Remarks : 

Please pay attention to the technical data sheet and safety data sheet issued by the floor covering manufacturer.
Outside Germany relevant national regulations are to be applied which have to be known by the user.

During the setting time, avoid direct loads of sunshine and heat.
Allow the floor covering to be acclimatized before laying. The laying materials must be relaxed and plane.
In case of installing filler-free, vapour-permeable floor coverings please assure an airing time of approx. 15 minutes. Never install the floor covering into the wet adhesive as the moisture of the adhesive negatively influences the backing of the floor covering!
In case of installing very rigid textile or needle felt floor coverings we recommend running self-made tests or use Eurocol 609 Eurostar Tex.

Wear protective gloves / eye protection.

* The mentioned values have been established in our laboratory and must be considered as guidelines in view of possible variations in climatic circumstances, subfloor compositions and layer thickness.

Consumption:
Approx ca. 450 g/m².

Substrate:
  • The substrate must be pressure- and tension-resistant, permanently dry, free of cracks and dust, even and free of layers that reduce adhesion.
  • Adhesion-reducing layers, old material residues must be removed by suitable mechanical measures in accordance with the specifications of DIN 18365.
  • For levelling the substrate use recommended Eurocol levelling compounds/primers.
  • The installation materials to be used must be suitable for the substrate and the intended use.


User manual:
  • Before use, temper the product according to the processing conditions.
  • Stir before use!
  • Depending on the type of flooring, apply the adhesive with a notched trowel to the subfloor over the entire surface and evenly without adhesive nests. The back of the flooring must be completely wetted with adhesive in scored format. Worn-out spatulas need to be replaced in time to guarantee the minimum adhesive consumption.
  • Coverings must be laid in the adhesive bed which is still wet.
  • The necessary flash-off time depends on the amount of adhesive (toothed strip), temperature, humidity and the absorbency of the subfloor.
    When finger-testing, the adhesive must have a soft centre, must be tacky, pull threads, but must not smear.
  • Depending on the room climate and the absorbency of the substrate, the air-conditioned covering should be pushed into the adhesive bed immediately or after the flash-off time specified in the technical data, rubbed in and rolled on. Air pockets under the covering must be avoided or removed immediately.
  • Head ends and non-flat covering edges must always be rolled in.
  • If necessary, rub or roll the top ends, stove bars, seams or other hollow areas again approx. 15 minutes after installation.

Working conditions: 

At least 15 °C floor temperature,
at least 18°C material and room temperature,
35-75% relative humidity, recommendet <65%.
