Place the base with the ribbed rubber facing down (making contact with the desktop
or the floor)
Now, take the mat and place it on top of the base.
Orient the mat so that you can read the "Slipp-Nott.com" logo (or
orange Trac Mate logo for those with a Trac Mate mat). Depending on the mat
the tabs
may be on the left or the right side.Make a mental
note of the position on the base by remembering how far the location of bottom
edge and one of the sides are from the edge of the base. This is where you
will try to mount the mat.
With the mat in your hands take a close look at just the tabs.
• The bottom of the mat has a little red tab.
• The bottom sheet has no tab and is textured for easier removal.
Flip the mat upside down so that the bottom sheet is facing
up. You should be able to see a red tab.
If the mat is upside down, the textured sheet is now on top.
Now carefully start to peel the textured sheet MAKING
SURE NOT TO REMOVE THE SHEET WITH THE RED TAB.If you see the
red tab coming off STOP, press it back down and start over removing only
the textured sheet.
Continue peeling off the textured sheet.
Remove
and discard this sheet. If you have a plastic recycling program, you can recycle
it. The sheet is made of polyethylene.
You are now ready to mount the mat to the base. Recall the
location of the mat from the second step and carefully adhere the left edge
while holding the rest of the mat up in the air with your other hand. Take
care to align the edge of the mat parallel to the edge of the base. Reposition
if necessary.
Starting from the edge you just adhered, carefully lower the mat as you press mat with
up and down strokes toward the opposite edge. Mounting it from one edge to the
other helps to reduce air bubbles.
This step should be obvious - continue.
All
finished. Now simply remove the top protective sheet when you are ready to
use it. Always remember to store your extra mats flat and out of direct sulight.
LM60/SM60 mats have alternately colored blue and white tabs. The TM1518/TMat
have green tabs.
