Installation – Topmount (continued)

Installing the ﬂangeless strainer

NOTE: If you are installing a garbage disposer (not supplied), do not

install the strainer. See “Installation – Garbage Disposer” on page 11.

□ Apply a small amount of plumber’s putty (not included) in

the notch around the drain hole of the sink (A).

□ Connect the upper strainer body (D) and the strainer ring (E),

and insert them into the drain hole from the top of the sink (A).

□ Connect the strainer gasket (F) and lower strainer body (G), and

insert them into the drain hole from underneath the sink (A).

□ Insert the strainer screw (C) through the entire assembly,

from the upper strainer body (D) to the lower strainer

body (G). Tighten with a Phillips screwdriver.

□ Connect the plastic ﬂange (1) and tail pipe (2), and thread the

connecting nut (3) through the tail pipe and ﬂange up to the

lower strainer body (G). Lock the connecting nut by hand.

NOTE: The plastic ﬂange (1), tail pipe (2), and connecting nut

(3) are not supplied.

Installing the sink

NOTE: Install the faucet and soap dispenser (not included)

according to the manufacturer’s instructions before this step.

□ Apply silicone sealant (not included) around the underside

of the lip of the sink (A) on all four sides.

□ Carefully lower the sink (A) into the counter, ensuring that

the factory installed topmount clips (H) do not catch on the

counter edges.

□ Slide each topmount clip (H) along the rails so that they are

evenly spaced around the sink (A).

□ Swing the clamps on the topmount clips (H), and tighten

the screws progressively until the sink rim is ﬂush with

the counter. Check the alignment as you tighten so that the

front of the sink (A) is parallel to the front of the counter.

Adjust and re-tighten if necessary. Do not over tighten.

□ Wipe away the excess sealant with a rag.
