1. Start in the left-hand corner of the room with transverse as well as longitudinal
tongue towards the wall. (Fig.1)
2. Place the next parquet against the first one and place it right on the floor.
Follow this pattern to the end of the first row. (Fig.2) Cut the last parquet
in the first row to the required size and do not forget to leave the expansion
1 2 gaps. Transversal gaps must overlap by at least 60 cm. (Fig.3)
3. Place the board against the preceding parquet. Push it forward while placing in
on the floor. (Fig.4)
4. Place the wedge, see Fig. 16, under the last board, which was installed with
the short end. (Fig.5) Place the short end of a new board against it and lay
the board. (Fig.6)
5. Use a tapping block to tap carefully on the long end so that it clicks into
the joint. (Fig.7)
6. Place the board carefully down on the base until it lies flat. Hint: move
the beater gently along the long joint and the board will fit in smoothly.

7. If three boards have been laid, the distance between the boards and the wall
may be adjusted. Place wedges between the floor and the wall. (Fig.9)
8. If the wall is curved, cut the boards in the first row to match the wall shape.
Follow the wall shape along the placed boards. Release the boards in the first
row; grip them on the longer side and pull up while tapping lightly on the joint.
Cut as required. (Fig.10)
9. Replace the adjusted boards from left to right. Lay the first board and make
sure that the next board fits in the groove on the shorter side. Use the tapping
block to tap on the shorter sides. Follow the pattern with all other boards
5 6 in the row. Do not forget to insert distance wedges between the floor and
the walls. (Fig.11)
10. Cut the last row of boards to the proper width. Bore the holes where heating
pipes will pass through. The holes should be 20 mm larger than the pipe
diameter. Cut according to the picture and glue the cut-off piece back in place
where the board was originally. Cover with a wooden socket. (Fig.12)
11. Where doorjambs need to be cut, measure the correct height using a piece
of board. If you need to tap the board lengthways, protect the joint from the
short end of the board with a scrap piece. (Fig.13)
12. The end row including the last board is cut to the proper width. Place the last
7 8
board on the preceding one with about 5 mm distance from the wall. Mark
the board using a scrap piece or a T-square. Lay the cut-to-size piece. Install
baseboards and transition strips. Don‘t forget to remove the expansion spacers
and make allowance for floor movement. (Fig.14)
13. If the circumstances prevent you from sliding the next floor piece in at an
angle, remove 2/3 of the spline. Then apply the white glue and slide the piece
horizontally in place. (Fig.15)
MAGNUM - MagLock floor can be easily disassembled which enables easy replacement
9 10 of damaged pieces during use.
Glued joint
Items 2, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 are identical with the Maglock assembly.
1. Start in the left-hand corner of the room, with transverse as well as longitudinal
groove towards the wall.
11 12 3. Always apply the glue along the upper side of the groove so that it seeps slightly
on the surface after pushing the pieces together.
4. Push the parquets together using a hammer with weight approx. 800g and
a tapping block at least 300 mm long.

Instructions for installation
Instructions for floor laying over floor heating
MAGNUM parquets can be laid over the hot-water floor heating; the installation may
only result in the risk of expansion of individual pieces (mainly with maple, acacia,
tigerwood and rochades; due to significant expansion we do not recommend beech
and hornbeam wood). The surface temperature of parquets must not exceed 27°C in
any place; this also applies to the surroundings of heaters.
Floor laying
a) Floating way – when laying the floor using floating way, it is always necessary
to lay steam-proof protection from PE sheet 0.2 mm thick and impact sound
insulation. In such case, it is necessary to consider the total resistance of light
transmittance as a product of resistances of individual layers.
b) Bonding of the parquets to the sub-floor – while laying floor the glue specified
by the manufacturer to be suitable for floor heating must be used.
