Installation Guide

STEP 2:
OPTION A: Prepare existing countertop
Make sure existing countertop cut-out opening is the proper size. Set the new sink
into opening. Caution: do not push the sink tight to the countertop at this time. The
sink rim should rest evenly on the countertop. Slight adjustments can be made using
a file or a jigsaw.
Use caution to avoid chipping or cracking the countertop while filing or sawing.
After final fitting, remove the new sink from cut-out.

Carefully place the sink upside down on the
countertop at the desired position. Trace the
outline of the sink onto the countertop. Do not
cut along this line.
Draw a line 5/8” (16mm) inside the sink outline.
Measure the cut-out line you just drew and
compare to all sink dimensions. The cut-out
should be approximately 1¼” (32mm) smaller
than the overall sink dimensions.
Verify both measurements.
Drill a pilot hole inside the cutting line.
Using a jigsaw, cut along the inside line
to create the opening in the countertop.

A template is provided to use in cutting the sink
hole. Template can be located either:
a. On the outside of the sink carton. Use scissors
to cut along dotted line. Measure the cut-out line
and compare to all sink dimensions.
b. Inside carton. Measure the cut-out line and
compare to all sink dimensions. The cut-out
line should be 1¼” (32mm) smaller than the
overall sink dimensions.
Place template on countertop. Trace completely
around the edge of the template directly onto
your countertop.
Drill a pilot hole inside the cutting line.
Using a jigsaw, cut along the line to create the opening in the countertop.

With sink in the upside-down position, place a
continuous and generous bead of silicone sealant
or plumber’s putty around the entire perimeter of
the rim. This serves as a watertight seal.
Lift sink, turn face-up and lower into the
countertop opening evenly. Do not tip sink to the
front or back when lowering into opening.
Line up front rim with the front edge of the counter.

Attach faucet and drains to the sink. Use plumber’s putty or silicone sealant under
the faucet base and under the top flange of the drain to provide a leak-proof seal.
