 9

4. Install flooring starting at the bin wall on the opposite side of the unload auger. Floor planks should be
placed perpendicular to the unload auger with the outside edge the correct distance from the center
of the bin.
(See Figure 7A on Page 17.)
Be sure the flat edge of the floor plank is facing the bin wall
and the open channel edge is facing towards the center of the bin.
(See Figure 2C.)
Position the
supports for the first/shortest floor plank according to the number of bin rings and corrugation as
shown in the illustrations
on Pages 20-30
or stated in the charts
on Pages 31-32
. Attach the flashing
to flooring and bin wall to hold plank in place. (
See Page 14
for flashing installation.)
5. POSITION THE NEXT ROW OF SUPPORTS ACCORDING TO THE CHALK LINES and support
layout. The straight tab should “snap” under the first (previous) floor piece. After the supports in the
row are correctly positioned, install the next floor piece by hooking the open channel edge under the
outside hooks of the floor supports. Push down sharply on the edge of the floor piece until it snaps
into the previous floor piece. (See Figure 2C.) Continue this process for the rest of the floor cutting
planks for center and intermediate wells as needed. See Figure 5A on Page 15 for center well
support locations.
NOTE: Whenever there is more than Dimension “B” divided by three inches (B/3") of plank unsupported
beside the bin wall, there should be a support on that plank or a support on each of the
planks adjacent to it such that no more than Dimension “B” divided by three inches (B/3") is
unsupported. For example: 2.66" bin with 8 rings has a “B” dimension of 22". Take 22"/3" = 7.33"
(Round to 7"). Therefore, there should be no more than 7" of unsupported floor plank.
IMPORTANT: First piece of flooring must start at the
proper distance from centerline of bin. Refer to floor
layout on Page 17. First piece may need to be
trimmed for length to fit at the proper location.
