SINK INSTALLATION
CAUTION: Sinks are extremely heavy.
For personal safety, always use
extra personnel for installation.
STEP 1. Carefully set the sink within the support frame
and position in center of cabinet opening. Check
clearance around sink apron and ensure sink is
centered within cabinet opening. Ensure sink base
is making proper contact with support frame and
countertop. Adjust or shim, as needed, to obtain
proper sink position and fit.
STEP 2. Carefully remove sink and place a bead of sealant
around top edge of support frame where the sink
and frame will make contact. Then replace sink
into position. See diagram below.
4A
FLUSH MOUNT INSTALLATION
Using carpenters square carefully measure and mark the
location of the cutout opening in the countertop.
Note: Determine cutout opening from the actual sink size.
The cutout opening should equal the dimensions of
the sink to minimize gap between the sink and the
countertop opening.
4B
UNDER COUNTERTOP INSTALLATION
For under countertop installation, cutout
opening is typically smaller than cabinet
opening. The cutout size shall be
determined by the preference of the
customer. Carefully cut out the countertop
opening. Opening must be adequately
finished and sealed to prevent damage from
water leaking.
