1. Prepare the Site
NOTICE: If the K-2607 bridge cabinet will also be installed, extend
the backing material a minimum of 12″(305 mm) beyond the width
of the vanity on the side where the bridge will be installed.
NOTICE: To properly secure the vanity, the top of the required 2x6
backing material must be 32-1/2″(826 mm) from the finished floor.
Measure and mark 32-1/2″(826 mm) up from the finished floor.
This will be the height from the finished floor to the top of the
2x6 backing material.
Ensure there are no obstructions in the wall (such as wiring or
plumbing) from the marked height down to the floor. If there are
obstructions, select another area to install the vanity.
NOTICE: Extend the backing material beyond the width of the
vanity to the nearest stud to ensure proper support for the vanity.
Front-notch the studs 1-1/2″(38 mm) to ensure the 2x6 backing
material is flush against the studs.
Secure the 2x6 backing material to the studs with framing nails.
Rough-in the water supply and drain lines into the rough-in
plumbing area of the vanity.

obstacles in the wall and 5/16″washers. Calculate proper lag
bolt length by adding the following: 1-1/2″(38 mm) backing
material + wallboard thickness + back rail thickness.
IMPORTANT! Risk of product damage. Use care when moving the
vanity to avoid impacting, sliding, or side-loading the legs.
With assistance, lift and place the vanity in position against the
finished wall. Do not drag the vanity into position.
Verify the vanity is level and the back rail is plumb against the
wall. If necessary, turn the leveler(s) to adjust the unit.
Using a 1/4″drill bit, drill pilot holes through the back rail and

Care and Cleaning (cont.)
•Carefully read the cleaner product label to ensure the cleaner is
safe for use on the material.
•Always test your cleaning solution on an inconspicuous area
before applying to the entire surface.
•Do not allow cleaners to sit or soak on the surface.
•Wipe surfaces clean and rinse completely with water immediately
after cleaner application. Rinse and dry any overspray that lands
on nearby surfaces.
•Use a soft, dampened sponge or cloth. Never use an abrasive
material such as a brush or scouring pad to clean surfaces.
Wood Surfaces
•As with any smooth surface, avoid using abrasive cleaners as
they will scratch the surface. Wipe the wood surface regularly to
prevent buildup of soap and scum.
•To protect against scratches, use felt, leather, or cork under all
items placed on the wood surface. To conceal scratches, a
touch-up marker is available for order. Contact a Kohler
distributor or call 1-800-4-KOHLER for ordering information.
•Do not expose wood furniture to direct sunlight, drying heat
sources, or dampness.
•Dust frequently with a soft cloth in the direction of the grain. Use
only products specifically made for cleaning wood. Avoid using
oily polishes or waxes, or products containing silicone. Blot spills
immediately with a soft, damp cloth.
•Every six months, remove soil buildup by rubbing with a soft
cloth dampened in a 50/50 solution of warm water and an
ammonia-free detergent. Wipe clean with a cloth dampened in
warm water, then wipe dry.
