MOHAWK® LAMINATE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

General

Mohawk® flooring panels us Uniclic® technology, a revolutionary system for installing laminate floors without

using glue. The panels can be clicked together simply, thanks to the ingenious shape of the tongue and groove.

Uniclic® is unique because you can install the planks in two different ways:

Method A ( Angle-In installation method

): Position the panel to be installed at an angle of 20 to 30° to the panel

already installed. Move the panel gently up and down while exerting forward pressure. The panels will

automatically click into place. You can either insert the tongue into the groove, or the groove on to the tongue.

The tongue into the groove is the easiest method. (See diagrams 1A – 1B – 1C.)

Method B (Flat Installation method ):With Uniclic® you can also tap the panels into each other without lifting. For

this method you must use the special Uniclic® tapping block. The planks should not be joined with a single tap

and the tapping block should be sitting flat on the floor. To avoid damaging the panels you must tap them

together gradually. (See diagrams 2A – 2B.) Use this method only in cases where you are unable to use the Angle-

In method ( see below).The rest of your floor should be installed using the Angle-In method.

Tools for installing the floor

For best results, it is essential that you follow the installation instructions exactly. Besides the regular tools for

installing laminate floors (i.e. hammer, saw, pencil, measure) you will also need the following accessories.

- Uniclic installation kit (pull bar, spacers (1-8 mm / 0.039”- 0.315”) and Uniclic®-adapted tapping block)

- underlayment system

- maintenance products

The use of accessories other than Mohawk® flooring accessories might cause damage to the Mohawk® flooring

floor. In such case, the guarantee provided by Mohawk® flooring will be void. We recommend using only

Mohawk® flooring accessories as these have been specially designed and tested for use with Mohawk® flooring

panels.

It will generally be necessary to saw some flooring panels during installation. To obtain a clean cut, the pattern

side should face down when you use a jigsaw, saber saw or circular handsaw and up when you use a handsaw,

table saw or a crosscut saw.

10 focus points

1. Thanks to the Uniclic® system, the floor floats and is installed without glue. You can walk on the floor during

and immediately after installation.

2. With Uniclic® panels you can choose where you want to begin. Think about what will be the easiest way to

install the floor. We will demonstrate the installation for right-handed people, from left to right. You can work

in the other direction if you want.
