Starting from the bottom step of the staircase, carefully align the first prepared stair tread onto the wooden step. Ensure the tread is centered, positioned straight, and covers the desired area of the step. Once satisfied with the placement, firmly press the tread down across its entire surface, paying close attention to the edges and corners, to securely bond the adhesive to the wood. The installer in the video kneels and crawls up the stairs, applying significant body weight to ensure good contact. Repeat this alignment and pressing process for all remaining stairs, working your way up the staircase one tread at a time.
