Installation Guide
Step 1: Prepare the Countertop
Place the sink onto the countertop. Trace the outline of the sink onto the countertop, ensuring a 10mm (3/8") margin from the sink's edge. This margin is crucial for the cut-out.
Step 2: Drill Holes for Cutting
Drill pilot holes (Ø 1/8" / 3mm) at each corner of the traced cut-out line (4 holes total). Subsequently, drill larger holes (Ø 5/16" / 8mm) along the traced cut-out line to facilitate the cutting process (4 holes total).
Step 3: Cut and Seal the Opening
Carefully cut out the countertop opening following the traced line. Apply a bead of silicone sealant along the cut edges of the countertop to create a watertight seal.
Step 4: Position and Secure the Sink
Gently place the sink into the prepared opening in the countertop, ensuring it is correctly aligned. Secure the sink from underneath using the provided mounting clips. Depending on the specific sink configuration, you will use either 12 clips or 8 clips. Fasten these clips using screws of appropriate length (28-40 mm / 1 1/8 - 1 5/8") that are suitable for your countertop material.
Step 5: Connect Plumbing
Install the mixer tap and the water trap (such as the LILLVIKEN trap) following their respective installation instructions. Ensure all plumbing connections are tight and secure.
