Frequently Asked Questions - NorGranite 78.50 1B 1D WH NODOR

How to install the NorGranite 78.50 sink?

Turn the sink over on the countertop, trace the outline, then a line 10 mm inside for the cutout. Drill a hole in the cutout area and use a jigsaw to follow the line. Seal the cutout edges with waterproof sealant. Apply silicone under the sink rim, position it and secure with the provided clips. Tighten the screws progressively in the indicated order (front, back, sides).

What type of silicone to use for installation?

Use kitchen silicone (not provided) to seal the sink rim. Avoid putty or epoxy adhesives.

How to drill the hole for the faucet?

Identify the pre-marked areas on the back of the sink. Use a 35 mm hole saw and drill from underneath the sink, then finish from the top for a clean edge. Cool the bit with water if necessary. Install the faucet according to the manufacturer's instructions.

What are the daily maintenance tips?

Wash the sink with warm water, a soft cloth or non-abrasive nylon pad, and a non-abrasive liquid detergent. Rinse and dry after each use.

How to remove stubborn stains on the sink?

Apply a small amount of mild abrasive liquid cleaner and gently scrub with a nylon pad. Repeat if necessary. Do not use abrasive creams or powders.

What to do about limescale or calcium deposits?

Clean with a non-abrasive nylon pad soaked in white vinegar. Let sit for 20 minutes, then rinse thoroughly with clear water.

Can the drainboard be used as a cutting board?

No, never use the drainboard as a cutting board. This could scratch the sink surface.

Which cleaning products are not recommended?

Avoid abrasive creams or powders, scouring pads, ammonia, concentrated caustic soda, formic acid, and any highly corrosive products.

How to check for leaks after installation?

Connect the supply and drain pipes. Fill the sink with water, check for leaks around the drain pipe. Drain the water and check again. If necessary, tighten the connections.

Can the sink be installed under an already fixed countertop?

Yes, if the countertop is already fixed to the cabinet, you can place the sink in the opening and secure it from underneath using the clips. Follow the same cutting and sealing steps.

Notes

• During installation, take care to protect the sink from scuffs and scratches.
• Do not stand on the sink.
• During installation, do not stand the sink on its edges or corners. This may cause damage.
• Avoid straining and over tightening of all plumbing fixtures connected to the sink.
• Carefully check that the moulding and edges of the sink are dead level so that water will flow off the drainer.
• The clamping brackets are suitable for worktops of between 30–40 mm thickness (Fig. 1.1). If your worktop is a different size then it may require packing under the clamps or rebating (Fig. 1.2).

Preparing the Worktop

Marking Out the Opening

We recommend that you fit the sink to the worktop before permanently fixing the worktop to the cabinet.

1. Place the sink upside down on the worktop. Position the sink on the worktop as required. Make sure the cabinet framework will clear all parts of the sink. Using a soft, sharp pencil draw around the sink as accurately as possible (Fig. 1.3). Remove the sink.

2. Draw another line 10 mm inside the sink top outline – this is the cutting line for the opening (Fig. 1.4).

3. Drill as large a hole as possible inside the cutting line. Using a pad saw, jigsaw or similar, cut out the opening up to the cutting line.

Sealing the Edges of the Opening.

We recommend that porous edges around the cut-out are sealed using a waterproof sealant such as varnish, paint or wood glue. This will prevent swelling of the worktop should any small leaks occur (Fig. 1.5)

Preparing the Sink

Tap Hole Preparation

Drilling a pre-marked hole for taps

• Before drilling please read safety instructions supplied with hole saw.
• The front face must be fully supported to prevent cracking when drilling or cutting.
• WARNING!

Any machining operation will produce fine particles of dust. Drilling or cutting MUST be carried out in a well-ventilated area.

1. Identify which pre marked tap hole(s) you will require.
2. Using a hole saw, drill out the tap hole part way from the underside of the sink Fig. 1.6. Finish drilling the hole from the upper surface of the sink to ensure a clean hole.
3. It may be necessary to cool the tip of the drill with water to prevent burning. For this reason we recommend the use of a rechargeable drill. Take special care if using a mains electric drill around water.
4. Attach the tap, waste and overflow (where required) to the sink according to the manufacturer's Instructions.

Applying the Silicon Sealant

• DO NOT use Epoxi sealant or Epoxi adhesive.

Apply a bead of "Silicone sealant" (not included) to the underside of the sink flange. For final fit, make sure each sink clip is pulled back as shown in Fig. 1.7. Position the sink into the work top opening.

Secure the sink by pivoting the sink clips into the position Fig. 1.8 and tighten screws in the front, then tighten rear and side screws.

Waste Fittings

Fit the waste fittings to the sink using the instructions supplied with them. Apply a uniform bead of silicone onto the underside of the rim of the sink, 1/4 inch from the outeredges of the rim.

Fitting the Sink

1. Turn the sink upside down and lay the

worktop over the sink. Swing each clip into place – this is the most effective method, although if the worktop has been fitted to the cabinet the sink can be placed in the opening and fixed in position from underneath.

1. Centre the sink. Tighten the fixing screws in the sequence shown in Fig. 1.9.

• DO NOT TIGHTEN FULLY AT FIRST ATTEMPT.

1. Remove any surplus sealing material or wipe away any excess sealant.

Check for Leaks:

• Supply user tubes to faucet
• Supply riser tubes to shut off valves or lower connections
- Fill sink with water and check for leak around drain
- Release water from sink and check for possible leaks
- Tighten a s needed

After Care

Day-to-day care

Although your sink is made from extremely durable materials and will withstand a great deal of hard use, it can be scratched by hard or sharp objects. If the surfaces are to be kept in a blemish free condition reasonable care should be taken when handling such items.

• DO NOT USE THE DRAINER AS A CHOPPING BOARD.

Cleaning

Wash your sink using warm water, a soft cloth or non-abrasive woven nylon pad and a non-abrasive liquid cleaner or detergent. This can be done as often as the sink is used.

Metallic Abrasions or Heavy Stains:

Wipe the sink using a soft cloth or non-abrasive woven nylon pad and a liquid scouring product. Apply the liquid scouring product sparingly and rub lightly. Repeat as necessary until sink is clean.

Hard Water, Calcium and Lime Deposits:

Wipe with a non-Abrasive woven nylon pad and white vinegar. Rinse after 20 minutes.

- Do not use abrasive cleaning creams or powders, scrub pads or alkali cleaners such as ammonia, concentrated caustic soda, formic acid or anything highly corrosive.
