Swanstone US-1210 Installation

4. Set the kitchen sink into position being careful that the overhang is uniform and aligned to the cut-out.
5. Cut 3” wide strips of 3/4” thick plywood and trial fit around the perimeter of the Swanstone kitchen sink (except where faucet holes will be located). It is suggested that a 1/4” space exist between the plywood strips and the sink flange.
6. Join the plywood strips to the countertop surface with contact cement.
7. Remove the Swanstone sink and clean both the countertop and sink flange with denatured alcohol.
8. Apply a continuous bead of 100 percent silicone around the sink flange and set the sink into place.
9. Using the sink clamps and screws provided by Swan (1P3115-10), secure the Swanstone kitchen sink into place. A sink clip should be positioned everywhere there is a counterbore located on the sink flange.
10. Lightly tighten screws so sink position can be verified.
11. Tighten screws securely. If desired, additional temporary clamps (not provided) can be used to pull the sink flange tightly to counter.
12. Use mineral spirits and a soft cloth to remove excess silicone that has been squeezed out by the mounting procedure. Be sure that there is a consistent seal along the interior perimeter of the sink.
