STEP 2: OPTION A: Prepare existing countertop 1. Make sure existing countertop cut-out opening is the proper size. Set the new sink into opening. The sink rim should rest evenly on the countertop. Slight adjustments can be made using a ﬁle or a jigsaw. 2. Use caution to avoid chipping or cracking the countertop while ﬁling or sawing. 3. Countertop should not be warped in order for sink to ﬁt flush in the opening. OPTION B: Prepare a new countertop using the sink as a template OPTION B: 1 1.

Step 4 STEP 4: Install accessories To simplify installation, we recommend the installer attach faucets, strainers and accessories at this time. When ﬁtting the drain to the sink, take extra care not to overtighten. Overtightening can add a mechanical stress in the region of the drain hole which could damage or crack the sink. We recommend the screw ﬁtting be hand tight plus one eighth turn. Caution: Use only Stain-Free Plumber's Putty.

PASO 4 PASO 4: Cómo instalar los accesorios Para simpliﬁcar la instalación, le sugerimos que el instalador conecte los grifos, ﬁltros y accesorios en este momento. Cuando conecte el drenaje al fregadero, tenga especial cuidado de no ajustarlo excesivamente. El ajuste excesivo puede agregar tensión mecánica al área en donde se encuentra el oriﬁcio de drenaje, lo cual podría dañar o agrietar el fregadero. Le sugerimos que el ajuste del tornillo se realice a mano. Luego, realice un giro de un octavo.
