Important: Please follow these instructions carefully.

Lay the doors down onto a smooth surface.

Important: Check that the holes and hinges are in the same place as the diagrams.

Note: We recommend the use of a small piece of waste wood, placed behind the hole while drilling, to reduce the possibility of any breakout.

Using the pilot hole in the rear face of the door , drill through the holes indicated opposite, using a 2.5mm diameter drill.

Turn the door over and open out the 2.5mm holes that you have just drilled by drilling back through them with a 5mm drill.

FLAT against the hinge plate as you slide it across as far as it will go. Tighten screw A.

c: The hinge must be

flat against the hinge plate prior to any adjustment.

d: The hinge must

NOT be AT AN ANGLE to the hinge plate when assembled. This would indicate that the recess at the bottom of screw B had not located in the slot in the hinge plate and the hinge would not be secure. Remove the hinge from the hinge plate and then re-assemble being careful to follow instructions a-c.

Sink Care, Maintenance and Assembly Instructions

Your sink is made of the finest quality stainless steel (CrNi 18/10), DIN1.4301 or AISI 304 (suitable for food contact). Keep you sink looking as good as new by following the care and maintenance instructions.

Instructions

For everyday cleaning of the sink, use household detergents suitable for stainless steel. After each use, rinse the sink with warm water then wipe with a soft dry cloth.

Do not use wire wool. Do not use chemical ‘silver cleaners’, bleaches or detergents containing chlorine or any of its derivitives.

Warning!

If the sink comes into contact with acidic materials, rinse immediately with plenty of water and wipe with a soft, dry cloth. Do not leave rusty objects in contact with the sink. Rust can cause staining, cracking or even permanent damage to the sink surface. To avoid staining of the surface do not leave food or other materials with corrosive properties such as juices, salt, vinegar, mustard etc. on the sink for a long time. Do not place very hot objects directly on the sink. Place them on a special surface (board) made from wood or plastic etc. Avoid scraping the sink basin or draining board with utensils. Avoid dropping heavy or sharp objects onto the sink surface.

Fit the seal tape

Adhere the seal tape around the underside of the edge of the sink, being careful to lay it smoothly (without ridges).

Step 25

Fit the anchor braces

Place the anchor braces vertically and pull them up to lock into their horizontal position.

Also refer to step 27.

. .

. . . . .

.

Step 26

NOTE: Do not attach

the anchor brace which will be positioned at the

front middle of the unit.

Step 27

Assembly is complete

Warning: The

unit is heavy.

Lift with care.

Secure the sink to the top.

These anchor braces are designed for use with counter tops 30-40mm thick (a).

If your counter top is thinner, you may need to insert wooden wedges between the counter top and the braces so as to secure them (b).

After placing two at each corner of the sink, place the rest evenly spaced around the perimeter of the sink.

It is advisable to screw the wooden wedges into the underside of the counter top to avoid any movement when tightening the anchor braces. Please take care that the length of the screw used is 5mm less than the counter top and wooden wedge put together.

Tighten the screws of the anchor braces (with a hand screwdriver), to secure the sink in place.

If you are unsure about plumbing, please consult a qualified plumber.
