1. Once you decide on the location for your TurfTiles™ putting green and open the boxes, estimated assembly time is perhaps 30 seconds per tile. A TurfKit-12™ could be easily laid in less than a half-hour.
2. Each TurfTile is square, 50 cm x 50 cm (about 19 5/8? x 19 5/8?). A TurfKit-8 is typically set up 1 tile wide by 7 long joined together, 0.5m x 3.5m (1.6?x11.5?), with the eighth tile set along side at the distance from the hole desired. The TurfKit-12 is commonly set 2 tiles by 6 tiles, 1.0m x 3.0m (3.3?x9.8?) but could be arranged 3 tiles by 4 tiles or 1 tile by 12 tiles. And you could purchase additional chipping or putting tiles to expand your green at will.
3. Observe the appearance of the turf surface. Like a mown green there is a slight direction to the grass which is more seen than felt. For the most uniform appearance orient all TurfTiles™ in the same direction.
4. The dogbone shaped connectors are inserted into round holes on the bottom side on the two leading edges of the first tile, which is typically laid in the upper-left corner of the planned green.
5. The next tile with connectors on the two leading edges is snapped down over the exposed connectors on the right side of the first tile. At this point you will have two tiles linked together, each having connectors exposed on the lower edge and the second tile having connectors exposed also on the right edge.
6. Continue adding tiles left-to right, leaving the right-most tile with no connectors on the exposed right edge unless you plan to add the tapered ramps for that ?finished? appearance.
7. Start a second row below the first and continue until the area is complete.
8. Snap the long chipping turf tiles on last to ensure that the long grass is not caught between the tiles.
9. For irregular areas the outer edges of the tiles could be trimmed with a saw. A medium fine blade in a band saw works well, as does a hand hacksaw. Rotary cutters are OK if the speed and feed are controlled to get a clean cut.
