Step 6 (Assemble and Insert Sink Fasteners)
Step 7 (Engage and Tighten Fasteners)
Step 8 (Connect Faucet Supplies and Drain Fittings)
Apply a small bead of silicone caulk compound completely around all edges of
sink opening, Stay approximately 1/4" from cut-out, Use only a 1/8" to 1/4"
bead of silicone.
Note: Using too much sealant may keep the sink from properly sealing to the
countertop.
Assemble the screws into the U channel fasteners as shown (1). The screws are
designed to insert into the channel fasteners with backward threading, so during
mounting they will turn in a counterclockwise direction. Position the fasteners as
shown (2). Slide the U channel fasteners into the channel bar from either open
end and/or slots in the channel. Hand tighten each fastener onto the channel so
that the clamp teeth point toward the U channel.
Insert the sink into the countertop. (If
the cut-out is undersized, please go back
to step 3 and do not force the sink.)
Position the fasteners claw end under top
edge (See diagram (1) for example).
Locate the fastener in the position as
shown in diagram (2).
CAUTION: Improper tightening of channel
fasteners could result in improper
installation or cause damage to sink.
Tightening Sequence is as follows:
A. With U channel fasteners equally
spaced, and with one at each end of
channel bar, hand tighten channel
fasteners, starting at center and
working toward sides.
B. Re-check sink position on counter top.
C. Tighten all channel fasteners an
additional quarter turn with a flat head
screwdriver, Important - DO NOT
OVERTIGHTEN.
Use Teflon tape at all threaded water connections to avoid leaks. Connect the
drain trap fittings. Connect the water supply valves to the faucet. Turn on the
water supply valves and check for leaks at all threaded water connections.
Fill the sink bowl with water and check around the drain flange(s) for moisture
and for water dripping onto the bottom of the cabinet.
Release water from sink and tighten any leaky connections found.
