Step 3 – Install the First Row
Saw off the tongue from the length and width of the first plank. Create expansion gap by placing spacers be-tween the planks and
the walls for expansion.
Saw off the tongues from only the length of the remaining planks to be installedin the first row..
Use the angling method to connect and lock the joints between the planks. Remember to use the spacer for maintaining expansion
gap.
The last plank may have to be cut to size. See diagrams below.
Step 4 – Install the Second and Remaining Rows
Stagger the end joints by at least 6 inches.
Use the remain of the cut off board if it is 12 inches or longer. If not, cut off at least 6 inches from the left side of the next row’s
starting board.
Use the angling technique to lock the long edge together.
Use drop lock method to lock the joint along the short edge.
Repeat the steps until the row is complete.
On the last row, you may have to cut along the length of the planks to make it fit.
Step 5 – Tight Spaces
In tight spaces use the pull bar and a hammer. See diagrams below.
