flooring material. DO NOT use vacuums
that have a beater bar, electric brooms
with hard plastic bottoms or no padding
and vacuums which have a rubber
bumper, as this may cause discoloration,
scratching and loss of sheen.
Installation areas that will be difficult to
maintain with a buffer or auto-scrubber,
such as elevators cabs or small rooms,
as well as areas that will not receive
routine maintenance with a buffer or
auto-scrubber must have a compatible
floor finish installed, such as the Excelsior
MF-940 or GF-950, in order to ease
maintenance of the floor covering.
For further information regarding daily or
routine maintenance, please consult the
product care & maintenance document
or the associated product technical data
sheet.
7. FLOORING PROTECTION
Protect newly installed flooring with
construction grade paper or protective
boards, such as Masonite or Ram Board,
to prevent flooring damage, especially
by other trades. Do not slide or drag
pallets or heavy equipment across
the new flooring. Limit usage and foot
traffic according to the adhesive's
requirements. When moving appliances
or heavy furniture, protect flooring from
scuffing and tearing using temporary
floor protection.
All furniture casters must be made of a soft
material and must have a contact point
of at least 1" in width to limit indentation
and flooring damage. All rolling chairs
or seating must have a resilient flooring
chair pad installed over the finished
floor to protect floor covering. All fixed
furniture legs must have permanent felt
or soft rubber floor protectors installed
on all contact points and to reduce
indentation. Floor protectors must have
a flat contact point of at least 1 sq. in. or
1 in. diameter and must cover the entire
bottom surface of the furniture leg.
Ensure all furniture castors and chair
legs and are clean and free of any and
all dirt and debris. Routinely clean chair
castors and furniture legs to ensure that
dirt or debris has not built up or become
embedded in castors or floor protectors.
Replace chair castors and floor protectors
at regular intervals, especially if they
become damaged or heavily soiled.
Place walk-off mats at outside entrances.
Ensure mats are manufactured with non-
staining backs to prevent discoloration.
