MLTCDKIT MLT Leveling System Starter Kit

MLT Floor Leveling System Starter Kit

Features

• Protective rubber feet can be applied on the cap to prevent scratches and markings during the tiling of polished marble and stone
• The reusable cap can be disengaged after tensioning with slight side pressure to clean grout joints and seams or to reposition the tiles/slabs.
• Guarantees perfect alignment and plane during the curing of the setting material
• Different base plates for porcelain, thin tile, and stone with offset joints can be used.
• Reusable straps can be used multiple times, lowering overall expense
• No need to pre-soak base plates
• Rubber feet and steel tongue inserts for caps prevent scratching and extend cap life
• Counter sinkholes in base plates aid in fastening ceiling applications
• Base plate design allows for maximum thin-set coverage without hollow spots
• The slot on the top of the cap will accept a stainless steel tongue insert in cases where the ratcheting teeth may become worn. This will significantly prolong the working life of each cap
• Optional Stainless Steel Tongue Inserts sold separately
• Optional Rubber Feet for Caps sold separately

MLT System Installation

• Pre-assemble reusable connecting tab and base plate
• Push the stainless steel portion of the re-usable connecting tab through the center opening of the selected base plate
• Align protuberances by passing them entirely through the slotted openings of the stainless steel connecting tab.
• Pull the connecting tab until the "snap lock" engages
• The base plate should remain affixed to the re-usable connecting tab unless separation is desired
• Insert pre-assembled, re-usable connecting tab and base plate under the tile or stone edge, sliding the connecting tab's base plate under the tile or stone being installed, at approximately 3” from the corners (MLT System components may be used for the corners of an offset pattern, in the “T” intersection of porcelains having a minimum thickness of 3/8”)
• The stainless steel strap insert will allow for a minimum of 0.5 mm (1/64") grout joint
• The spacing of each re-usable connecting tab should not exceed 20” to 24” apart during installation
• Do not place them under a four-corner junction, as lippage may result and significantly increase the difficulty to produce a straight grout joint line
• Once the pre-assembled, re-usable connecting tab and base plate are in place, proceed using standard installation procedures
• Upon completing the "set" of the tile or stone, lower the tension locking cap over the re-usable connecting tab to the tile or stone surface, then slide the cap in the direction of the grout joint to engage the lock
• Place the installation/removal tool atop the tension locking cap to engage the re-usable connecting tab and tension MLT System, to create a lippage-free surface
• If additional cleaning of the grout joint line is required after the MLT System has been tensioned, remove the cap, clean the joint line, re-engage the cap, and re-tension
• To remove the set tension setting, dial “S” for “Snap.” Place the installation/removal tool atop the re-usable cap and engage the re-usable connecting tab
• Collect and store all re-usable connecting tabs and re-usable tension locking caps for future use
•  When using MLT System for installations of thin tile, un-glazed, or highly polished materials, it is strongly recommended to use the fitted Rubber Pad accessory under the re-usable tension locking cap
