USER MANUAL KA55SS CDA

Offer up the sink to the worktop and/or the cabinets to confirm that the external dimensions of the bowls are compatible with the cabinets themselves.

Confirm that with the sink in position:

• There is adequate space to install any taps or other required accessories.
• There is adequate space to install the waste pipework and that any necessary modification to internal shelves to accommodate the waste (and trap) is acceptable.
• Access to any water stop-cock or other services will still be adequate after the installation.

Installation

• Use the template included with the sink to mark out where the worktop needs to be cut.
• After cutting out the worktop aperture, we recommend you seal the cut edges with silicone (or similar) sealant to help prevent ingress of water.
  • Position the supplied gasket around the perimeter of the hole (Fig. 1).

- It is often easier to mount the taps, waste-fitting and overflow onto the sink prior to fitting the sink to the worktop.

- Ensure that the external edge of the sink is positioned on the gasket, to create a barrier to the ingress of water and other items between sink and worktop.

• After positioning the sink on the worktop, position the fixing brackets as shown in Fig. 2, then tighten their screws.

- Do not use a power tool to tighten the screws; by using a hand tool it is easier to ensure that they are tightened just enough to clamp down on the worktop and no more.

• After fixing, remove any excess gasket material with a suitable cutter.
• We recommend a thin bead of silicone sealer is applied around the perimeter as added protection against water ingress.
- The taps, waste-fitting and overflow can now be mounted onto the sink (if not already done) and fully connected to their respective services.
- To check the waste for leaks, close the plug/basket of the waste fitting, open the tap and fill the sink to the level of the overflow; turn off the tap and wait several minutes to verify that the water doesn't drain away.
• Empty the sink.

After fitting, ensure that the enclosed “Stainless Steel Sinks Use and Maintenance” guide is retained for the customer and/or user of the sink.
