1. Prepare the Countertop
- For existing installations, carefully lift the old sink out of the
countertop. Compare the existing cut out to the required cut out size. If
needed, enlarge the cutout hole as described below.
- For new installations, carefully place sink upside down on
countertop in the desired position. Be careful not to damage sink
finish. Make sure sink will not interfere with cabinet. Trace the sink
outline onto the countertop. DO NOT CUT ALONG THIS LINE.
- Draw a line 1/4" (6mm) inside the sink outline.
- Before cutting, measure the cut out line you just drew and compare
it to the overall sink dimensions. The cut out should be 1/2" (1.3cm)
smaller than the overall sink dimensions.
- Drill a pilot hole inside the cutting line. Using a saber or keyhole
saw, CUT ALONG THE INSIDE LINE to create the opening in the
countertop.
2. Install the Faucet Fittings
- Install the faucet and drain fittings according to manufacturer's
instructions. If you are reusing fittings from an old sink, use
plumbers putty under the faucet base and top flange of the drain.
