Laying floorboards on plywood with the QuikBrace™

If you are laying floorboards over plywood, the QuikBrace™ will help you complete the job, fast and easy, everytime.

When you use the QuikBrace™, you won’t have to worry about common hassles such as:

  • Removing floorboards that can't be laid tightly
  • Trying to match your secret nailer to the correct length nails
  • Wasting time trying to decide what the best glue fix is to covering up imperfections in the work

Because the QuikBrace™ proprietary technology uses compressed air as a controlled power source, it is fast, strong and clean. It really is the no-nonsense way to lay floorboards over plywood.

Simply place the QuikBrace™ on top of the floorboards that are to be installed - with the board grabbers of the U Shaped Head over the edge of the board to be clamped.

Locate the QuikBrace™ board grabbers above the tongue. Now using the QuikBrace™ handle, slightly tilt the machine towards the sub-floor to assist the spikes to infuse into the sub floor - while tilting operate the control valve lever to apply a small amount of pressure.

Once the QuikBrace™ spikes have penetrated the floor, the necessary pressure can be provided and adjusted by turning the control valve. At this stage, the only thing left is to clamp up, fix off and move along the row.

You will notice the QuikBrace™ spike block lifting / tilting as the clamping pressure comes to a head. It can be held in position by putting your foot on top of the spike block. This also allows the QuikBrace™ spikes to penetrate deeper into the subfloor.

You should note that, when standing on the two arms of the QuikBrace™ U shaped head, if you gently tap the spike block, you can speed the flooring process up. If you pull the nail around the QuikBrace™, you can release the pressure and move on to where the QuikBrace™ is needed next. with the quil brace attached to the nailer, the QuikBrace™ is right on hand when it is needed.

Each time you use your QuikBrace™, you should pull back with care on the air ram lever before you attempt to push the lever forward. This enables the QuikBrace™ to discharge the air build up and the gentle push forwards. By following these use suggestions, you can go a long way to avoiding and minimizing the risk of the ram suddenly shoot out, which, if it occurs, can potentially cause unexpected harm and damage to property and people.
