It is essential to read and follow the steps listed in this "How To" Fixing Instruction manual prior to installing the KlevaKlip System
KlevaKlip only recommends Kiln Dried (KD) hardwood. Badly warped or bowed deck boards are unsuitable when using the KlevaKlip system.
Please ensure all the KlevaKlip's are clean, sound, dry and free of oil or grease. Thoroughly remove all loose particles and dust prior to fixing.
When fixing Australian & Imported Hardwood especially Merbau make sure the deck boards are not wet and there are minimal traces of tanin bleed on the deck board surface where the ToolBox is bonded.
The KlevaKlip saddle clip is designed to suit joists of 45mm-48mm in thickness.
The KlevaKlip Top-fix clip is designed to suit metal joists RHS of 50mm or larger in width.
Whilst the fixing of the boards into the KlevaKlip is fast and will save time over conventional hand fixing, it is important that extreme care is taken in installing your first row of KlevaKlip's. This will govern the straightness of your deck.
