1. Position template on countertop. Locate the

template front to rear, so that sink will not inter-

fere with the cabinet.

inside of this line to provide opening. This size

opening will provide approximately an 1/8" over-

hang of countertop. (Please see item #2 under

Attention Installer.)

the countertop manufacturer’s instructions) as

shown below. Holes should allow even spacing

of mounting brackets around the sink. Type of

fasteners to be as recommended by countertop

supplier.

4. Fasten mounting brackets to countertop loosely.

5. Using a good quality silicone caulk, apply a bead

evenly all around the top of the sink flanges.

6. Position and align sink over the countertop

opening. Press silicone onto countertop.

7. Tighten fasteners until mounting brackets are

snug against sink.

8. Check alignment of sink to countertop opening.

USE AND CARE GUIDE STAINLESS STEEL SINK Easy Cleaning Instructions Rinsing is the most important part of sink care. A stainless steel sink finish will retain its original bright appearance if the sink is rinsed thoroughly after each use. Running the water from the spray hose for a few minutes can do “Thorough” rinsing. Typically, a rinse and towel drying after each use takes care of most everyday clean ups. Ideally, once a week the sink should be scoured with a mildly abrasive cleaner, such as Comet.
