Prior to processing, the subfloor must be checked according to the standard DIN 18356 or corresponding national standards. The subfloor shall be resistant to pressure and tension, free of cracks, must have sufficient surface strength, be permanently dry, level, clean and free of from contaminants that may prevent adhesion, sinter layers etc. In addition, porosity and grip of surface need to be checked. Also check moisture content and absorption of subfloors as well as temperature, air humidity and subfloor temperature.
It must be ensured that the subfloor is ready for installation by performing proper subfloor preparation, floors must be clean, have sufficient surface strength, must be level, permanently dry and free of cracks. A mechanical pretreatment of the subfloor (sweeping, vacuuming, mechanical brushing, sanding, milling, shot blasting) must be performed depending on type and condition of subfloor. Cracks and joints, except expansion joints and other construction joints, shall be solidly closed with STAUF repair resin and floor brackets. Cavities and indentations can be filled with a non self-levelling STAUF levelling compound. If necessary, make sure subfloors are level, have sufficient absorptive capacity and grip by applying the appropriate STAUF levelling compound.
Apply adhesive to sub floor using the appropriate STAUF notched trowel, avoid adhesive pooling and excessive layer thickness by evenly raking the notched trowel over adhesive layer. Install wood flooring during specified open time, slide in and press down firmly. In particular with raw wood flooring, avoided pushing adhesive into joints. Adhesive in joints can impair subsequent surface treatment. Depending on the degree of setting, adhesive residues can be removed with the appropriate STAUF cleaners. Please test the effect of the cleaner on the finish of the wood flooring in an inconspicuous area or on a sample prior to applying the cleaner. Hardened adhesive residues can easily be removed mechanically, mostly residue-free. However, longer exposures on finished wood flooring should be avoided to prevent possible contouring.
Load bearing capacity depends on room climate and applied quantities of adhesive.

Plasticizers contained in the adhesive can cause flow asphalts to partially dissolve and may affect the wood flooring finish systems, especially for wood flooring installed without tongue and groove technique. The adhesive hardens when reacting with moisture either in the form of air humidity, wood or substrate moisture. The higher the ambient temperature, the faster the adhesive sets. Setting time increases with thickness of the adhesive layer. Adhesives classified as elastic according to DIN EN 14293 and ISO 17178, have elastic properties once hardened. On account of this elasticity, only minimal tension is transferred from parquet to sub floor, but dimensional changes of the parquet elements are allowed for.
