Tile-In Installation
Cut out the opening by carefully following the pencil line traced
from the template.
Drill the faucet holes according to the faucet installation
instructions.
Measure and compare the thickness of the lavatory rim and tile.
The lavatory rim thickness is 1/2" (1.3 cm) plus or minus 1/16" (2
mm). Because of the varying thickness of the tile and lavatory, or
if adhesive or mortar bed installation is used, make allowances to
shim the lavatory, or route the underlayment as required.
NOTE: The lavatory is designed to be installed flush or slightly
lower than the surrounding tile.
Provide shims, or route the underlayment, as needed.
Position the lavatory in the countertop opening. Verify the fit and
position.
Carefully remove the lavatory.
Install the drain to the lavatory according to the drain
manufacturer's instructions.
Apply two beads of sealant to the inside of the pencil line.
NOTE: Apply sealant quickly as it sets within minutes.
