1WALL PREPARATION:
INSTALLATION PROCEDURES
Determine if the sink will be ush mounted or under countertop mounted. Next measure the actual size of the sink being
installed to determine cabinet opening dimensions and support frame location. The cabinet opening should equal
dimensions of the sink to minimize the gap between the sink apron and cabinet.
The type of sink installation being performed will determine the support frame location.
FLUSH MOUNT or UNDER COUNTERTOP INSTALLATIONS
Typical installation includes cabinet support preparation, installation of faucet and waste tting, connection of exible water supply
lines, attachment of sink to cabinet, sizing and installation of drain and water supplies.
Sink Mounting Provisions
The cabinet area beneath the sink must be reinforced to provide sufficient support. The wood support frame for the sink must
support 400 pounds (approximate weight of sink when full and garbage disposal installed).
CABINET SUPPORT PREPERATION
Important Note:
This installation assumes the use of a custom cabinet and countertop design. It is not designed for use with standard cabinet
bases or standard countertops.

4B UNDER COUNTERTOP INSTALLATION
For under countertop installation, cutout
opening is typically smaller than cabinet
opening. The cutout size shall be
determined by the preference of the
customer. Carefully cut out the countertop
opening. Opening must be adequately
nished and sealed to prevent damage from
water leaking.

SINK INSTALLATION
FLUSH MOUNT INSTALLATION
Using carpenters square carefully measure and mark the
location of the cutout opening in the countertop.
Note: Determine cutout opening from the actual sink size.
The cutout opening should equal the dimensions of
the sink to minimize gap between the sink and the
countertop opening.
CAUTION: Sinks are extremely heavy.
For personal safety, always use
extra personnel for installation.
STEP 1. Carefully set the sink within the support frame
and position in center of cabinet opening. Check
clearance around sink apron and ensure sink is
centered within cabinet opening. Ensure sink base
is making proper contact with support frame and
countertop. Adjust or shim, as needed, to obtain
proper sink position and t.
STEP 2. Carefully remove sink and place a bead of sealant
around top edge of support frame where the sink
and frame will make contact. Then replace sink
into position. See diagram below.
