1. Begin the second row of planks with the piece cut from the last piece in the first row. If the piece is shorter that 8″ cut a
new plank in half, and use it to begin the second row. Whenever practical, use
the piece cut from the preceding row to start the next row. End joints of all
boards should be staggered 8″ or more and grout lines on planks with tile visuals
must be aligned.
2. Install the long end of the first board at an angle to the board in the previous
row. Keep this board at its natural angle slightly raised off the subfloor. Use a
scrap piece of laminate to support the row if needed.
3. Continue installing full boards in the second row by angling the short end of
the next board in the row to lock into the previous board. Position the board
so that the long side of the board is close to boards in the previous row and
overlapping the groove of the boards in the previous row.
4. Angle up and push forward until the boards lock together.
5. Continue installing full boards in the second
and subsequent rows until you reach the wall on your right.
6. Mark the last piece, cut and install.
After all boards in the row are installed, press or walk all boards
flat to the subfloor to begin the next row.
7. Use a pull bar when necessary to ensure joints are tight.
