(
See FigureS 20 and 21
)
First refer to flooring manufacturer’s preparation procedures regarding moisture
content and floor preparation before laying the flooring boards.
To correctly install hardwood flooring, it must be properly racked before being nailed
into place. After placing the first board, follow these instructions to rack the flooring:
1. Place flooring groove onto the tongue of previously installed board.
2. Use the rubber end of the mallet to “pop” the tongue into the groove (
see Figure 20
).
3. Use the metal end of the mallet to rack the board tightly against adjacent board. The
metal end is tapered away from top of flooring to prevent unwanted damage to top
surface (
see Figure 21
).
FIrINg tHe NaIler
NOTE:
Make sure the rubber bumper on the flooring nailer is in the up position before
adding the air hose, if not, the nailer may cycle (see Figure 15).
1. Connect the air supply to the nailer.
2. Load fasteners (see Loading/Unloading the Nailer section).
Do NOT fire the tool unless it is securely placed. If tool is notsecurely
placed, there is a risk of flying fasteners that may cause death or serious
injury.
An improperly functioning tool must not be used. Do not actuate
the tool unless the tool is placed firmly against the work piece.
3. Place the tool on the floor (
see Figure 22
) with the shoe plate resting on the racked
floor board. Make sure the fastener ejection nozzle is firmly placed against the board
tongue.
