Notes
During installation, take care to protect the sink from scus and scratches.
Do not stand on the sink.
During installation, do not stand the sink on its edges or corners. This may cause damage.
Avoid straining and over tightening of all plumbing xtures connected to the sink.
Carefully check that the moulding and edges of the sink are dead level so that water will ow o the drainer.
The clamping brackets are suitable for worktops of between 30–40 mm thickness (Fig. 1.1). If your worktop is a dierent size then it may require packing under the clamps or rebating (Fig. 1.2).
Preparing the Worktop
Marking Out the Opening
We recommend that you t the sink to the worktop before permanently xing the worktop to the cabinet.
1. Place the sink upside down on the worktop. Position the sink on the worktop as required. Make sure the cabinet framework will clear all parts of the sink. Using a soft, sharp pencil draw around the sink as accurately as possible (Fig. 1.3). Remove the sink.
2. Draw another line 10 mm inside the sink top outline – this is the cutting line for the opening (Fig. 1.4).
3. Drill as large a hole as possible inside the cutting line. Using a pad saw, jigsaw or similar, cut out the opening up to the cutting line.
Sealing the Edges of the Opening.
We recommend that porous edges around the cut-out are sealed using a waterproof sealant such as varnish, paint or wood glue . This will prevent swelling of the worktop should any small leaks occur (Fig. 1.5).
