1. Prepare the Site

NOTICE: If the K-2607 bridge cabinet will also be installed, extend

the backing material a minimum of 12″ (305 mm) beyond the width

of the vanity on the side where the bridge will be installed.

NOTICE: To properly secure the vanity, the top of the required 2x6

backing material must be 32-1/2″ (826 mm) from the ﬁnished ﬂoor.

Measure and mark 32-1/2″ (826 mm) up from the ﬁnished ﬂoor.

This will be the height from the ﬁnished ﬂoor to the top of the

2x6 backing material.

Ensure there are no obstructions in the wall (such as wiring or

plumbing) from the marked height down to the ﬂoor. If there are

obstructions, select another area to install the vanity.

NOTICE: Extend the backing material beyond the width of the

vanity to the nearest stud to ensure proper support for the vanity.

Front-notch the studs 1-1/2″ (38 mm) to ensure the 2x6 backing

material is ﬂush against the studs.

Secure the 2x6 backing material to the studs with framing nails.

Rough-in the water supply and drain lines into the rough-in

plumbing area of the vanity.

NOTICE: The ﬁnished wall must be straight and plumb to ensure

proper support of the vanity and alignment of the sink and door.

2. Secure the Vanity

CAUTION: Risk of property damage. Select 250 lb (113.4

kg) load bearing 5/16″ lag bolts with a length to clear

obstacles in the wall and 5/16″ washers. Calculate proper lag

bolt length by adding the following: 1-1/2″ (38 mm) backing

material + wallboard thickness + back rail thickness.

IMPORTANT! Risk of product damage. Use care when moving the

vanity to avoid impacting, sliding, or side-loading the legs.

With assistance, lift and place the vanity in position against the

ﬁnished wall. Do not drag the vanity into position.

Verify the vanity is level and the back rail is plumb against the

wall. If necessary, turn the leveler(s) to adjust the unit.

Using a 1/4″ drill bit, drill pilot holes through the back rail and

the ﬁnished wall. Verify the pilot holes are positioned to ensure

the lag bolts will engage the 2x6 backing material.

Secure the vanity to the wall with two 5/16″ lag bolts and

washers (not provided).

to the vanity. Do not use 100% silicone sealant which will damage

the vanity ﬁnish.

Run a 1/4″ (6 mm) continuous bead of siliconized acrylic caulk

around the top of the vanity, as illustrated.

NOTE: The sink is properly positioned when: (1) the back edge of

the sink is ﬂush against the ﬁnished wall and (2) the overhang on

the left, right, and front side of the sink is equal on each side of the

vanity.

With assistance, lift and properly position the sink on top of the

vanity.

Immediately wipe away any excess caulk that contacts the vanity.

Care and Cleaning (cont.)

•

Carefully read the cleaner product label to ensure the cleaner is

safe for use on the material.

•

Always test your cleaning solution on an inconspicuous area

before applying to the entire surface.

•

Do not allow cleaners to sit or soak on the surface.

•

Wipe surfaces clean and rinse completely with water immediately

after cleaner application. Rinse and dry any overspray that lands

on nearby surfaces.

•

Use a soft, dampened sponge or cloth. Never use an abrasive

material such as a brush or scouring pad to clean surfaces.

Wood Surfaces

•

As with any smooth surface, avoid using abrasive cleaners as

they will scratch the surface. Wipe the wood surface regularly to

prevent buildup of soap and scum.

•

To protect against scratches, use felt, leather, or cork under all

items placed on the wood surface. To conceal scratches, a

touch-up marker is available for order. Contact a Kohler

distributor or call 1-800-4-KOHLER for ordering information.

•

Do not expose wood furniture to direct sunlight, drying heat

sources, or dampness.

•

Dust frequently with a soft cloth in the direction of the grain. Use

only products speciﬁcally made for cleaning wood. Avoid using

oily polishes or waxes, or products containing silicone. Blot spills

immediately with a soft, damp cloth.

•

Every six months, remove soil buildup by rubbing with a soft

cloth dampened in a 50/50 solution of warm water and an

ammonia-free detergent. Wipe clean with a cloth dampened in

warm water, then wipe dry.
