Tools and Materials
Before You Begin
CAUTION: Risk of personal injury or product damage. Cast
iron sinks are very heavy. Get assistance lifting the sink into
place.
Observe all local plumbing and building codes.
Shut off the hot and cold water supplies.
Inspect the drain and supply tubing. Replace if necessary.
Prior to installation, unpack the new sink and inspect it for
damage. Return the sink to its protective carton until you are
ready to install it.
Due to the nature of undercounter installations, Kohler Co.
recommends that undercounter sink installations be performed by
trained and experienced installers.
To ensure a safe and damage-free installation, two people should
install the sink.
Plan the sink installation so future removal from underneath the
countertop is possible without damaging the countertop.
For multiple-bowl installations, additional support will be
required between bowls installed in countertops that are less than
1″(2.5 cm) thick.
For multiple-bowl, undercounter installations, a minimum
distance of 3-3/8″(8.6 cm) is required between the cutouts.
A minimum countertop thickness of 1″(2.5 cm) is required if
using the anchors provided.
Do not use adhesives or adhesive sealants with this product.
