PREPARING AN EXISTING COUNTERTOP

proper size. Set the new sink into opening. The sink rim
should rest evenly on the countertop. (Slight adjustments
can be made using a file or a saber saw)
2. Use caution not to chip or crack the counter top when filing or
sawing.
3. After final fitting, remove the new sink from cut-out.
4. For new countertop instructions see the following
instructions.
PREPARING A NEW COUNTERTOP
USING THE SINK AS A TEMPLATE
1. Carefully place the sink upside down on
the countertop at the desired position.
Trace the sink outline on the countertop.
(Do not cut along this line)
2. Draw a line 1/4" (6mm) inside the sink
outline. Measure the cut-out line you just
drew and compare to all sink dimensions.
The cut-out line should be approximately
1/2" (13mm) smaller than the overall
sink dimensions.
3. Double check both measurements.
4. Drill a pilot hole inside the cutting line.
5. Using a jigsaw, cut along the inside line
to cut the opening in the countertop.
