Read the following instructions thoroughly before installation of the sink:

For compliance

• Observe all local plumbing and building codes.

For preparation

• Unpack new sink and inspect it for damage. Afterward, return the sink to its protective carton until the installation begins.
• Shut off hot and cold water supplies. Inspect drain and supply tubing. Replace if necessary.
• Ensure at least two people are available to assist during the installation to maintain safe handling.

For top-mount installation

• It's recommended to have an experienced cabinet maker build the new cabinet or modify an existing cabinet to ensure a successful installation.

• The cabinet and frame shown in the illustrations are generic and intended as suggestions only. All illustrations in the following instructions assume installation with a standard countertop. Other countertop sizes may also be used.
• Use proper securing hardware and techniques to ensure the support frame will bear a minimum of 300 lbs (136kg).

Wall Mount Installation

Important: This sink is heavy. When installing on drywall, make sure proper wall reinforcement—such as a support board or framing—is installed behind the wall to securely support the sink's weight.

Step I. Install Mounting Brackets

1. Make sure the water supply is 8" apart for a two-hole faucet installation.
2. Mark intended locations of brackets and check it for levelness.

(Spacing corresponds to model numbers: 12.5" - 13.0" for ERI-US-201, 13.0" - 13.2" for ERI-US-202, 19.3" - 19.7" for ERI-US-204)

3. Hold the brackets level and mark the locations for the screw holes on the wall. Install the mounting brackets to the wall and check again for levelness before fully tightening all screws into position.

Step II. Install Sink

1. Carefully lower the sink onto the bracket using the slot on the back of the item and check levelness. Make adjustments if necessary.
2. Install faucet and drain assembly according to the manufacturer's instructions.
   Reminder: Do not overtighten fittings as it might damage the chinaware.
3. Run water to test for leakage.

Before proceeding, determine your cabinet design:

Cabinet Design Options:

• Recessed Setback
• Sink Front Extending beyond the Cabinet
• Sink Front Enclosed by the Cabinet

Step I. Construct Cabinet and Support Frame

1. Measure the actual size of sink below the rim flange.

2. Carefully measure and sketch the cut-out area according to the measurements taken from the actual sink. Cut the countertop and cabinet along the traced lines.
3. Construct a wood support frame inside the cabinet opening using 2x4 lumber and a ½" plywood, as shown in the illustration. Locate and cut the drain outlet clearance hole on the plywood.

Step II. Install Sink

1. Temporarily set the sink on the cabinet opening, ensuring it aligns properly and has sufficient clearance. Trace its outer edge as a guide for application of sealant, then remove the sink.
2. Apply masking tape ½" beyond the traced outline, and generously apply silicone sealant within the marked area (inside the traced lines of a) on the countertop.
3. Carefully lower the sink into place, aligning it with the countertop guidelines, and press down firmly.
4. Apply additional sealant if necessary to provide a uniform bead from the sink rim to the masking tape. Remove any excess sealant before peeling off the tape.
5. Install water supply and drainage system according to the manufacturer's instructions.
   Reminder: Do not overtighten fittings as it might damage the chinaware.
6. Run water to test for leakage.

Eridanus utility sinks are meticulously handcrafted with fine fireclay or ceramic and have undergone strict quality inspections. With proper care and cleaning measures, Eridanus sinks will keep in new condition and function well for an extended period of time.

General Cleaning

• To keep your Eridanus sink looking its best, clean it regularly to prevent soap scum and mineral buildup.
• When cleaning, use a non-abrasive cleaner and a soft cloth to rinse the sink thoroughly and wipe it dry to eliminate water spots, as allowing water or cleaners to evaporate will have a negative effect on the appearance of the sink.
