Laying instruction

(1) Cut profile to length

Determine the required length of the top profile and cut the profile to length. The basic profile can be cut 1 cm shorter.

(2) Gluing the base section

It is best if you glue the base section onto the subsurface. We recommend a polyurethane adhesive on perfect screed or wood, an epoxy resin or silan modified polymers (SMP, for example Bostik Superfix) on poor screed and friable expansion joints.

(3) Align the base section

Apply the adhesive and align the base section correctly. (Ieave an expansion joint), then remove any excess. Allow the adhesive to dry completely before fixing the upper section of the trim.

(4) Engaging profile

Press the upper section into the base section until it engages slightly. The flexible web acts like a ball-and-socket-joint in the clamping channel. The section adapts easily to the height and inclination of the floor covering.

(5) Fixing of top section

Knock the upper section into the lower using a hammer and a block of wood to spread the blow. The section engages until it sits tight on both sides.

(6) Dismantling

Push a spatula under the section and lever up the upper section over a legth of 20 cm. Carefully pull off the section. After the maintenance or other work has been completed, the upper section can be inserted again into the base section.
