Abstract:
1. A method of assembling resilient floorboards, which are provided with a mechanical locking system for vertical and horizontal locking of two adjacent floorboards, wherein the method comprises the steps of: positioning a first floorboard edge of a first floorboard, provided with a first device of said mechanical locking system, juxtaposed a second edge of a second floorboard, provided with a second device of said mechanical locking system, so that the first device of the mechanical locking system overlies the second device, the first floorboard edge having an outermost surface closest to the second edge of the second floorboard; bending the first floorboard along at least the outermost surface of the first floorboard edge above the top surface of the second floorboard while the first device of the mechanical locking system overlies the second device; and applying a force on a first part of the first floorboard edge, wherein at said first part of the first floorboard edge said first device is pushed into said second device to obtain a vertical and horizontal mechanical locking of a part of the first and second edges.
