1. Preparation
IMPORTANT! Use the cut-out template supplied with your specific
model. Cutout shape varies by model.
Position the template on the countertop.
For Wall-Mount Faucets: Provide sufficient spout overhang into
the lavatory basin. The faucet spout length must be at least 5"
(12.7 cm) to provide proper performance.
For Countertop Faucets: Pay special attention to the spout and
handle fit clearance when locating the faucet. Use the template to
locate the faucet spout hole centerline on the countertop. This
centerline is recommended to provide adequate clearance
between the edge of the lavatory and the spout.
Check for adequate clearance between the backsplash, faucet
spout and handles, and lavatory. Kohler Co. recommends a
clearance of at least 1" (2.5 cm).
Refer to the faucet installation instructions for required clearance,
and mark the preferred faucet hole locations using a soft lead
pencil.
Trace the template on the countertop.
