PREPARE THE COUNTER TOP

Check clearances above and below the counter. Make sure there are no obstructions such as cupboard partitions, braces or pipes to interfere
with the installation. Thickness of the counter top must not be more than 1 1/2" (38mm) thick at sink rim.

IF A TEMPLATE WAS SUPPLIED:

Position the template flat on the countertop to align with plumbing connections - do not draw around the tabs, as they are for positioning
only and do not need to be cut out. (Illustration A) Mark opening and faucet holes on countertop. If you are installing a ledgeback sink
(one with a spot for the faucet) trace the faucet holes onto the countertop.

Drill a hole to start cutout, then use a jigsaw to cut carefully along the inside edge of the cutout line, and use a hole saw to cut out the
necessary faucet holes. (Illustration 1B and 1C).

IF NO TEMPLATE WAS SUPPLIED:

Note: This step does not apply to ledgeback sinks.

Clean the counter thoroughly to avoid scratching the polished sink rim. Place the sink face down on countertop and draw a line "A", with
pencil, around the sink, ensuring that you have left enough room for a faucet behind the sink. Remove the sink and draw a second line "B"
3/8" inside the first. Extra allowance may be required at corners.

Drill a hole to start cut out then use a jigsaw to cut carefully along the inside edge of the cut-out line, and a hole saw to cut out the necessary
faucet holes. (Illustration 1B & 1C).

IF THE COUNTERTOP HAS BEEN PRECUT:

Please refer to instruction sheet 31223 included in the carton.

Step 1

PREPARE THE SINK

Remove the protective plastic cover from the sink and the paper tape on the rim seal. Place the supplied foam faucet gasket over the cutout
faucet holes. When installed properly, this gasket will give the faucet deck more stability. A bit of tape will hold the gasket in place while you
install the sink.

Step2

Step3

PREPARE THE STRAINER ASSEMBLY

Install strainer assembly as indicated. (Illustration 3A or 3B). Hand tighten the
tailpiece on the strainer housing.

Step5

Step4

INSTALL SINK FASTENERS

Before dropping the sink into the prepared hole, and with sink right-side-up,
place notched end of bolt into the keyhole slot in sink bracket. Use one bolt per
double bracket. Turn claw to rest against side of sink. (Illustration 4A).

NOTE: Some models have "bubble clips" welded to the under side of the ledge.
In these instances the head of the clamp (T-bolt with claw and wing-nut) is
inserted into the clip after sink has been set into the countertop.
(Illustration 4B).

1A 1B 1C

INSTALL THE SINK

Lower the sink carefully into the countertop so the bolts enter without interference.(Illustration 5A).
Turn the claws out 90° so they grasp the underside of the countertop. (Illustration 5B).
Tighten the clamps gradually, in a sequence similar to that shown. (Illustration 5C).
CAUTION: Tighten claws only until sink rim is flush with counter top.

Do not over tighten.
