NOTE: To protect the finished surface of the cabinet, perform
assembly tasks on a flat, padded work surface.

Place the cabinet upright on a flat, padded surface.
Remove the drawer to access the holes for leg attachment. Refer

to the ″Remove/Reinstall the Drawer″ section of this guide.

Determine whether the legs will be installed on the left or right.
The opposite side will be supported when installed to the K-2604

Lay the cabinet on its side and position each leg so the clips face
toward each other (as shown).

Secure each leg post using two #8 x 2″ panhead screws, lock
washers, and flat washers.

Position the cross rail above the clips between the front and back
legs (as shown).

Evenly press down on the cross rail until the clips are fully

2. Install Spacers (Double Vanity Installation)

NOTE: Attach spacers only for installation of the bridge between
two vanities.

IMPORTANT! Ensure the spacers do not extend past the top edge
of the bridge. Improper placement of spacers may interfere with the
installation of the stone top.

Remove the protective film from the adhesive strips on one of the
spacers.

Carefully position the spacer on the side of the bridge, flush with
the top and front edges.

Take a second spacer and position it on the side of the bridge,
flush with the top and back edges.

Flip the bridge over and repeat above for the other two spacers.

Care and Cleaning

For best results, keep the following in mind when caring for your
KOHLER product:

Marble

NOTE: Application of a stone sealer will help make natural stone
surfaces less porous and more resistant to stains (stone sealer will
not make the surface stain proof).

•

Marble is a natural stone, thus its color and pattern can vary
greatly. Each marble surface has its own distinct characteristics.
This individuality makes each marble fixture a unique and
original addition to your home.

•

If a marble surface is given the proper care, it will retain its
beauty and durability. Without regular cleaning, dust particles can
settle on marble and can be ground into the surface and cause
damage. Wash marble regularly with fresh warm water and a
clean non-abrasive cloth. Add a neutral (ph balanced) cleaner to
help remove dirt and grime.

•

Avoid detergents that can be abrasive and contain chemicals high
in acid or alkaline. Petroleum (or oils such as animal fat) can
darken natural stone and leave a residue which, over time, can
build up and turn yellow. This buildup is difficult to remove.

•

Give marble the same attention you give to fine wood. Use
coasters under all drink containers. Wipe up stains immediately.
Do not allow heated items to come into contact with the marble
surface. To protect against scratches, use felt, leather, or cork
under all items placed on the marble surface.

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.

Care and Cleaning (cont.)

•

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.
