Sink Installation
Undermount Installation
1. Trace the Opening
Locate the undermount installation template in the box.
Cut carefully along the dotted lines. Keep the inside portion of the template. It
contains important information concerning the care and maintenance for your sink.
Place the template on the counter where you would like your sink to be. When
installing the template, make sure that the tank will not interfere with cabinet doors or
panels. Ensure that there is enough space for the water supply installation.
Fix the template on the counter using masking tape.
Trace the inside of the template meticulously with a pencil.
Remove the template.
2. Cut the Opening
Using a drill, make a small starting hole of about 1.2 cm (0.5 in) insdie of the cutting
line.
Drill a second time in this same hole with a larger bit so the jigsaw can be inserted
properly.
Put masking tape on the outer side of the cutting line. This will protect the counter from
scratches and shattered fragments caused by the jigsaw.
Using the jigsaw, trim the inside of the cutting line.
Make sure to complete the cut with a proper finition.
3. Build a Support Frame
Build a support frame to hold the sink.
Make sure there is enough space for the rails on the support frame.
4. Drain Installation
Insert the metal strainer into the rubber seal, and then into the draining hole.
Install the rubber gasket and the main drain body underneath the sink.
Using the screw, tighten the main drain body and the metal strainer into place.
Install the basket on top of the metal stainer.
Repeat the same procedure for the installation fo the second draining hold (twin and
double bowls only).
Note: Plumber putty is not required for the installation of these drains.
