4.
See Fig. #9. From back edge of countertop, locate the
dimension from finished wall to center of faucet holes (Dim. "Y")
and draw the centerline. Add 1-1/2" (3.8cm) to the faucet hole
centerline to locate the back edge of the cut-out. Trace the cut-out
opening on the countertop using a soft lead pencil. Locate the
faucet holes.

Cut out the opening in the countertop, carefully following the
pencil line. Use an orbital sander or sanding block to smooth the
edge of the cut-out area and remove all saw marks. For
laminate-type countertops, all exposed unlaminated surfaces
near the cut-out opening must be adequately finished and sealed
to prevent damage from water absorption.

To avoid damage, do not cut, drill, or sand
countertop while positioned over fixture.
6.
Drill required faucet hole locations (number of holes drilled will be
determined by the fitting being used) and install faucet to
countertop according to manufacturer's instructions. (Sink has
three faucet holes.)
7.
Clean the top of the sink rim, making sure surface is free from
debris. Clean the bottom of the countertop around the cut-out
area, making sure surface is smooth and free of defects.
8.
Apply a generous bead of sealant around the sink rim (where sink
rim and countertop meet).
9.
Position the countertop over the sink, being careful the sealant
provides a complete seal between sink rim and bottom of
countertop. Immediately wipe away any excess sealant with a
damp cloth. Fill any voids between rim and countertop with
sealant.
10.
Sealing gap between apron and cabinet is optional.

CUT-OUT POSITIONING
2.
See Fig. #11. Due to the various cut-out sizes possible, no
template is supplied. If using the K-5984 cutting board, the
minimum cut-out length is 31" (78.7cm).
3.
Carefully measure the countertop to determine the exact location
of the cut-out.
4.
See Fig. #8. Measure the distance from finished wall to the center
of sink faucet holes (Dim. "Y"). This dimension will be used to
locate the faucet hole centerline and back edge of the cut-out on
the countertop. Make sure the sink is positioned to provide
adequate clearance between faucet and backsplash, finished
wall, or support frame. This will ensure full faucet operation when
installed.
5.
See Fig. #11. From back edge of countertop, locate the
dimension from finished wall to center of faucet holes (Dim. "Y")
and draw the centerline. Subtract 1-1/2" (3.8cm) from the faucet
hole centerline to locate the back edge of the cut-out. Trace the
cut-out opening on the countertop using a soft lead pencil. Locate
the faucet holes.
6.
Cut out the opening in the countertop, carefully following the
pencil line. Use an orbital sander or sanding block to smooth the
edge of the cut-out area and remove all saw marks. For
laminate-type countertops, all exposed unlaminated surfaces
near the cut-out opening must be adequately finished and sealed
to prevent damage from water absorption.
