Installation & maintenance instructions B:hard – Multilayer engineered plank For optimum advice, fulfillment of all inspection obligations and professional installation, please contact an installation specialist. The specifications of the currently valid standards, the general rules of technology and the guidelines on the manufacturer's data sheets and instructions apply to the installation and subsequent use. In order to obtain a warranty and the best installation results, the following installation and regulations must be observed without fail. It is extremely important to read and understand...

In addition to the moisture test, also observe the requirements for the flatness of the subfloor. According to ÖNORM DIN 18202 "Tolerances in building construction", these are a maximum deviation of 4 mm at an inside micrometer of 1 m. With a measuring point distance of e.g. 1 m, the subfloor is to be allowed a maximum allowance of 4 mm according to the standard. Measuring point distance Inside micrometer ATTENTION! – 3 mm for increased requirements. According to ÖNORM B 2218 "Installation of wooden floors" – the flatness tolerances according to ÖNORM DIN 18202 – table 3, line 4 "increased requirements"...

Wooden substrates All wood and wood-mix panels without surface treatment are suitable, provided that they are flat and free of structures (plywood or OSB panels, for example). To prevent mold growth or other problems, the wood moisture content of the substructure should not exceed 12 % and cavities under the structure must be adequately ventilated. The installed level must not yield or vibrate under load. Fasten all loose parts permanently. Do not use a vapor barrier on wooden substrates! We recommend our tested and approved Stöckl "Universol Standard 2.0" underlay mat for this purpose. The direction...

Then properly align the first two, installed rows to the walls, observing the determined wall distance, and place the spacers. Note that a distance of at least 15 mm must be maintained from all rising structural elements (walls, columns, heating pipes, etc.). Failure to do so will result in a clamped condition of the construction, further in bulging of the floor covering and possibly destruction of the floor. Install the first two rows according to the illustrated scheme: 1. Place element in a left corner of the room. 2. Shorten the panel and align it straight using a straightedge or angle it...

Full surface bonding The temperature of the subfloor during installation must be at least 15° C, max. 28° C, and the relative humidity 45 – 65 %. For full surface bonding, neither a PE-foil nor an insulating carpet pad is required. Mark the area to be glued on the first three rows using a chalk line to apply the glue after the elements have been reassembled. Proceed only after the initial rows are firmly fixed. Never apply more adhesive than you can process in the time specified by the manufacturer. Therefore, also avoid unnecessarily long interruptions during installation. All processing guidelines...

Cleaning oiled wooden surfaces If possible, the floor should be dry cleaned with a powerful vacuum cleaner. If adhering dirt can no longer be removed with dry cleaning, the floor must be damp mopped. To do this, mix lukewarm water with wooden floor soap. For 5 liters of water use about 50 ml of soap. With this lye and a wrung cotton mop, wipe the floor well. For larger areas or very heavy dirt, use a second bucket of clear water to wash out the wipe. Furthermore, you can use intensive cleaner in case of very heavy dirt Do NOT use too much water during cleaning, as this could cause the floor to...

PALLMANN PALL-X 350 • Both containers must be at the recommended room temperature (20 °C) and shaken well before use. • Thoroughly mix component A with component B in a mixing ratio of 3:1. Then allow mixture to stand for 5 minutes. • Apply PALL-X 350 evenly and under pressure using the APPLICATION ROLLER SOLVENTBASED 4MM/25CM. Consumption: approx. 20 – 35 ml/m². Care must be taken to ensure that the entire substrate is evenly wetted and that no residues remain on the surface. • Drying time until recoating: approx. 1 hour but within max. 4 hours. The treated surface can then be over-sealed with...

Important notes When laying in several rooms, in L-shaped rooms, passage areas and in large areas from 10x8 m, a movement joint profile must be used. Likewise, in the case of contiguous areas, e.g. with several heating circuits, the movement joints provided by the customer must also be incorporated in the surface covering. These can be closed with joint profiles (e.g. multi-part transition profile that does not clamp the floor). Care must be taken to ensure that the movement joints with rising structural elements, e.g. supporting pillars and walls, are functional. We recommend the use of cork...
