STEP 2 continued: Make sure cabinetry box is 3cm (minimum) below countertop surface
and mounting brackets are positioned correctly so drip pan and chassis are aligned to
countertop(see diagrams above). Ablack o-ring is recessed in the top bead and designed to
create a seal against the countertop.
Also ensure allowance for the countertop overhang as shown on the SIDE VIEW (see next
page).
When you have confirmed the position is correct, cut the countertop and substrate.
CORRECTALIGNMENT OF DRIP PAN
