1. Prepare the Counter
With the edges of the template parallel with the edges of the
counter, affix the template to the counter using masking tape.
NOTE:
A counter with radius edges is recommended.
Determine the preferred edge treatment for the counter. Consult
with your local counter fabricator for instructions on cutting the
counter edges properly.
Determine which cutout line you will be using. If the edge of the
counter will be
flush
with the edge of the bath rim, you must cut
the
inner
line. If the edge of the counter will be
offset
from the
edge of the bath rim, you must cut the
outer
line.
Using the proper cutting method for your counter type, cut along
the chosen edge of the template cutout line.
Remove the template when cutting is complete.
Smooth the edge of the counter as needed.
Carefully position the counter on top of the bath to ensure correct
fit and appearance. Adjust as necessary.
CAUTION: Risk of property damage.
Braces must be
installed to support the weight of the counter from below. Do
not rely on the bath alone to support this weight. Refer to
any instructions supplied with the counter for proper bracing
installation. If braces are not installed, the counter may flex
and possibly damage the bath.
