1) Transporting & Handling

1. Corinthian countertops should be stored in original packaging and transported on edge

or vertical position to avoid damage until installation. Carrying them in a horizontal position

will cause stress and possible damage.

2. Be sure to allow 24 hours for the countertops to acclimate to room temperature. Never

install cold or hot solid surface countertops. The day before installation the tops should

be brought into the room they are to be installed in.

1.Usea48"leveltondanynon-levelareas.

2. Level if possible. If not, mark these areas, so later in the installation process you can shim

the countertops to a level position.

Failure to level will cause stress and will possibly damage the countertops.

1. Visually inspect your countertops to ensure each piece is the proper size and is free of

defect. Measure the cabinet run and then the countertop to ensure accuracy.

2. With help, slowly position the countertop above the mounting surface as the

picture illustrates. (FigA)

3. Gradually tip the countertop to a horizontal position. Be aware of upper cabinets and

sinks if applicable.

4.Drytanyseams,ifapplicable,byplacingtheseamedpiecestogether.

Scribing the countertop to match the contour of the wall will be necessary if a gap between

the countertop and wall exceeds the material being applied to the wall.

1. Place the countertop in position. Mark with a pencil directly on the countertop. Any

irregularities in the wall that create a gap or a void.

2. Move the countertop to a sturdy work area, such as a set of saw horses, and use a belt

sander to remove the excess countertop material up to, but not past, your pencil mark.

3. Place the countertop back into position and repeat this process as needed. Repeat this

process for all individual pieces of your countertop.

Position the sink upside down, centered over the sink cutout with equal amounts of overhang or reveal visible on all sides of the sink. (Fig.B) 2. With a pencil or fine-tipped marker, trace the outer rim of the sink to the underside of the countertop. (Fig.C) 3.

8) Assembling Seams (If Applicable) 1. Place the two countertop pieces in position, leaving a 3/4" gap between the two. 2. Make sure you have access through a cabinet to reach the under-side of the seam before completing the caulking part of this step. (NOTE: If you do not have access, it may be necessary to assemble the seam before moving pieces into final position on the cabinets.) 3. Install the supplied biscuits in the precut slots. 4.
