4.2 Countertop Preparation (Top-Mount)

1. Position Template: Place the provided cutout template on the countertop in the desired sink location. Ensure adequate clearance from cabinets and walls.
2. Trace Cutout: Carefully trace the outline of the template onto the countertop using a pencil.
3. Cut Opening: Using a jigsaw or appropriate cutting tool for your countertop material, cut along the traced line. Support the cutout piece to prevent it from falling and damaging the countertop or floor.

4.3 Sink Installation

1. Apply Sealant: Apply a continuous bead of silicone sealant around the perimeter of the cutout opening on the countertop.
2. Place Sink: Carefully lower the sink into the cutout opening, ensuring it is centered and aligned. Press down firmly to create a good seal with the silicone.
3. Secure Clips: Attach the mounting clips to the underside of the sink rim and tighten them against the countertop. Do not overtighten.
4. Wipe Excess Sealant: Remove any excess silicone sealant from around the sink rim immediately.

4.4 Drain Assembly

1. Install Strainer: Follow the instructions provided with your drain assembly kit to install the strainer and stopper into the sink's drain opening. Ensure all gaskets and seals are correctly positioned to prevent leaks.
2. Connect Plumbing: Connect the sink's drain to your household plumbing system. Ensure all connections are tight and leak-free.

6. Maintenance

Proper care will ensure the longevity and appearance of your VEVOR kitchen sink.

• Daily Cleaning: Clean the sink regularly with a soft cloth or sponge and mild dish soap. Rinse thoroughly with water and wipe dry to prevent water spots.
• Nano PVD Brushed Surface: The premium nano PVD brushed surface is corrosion-resistant and easy to clean. Avoid abrasive cleaners, steel wool, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the finish.
• R10° Rounded Corners: The R10° rounded corners are designed for easy cleaning. Use a small brush if necessary to reach tight areas.
• Preventing Scratches: While the sink is dent-resistant, avoid dragging heavy or sharp objects across the surface. The included bottom grid helps protect the sink base from scratches.
• Stain Removal: For stubborn stains, use a non-abrasive stainless steel cleaner according to the product instructions. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.

7. Troubleshooting

This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your VEVOR kitchen sink.

• Slow Drainage: Ensure the drain strainer is clear of debris. Check plumbing connections for any blockages. The sink's X-shaped drain design and sloped bottom are engineered for efficient drainage, so persistent slow drainage may indicate a plumbing issue.
• Water Spots: Water spots are common with stainless steel, especially in hard water areas. To minimize, wipe the sink dry after each use. For existing spots, use a stainless steel cleaner or a solution of vinegar and water, then rinse and dry.
• Scratches: While the sink is designed to be durable, scratches can occur. Minor scratches can sometimes be blended with a fine abrasive pad (e.g., Scotch-Brite) by rubbing in the direction of the grain. For deeper scratches, professional repair may be required. Always use the bottom grid to protect the sink base.
• Leaking Around Drain: Check that the drain assembly is properly tightened and that all gaskets and plumber's putty (if used) are correctly sealed. Retighten connections if necessary.
