PROFILDECK ALUMINIUM SUB-FRAME SYSTEM
4. Finishing
3. Pedestal Risers Installation
Place the pedestals on the marked positions on the ground.
• Clip the adaptor onto the top of the pedestal.
• Begin with the corner pedestals to level the sub-frame and
then lay and level the others.
- When laying parallel profiles always ensure there is a
pedestal underneath the connections points along with
pedestals at the recommended spacing.
- When installing with noggins lay the pedestal at the
recommended spacing.
• Clip the profile to the adaptor.
• Connect the adaptor to the profile using the two notches and
2 Profildeck screws. One fixing at each end of the length is
enough.
• Use the nut on the pedestal to simply adjust to the desired
height.
FOR DECKING:
• Lay the boards or the tiles according the defined pattern.
• Apply the decking cover tape on the decking side of the
aluminium profile (Ensure surface is clean and dry before
application). For best results, peel off the backing strip
progressively as you apply the tape.
• Lay the decking leaving a consistent space between the
boards. Fix using a 5.5 x 45 mm screw and tighten to max of
7n torque. (The tightening torque is 18 on 20 for an 18 volts
screwdriver).
• If using the invisible fixing system FixeGo®.
- Place a cleat at the end of each profile, the cleat should be at
the centre of the profile and positioned 5 mm in from the end.
- Pre drill with a 3 mm metal drill.
- The tightening torque is 10 on 20 for an 18 volts screwdriver.
- Fix the cleat with a 4 x 25 mm screw (supplied in Fixego kit).
