For All Installations
If the countertop has not been installed, install it at this time.
Drill the faucet holes according to the faucet installation
instructions.
Install the faucet to the countertop according to the faucet
manufacturer's instructions.
Install the strainer to the sink according to the strainer
manufacturer's instructions.
Turn the clamps parallel to the opening to allow for easy
installation of the sink.
Clean the top of the sink rim with a non-abrasive cleaner.
Clean the underside of the countertop around the cut-out area,
making sure the surface is smooth, clean, and free of defects.
Apply a generous bead of sealant to the top surface of the sink
rim.
CAUTION: Risk of personal injury or product damage. Cast
iron sinks are very heavy. Get help lifting the sink into place.
Position and align the sink with the countertop cut-out.
Rotate the clamps over the sink rim, and carefully tighten them
until they are just snug.
Check the alignment of the sink with the cut-out. Then securely
tighten the clamps.
Optional: Apply a bead of sealant between the countertop and
the top of the sink rim.
Immediately wipe away any excess sealant, and fill any voids as
needed.
Allow the sealant to cure for at least 30 minutes before
proceeding.
Connect and tighten the trap to the strainer, and complete the
water supply connections to the faucet according to the
instructions packed with the faucet.
Run water into the sink and check for leaks.
