Undermount Stainless Steel Sink
Installation Instructions
1: PREP COUNTERTOP
1. Position the template (provided with your sink) front to rear so the sink
will not interfere with the cabinet; secure with tape.
2. Trace the template and remove. Dry t the sink to verify the
measurements.
4. Following the countertop manufacturer’s instructions, carefully cut the
countertop on the inside of the traced line.
5. Locate and drill the mounting holes, following the countertop
manufacturers instructions. Holes should allow even spacing of
mounting brackets around the sink.
6. With the countertop inverted (upside down), fasten the mounting
brackets to the countertop loosely.
d IMPORTANT: The cabinet must be installed, secured, plumb, and level BEFORE
installing the sink.
d IMPORTANT: Schön undermount sinks should only be fastened to a solid
surface countertop (i.e. granite, Corian® or Silestone®).
1. Clean the bottom of the countertop and the top ange (or lip) of the
sink with denatured alcohol.
2. Apply a narrow bead of silicone adhesive sealant evenly all around the
top of the sink anges.
3. Position and align the sink over the countertop opening. Press silicone
onto countertop.
4. Tighten fasteners until mounting brackets are snug against sink. Check
alignment of sink to the countertop opening.
5. Tighten down fasteners evenly. Be careful not to over-tighten.
6. Immediately remove excess sealant.
d IMPORTANT: The enclosed cutout template will create a countertop opening
with a minimal (1/8” or less) reveal. It is recommended that you discuss this
with your installer and agree that this nished appearance is the desired eect.
Schön is not responsible for improper sink or countertop installations.
d IMPORTANT: Schön is not responsible for sink or countertop if damaged
during installation. Be sure to inspect the sink for damage prior to beginning
installation.
