Installation

1. Select Schluter-DILEX-EZ 6 or -EZ 9 according to tile thickness. For tile thicknesses greater than 11/32" (9 mm), Schluter-DILEX-EZ 9 must be back-buttered with thin-set mortar.
2. Set tiles up to the point where Schluter-DILEX-EZ is to be installed.  Apply thin-set mortar to tile edges.  The profile must align directly with movement joints in the substrate below. Press the profile against the tile edge and flush with the tile surface so that the ribbed, hourglass-shaped section is completely embedded in the mortar.
3. For the next row of tiles, apply thin-set mortar to the side wall of the Schluter-DILEX-EZ profile already in place; then press the tiles against the profile so that they are flush with the profile surface.
4. Schluter-DILEX-EZ may be installed with or without a small joint to the adjacent tile.
