Installation Instructions

Gather the tools listed at the top of this page

that are required for replacing a sink.

Caution: Do not use Plumbers Putty! Plumbers

Putty can stain your sink.

1 Step One: Remove the Old Sink

Leave the faucet and drain outlet in place for

now.

1. Shut o the water supply valves (usually

under the sink).

2. Relieve pressure by opening faucet.

3. Disconnect the water supply  ttings from

the outlet of the water supply valves.

4. Disconnect the drain  tting from the

waste trap.

5. Remove frame or rim fasteners around

underside of old sink.

6. Lift out sink with faucet and drain  tting

in place.

7. If you are installing a new countertop, go

to NEW COUNTERTOP FOR TOPMOUNT

INSTALLATION and follow the instructions

provided.

2 Step Two: Check Countertop Opening

Make sure the existing countertop cutout

opening is the proper size. Simply set the new

sink into the opening. The sink rim should

rest evenly on the countertop. If not, a slight

adjustment can be made by using a  le or

a greater adjustment by using a jigsaw or

keyhole saw. Care should be taken not to

chip or crack the laminated top by aggressive

 ling or sawing. After  nal  tting, remove the

new sink from cutout.

3 Step Three: Knocking Out Faucet/

Accessory Holes (Must be done before

installing sink)

If your sink already has the proper number of

holes needed, you can proceed to Step Four.

If additional holes need to be knocked out,

place the sink upright on a stable workstation

(a workbench or the  oor). Do NOT place the

sink in the countertop to knock out the holes,

as damage could occur such as cracking or

breakage. Locate the round stickers on the ledge

of the sink. These stickers represent the locations

of the partially drilled holes. With a hammer and

punch or nailset, you can knock out the partially

drilled holes needed for faucet and accessories.

You will then use a  le (ex: rattail type) to

smooth away any rough surface in the holes.

Note: any additional holes beyond the partially

drilled ones noted on this sink are considered

modi cations and any problems associated with

these holes are not covered by the warranty.

4 Step Four: Seal Countertop

Place a thin bead of silicone sealant around

the perimeter of countertop cutout. This will

ensure that the sink is completely sealed to

the countertop.

Caution: Do not use Plumbers Putty! Plumbers

Putty can stain your sink.

5 Step Five: Attach Faucet and

Accessories

To simplify installation, we recommend

the installer attach faucets, strainers and

accessories at this time.

When  tting the drain to the sink, take extra

care not to overtighten. Overtightening can add

a mechanical stress in the region of the drain

hole which could damage or crack the sink. We

recommend the screw  tting be hand tight plus

one eighth turn.

Caution: Do not use Plumbers Putty! Plumbers

Putty can stain your sink.

6 Step Six : Mounting Brackets

Assemble the mounting clips and bolts as

shown in the diagram. Our tests have shown

that the six clips provided are more than

adequate to hold your sink in place until the

sealant applied in Step Four is dry.

7 Step Seven: Hook up plumbing, check

for leaks.

NEW COUNTERTOP FOR TOPMOUNT INSTALLATION

If you are installing a new countertop along

with your new sink, it is easier to cut out and

adjust  tting prior to securing countertop to

the base cabinets. We recommend comparing

the template provided to the sink before

cutting the countertop. (For natural stone or

a solid surface material like granite, marble,

Corian® or Quartz; sink opening should be cut

by a professional.)

Before marking or cutting countertop, use

the sink and template to determine sink

position. A cutting mistake will be costly.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Your new Granite sink is an extremely tough and resilient material that will last

a lifetime of normal usage. To keep its good looks and sparkling  nish follow

these simple guidelines.

Cleaning

• Most stains incurred during normal daily use can be washed away with water

and a mild cleaner such as COMET®, AJAX®, BON AMI®, BAR KEEPERS FRIEND®,

SOFT SCRUB® and a green SCOTCH BRITE™ pad.

• Some very stubborn stains may require a dilute solution of bleach. DO NOT leave

concentrated bleach soaking in your sink. (This could cause your sink to discolor).

• Aluminum kitchen utensils and pots and pans may leave a silver mark on your

sink. These marks can easily be removed with an abrasive cleaner or a SCOTCH

BRITE™ pad. Hard water deposits can be removed with an abrasive cleaner,

vinegar or lemon juice.

• To prevent staining and discoloration of your sink always rinse your sink after

use with clean warm water.

Maintenance

• Your Granite sink is resistant to normal household detergents. However, avoid

prolonged exposure to paint strippers, caustic soda, descalers and nail varnish.

These items could cause your sink to discolor.

• Do not use wire wool or steel soap pads as steel particles can become

embedded in your sink and rust.

• Your sink will withstand temperatures of up to 550 degrees F. Most accessories such

as wire baskets will not withstand temperatures that extreme and may melt.

• Always rinse your sink with warm clean water after use. If you have hard

water, you should also wipe your sink dry.

• Periodically wipe down sink with vegetable oil to repel mineral and

calcium deposits.
