CARE AND MAINTENANCE:
• Clean regularly with normal detergent and warm
water.
• Always make a habit of drying your sink after use
and buffing with a soft cloth. This will ensure that
no build up of limescale or other mineral
deposits can occur.
• Clean the sink once a week using a nonabrasive
cleanser such as Comet and a clean soft sponge.
Scrub in the same direction as the natural grain
of the sink.
• Never let soap or other household cleaners to dry
on the surface of the sink. Most products contain
additives which will affect the finish of the sink.
• Never use bleach solutions on the sink, as it is

harmful to stainless steel. If left on the sink
too long it can cause surface pitting.
• Never use a steel wool pad to clean your
sink. Doing so may damage the sink’s
surface and cause discoloration.
• Minor scratching of the sink’s surface is
extremely difficult to avoid and is not
something to be unduly concerned about.
These marks are usually only superficial and
can be removed with a proprietary stainless
steel cleaner.
• Use of rinse grids will reduce exposure of
the bottom of the sink to scratches.

Templates are only provided as a guide. Place template on sink to ensure the

Follow all local plumbing and building codes.
INSTALLATION
1. Place the sink cut-out template on the
countertop, where the sink is to be installed.
Trace around the outside perimeter with a
pencil.
2. After tracing, remove the template. Use a
straight edge if necessary to straighten out
the traced outline. Use a drill with a 7/8”
spade bit to drill four pilot holes, one in
each corner inside the outline. These holes
will be your starting points for sawing the

hole, so they must be large enough to fit the
blade of a jig saw or keyhole saw.
3. Cut the hole for the sink, using a jig saw to
cut along the outline between each hole.
4. Insert Mounting Clips into the U-channel by
inserting them into the widened openings of
the U-channel and then sliding them into
position. Place 2 clips on each of the shorter
sides, and 2 or 3 clips on each of the longer
sides.
5. Attach the Basket Strainer Drain Assembly
(included) to your sink by following the
Installation Instructions included with the
drain assembly. The Basket Strainer Drain
Assembly is only for standard drain
installation. If you are installing a Garbage
Disposal unit, you will not be using the
Basket Strainer Drain Assembly for that sink
bowl. Instead, attach the Disposal Flange unit
that came with your Garbage Disposal unit,
by following the disposal manufacturer's
instructions.
6. Apply a “rope” of plumbers putty or caulk
around the perimeter of the underside of the
sink. Flip the sink over and carefully place it
into the countertop opening, with all of the
drains and attachments secured. Press down
firmly to seat the sink against the countertop.
7. Rotate the Mounting Clips into position so
that they are gripping the Countertop. Use a
screwdriver to tighten the screws.
8. Apply a bead of silicone caulking around the
perimeter of the sink where it meets the
counter to seal any gaps. Fill the sink with
water and leave it overnight to add weight
and help it settle in place. Afterwards,
retighten the mounting clips if necessary.).
