General Advice /// General Advice Installation has to be carried out by an instructed professional. /// Do not cover the floor with plastic foil or the like at any stage (installed or not installed). Condensation water or accumulated water can result in staining /// Standard woodworking machines can be used for processing /// Sand with 24 to max. 60 grit sandpaper /// Only sand in longitudinal direction /// Standard PU-adhesive (D3 or D4) can be used for bonding Legal Advice: Decking made of and substructure have been especially developed for terrace floor covering. These products have no building-authority approval and may therefore not be used for supporting constructive purposes. Local building codes have to be observed accordingly. Please also comply with the installation guide and technical information. Storage /// Please store Products made of products horizontally on plain ground /// Should the floorboards be stored on beams, the spacing may not exceed 30 cm /// Pre-Treatment Application of the color glaze In order to obtain a smooth and best result in color, the glaze should be applied at constant surrounding conditions. We therefore recommend to apply the glaze on each floorboard individually before installation. Temperature approx. 5-25 C, relative air humidity approx. 50-60 %. We recommend to apply the finish before installation! HINT: A broad (surface) brush should be used for application. Do not apply the glaze at direct exposure to sunlight or imminent rain. If the glaze is applied after installation, please observe the above mentioned advice and paint not more than 4-5 m 2 at once. In this case, we recommend to entrust an expert. 4

BER Installation UNS /// Installation 1. General installation details /// Please ensure a slope of approx. 2% for adequate water drainage. In the case of frost, water in the hollow chambers can cause damages. To avoid this, the ends can be closed with fitting battens. /// Only use fastening material that is suitable for outdoor use (e.g. stainless steel screws). 2. Installation patterns It is advisable to determine the installation pattern in advance, as the substructure must be configured accordingly. Installation examples: expansion joint Please always allow for the linear expansion of Profiles made of. This depends solely on temperature and not - like in the case of wood - on air humidity. A spacing of 1.5 mm per running meter floorboards has to be considered for linear expansion at a material temperature of 20 C. Please refer to below chart showing the expansion at deviating material temperatures. 3. Substructure a) Joist 38 x 25 mm The joist made of 38 x 25 mm on solid, continuous surface, e.g. concrete Fixation with spacing of approx. 40 cm Please ensure constant material temperatures when cutting the floorboards to size. Cutting should be carried out at constant conditions - indoors or in the shade. Hint: A slight 45 bezel can be added to the floorboard ends. This conceals the expansion joints. Max. spacing 35 cm (centered) for DKG 12522 and FPH 14020 respectively General points to be observed for EACH substructure e.g. wooden beams: /// Ensure firm soil and adequate water drainage. This applies to the area of the substructure and/or the hollow chambers. For closed substrates a slope of min. 2% must be maintained. Due to adhesive forces, however, moisture may still form on the surface of the floorboard. /// Firmly connect joists with subgrade. /// In case, the joists cannot be firmly screwed with the subgrade (e.g. roof insulation), sufficient fixing of the entire flooring needs to be ensured (please clarify details with your architect). 6
ÜBER Installation UNS /// Installation b) Joist 70 x 38 mm Joist 70 x 38 mm on solid, selective subsoil, e.g. washed-out concrete slabs in gravel bed Fixation with spacing of approx. 50-60 cm Subsequently, sand and then apply the glaze 4. Installation of first floorboard with clip system b) Version 2 (visibly screwed) Max. spacing 40 cm Max. spacing 40 cm (centered) for DKG 12522 and FPH 14020 respectively Pre-Drill the floorboard with a 2 mm drill. The first floorboard is visibly screwed to the substructure from the top, close to the fillet, with two terrace screws. Predrill the floorboard with a 2 mm drill. Carefully turn in flat-headed terrace screw. Generally other substructures may be used (e.g. wooden beams). Adequacy for intended use has to be verified. Installation with clip system 4. Installation of the first floorboard with clip system a) Variante 1 Pre-drill the floorboard with a 2 mm drill. Drill a hole of approx. 1 cm depth with a 12 mm drill. Turn in the stainless steel screw. Insert some glue into the hole, insert the dowel and cut flush. 7
BER Installation UNS /// Installation 5. Installation of subsequent floorboard with clip Apply the clip. IMPORTANT: THE RESYSTA LOGO ON THE CLIP HAS TO POINT IN THE DIRECTION OF THE FLOORBOARD! Screw in the clip. Caution: avoid overtightening the screw by setting the torque accordingly. 6. Fixation In order to control the direction of expansion of the planks made of, each floorboard needs to be fixed. This can either be done at the end of a floorboard or axial. Alternative A = Pinning at the end Alternative B = Pinning at the centre Fixing two floorboards in longitudinal direction: Angular insertion of floorboard. Press the floorboard down. Fixing more than two floorboards in longitudinal direction: Tap carefully and completely into place. Gently tighten the clip again. The fixing can be done concealed or with screws for terrace construction. When completely fixing the floorboards with screws for terrace construction instead of clips, the above mentioned hints do not apply. 8
