Installation
UNDERMOUNT INSTALLATION
PREPARING THE AREA CUTTING THE COUNTER
NOTE:
Undermount sinks are mounted from below the counter. If you are installing a topmount or “drop-in” sink, please see “topmount installation” on page 9.
It is highly recommended that undermounting be performed by a professional installer. Improper installation will void the warranty. Sink template (1A) shows cut-lines for both undermount and topmount installations. Review it carefully and follow the undermount cut-lines only to install the sink under your counter.
- Place the template (1A) on the desired counter space surface. Keep in mind that the typical setback is 3 1/2 - 4 in. (89 mm - 102 mm) from the front of the counter to the sink bowl (depending on the cabinet structure, the counter overhang, the type of sink bowl, and
the deck size).
- Make sure the template (1A) is parallel to the front of the counter.
CAUTION: Always wear safety goggles and gloves when using power tools to prevent personal injury.
- Ensure that the template (1A) is placed so that the sink will clear all objects and the mounting hardware can be installed. Secure the template to the counter top using masking tape.
- Place a support underneath the cut-out portion of the counter to prevent it from falling during cutting. Use an appropriate saw to cut along the undermount cutline.
- Drill a 1-3/8 in. (35mm) mounting hole for your faucet.

TESTING THE FIT OF THE SINK
- Place the sink (A) underneath the cut-out in the counter to
test its t. Ensure that the reveal is equal on all four sides
when viewed from above. Make adjustments to the cut-out if necessary.
- When you are satised with the location of the sink (A), mark the location of the edge of the counter cut-out on top of the
sink and all around the sink ange underneath the counter.
- Set the sink aside and proceed with the rest of the installation.
DRILLING THE HOLES FOR THE UNDERMOUNT CLIPS
CAUTION: Always wear safety goggles and gloves when using power tools to prevent personal injury.
- On the underside of the counter, mark the location of the ten holes for the undermount clips (F). These holes should be
equally spaced around the sink ange outline as shown below.
They should be set back from the sink ange outline by 5/8 in
(15.8mm).
- Using an electric drill with a 3/8 in. (10 mm) drill bit, drill each hole so that it is 3/8 in. (10 mm) in diameter and 5/8 in. (15.8 mm) deep. Use a drill bit depth stop to ensure you do not drill through the counter top.

INSTALLING THE SINK
NOTE:
Install the vanishing edgeTM strainer according to the instructions before completing this step. See page 11.
- Press t the threaded anchor inserts (F) into the holes drilled into the underside of the countertop. Use a bolt to make this process easier if required.
- Loosely thread the undermount bolts and clips into the threaded anchor inserts and align them parallel to the sink ange outline so they do not interfere with the placement of the sink.
- Place a small bead of silicone sealant (not included) around the outer top perimeter of the sink ange as shown below.
- Carefully place the sink (A) into its location under the counter, lining up the pencil marks on the top of the sink that you made
when you tested the t of the sink.
- Carefully rotate the clamps of the undermount clips (F) over the clamp bar on the sink (A) and gently tighten the bolts (see
tightening sequence) of the undermount clips (F), working from side to side to fasten the sink (A) rmly. Recheck the alignment
visually from above.
- Wipe away any excess silicone and, for best results, allow the bond to rest undisturbed for 8 hours or overnight.
- Install the counter, faucet, and all other plumbing as per manufacturers instructions.
