(make certain that there are no support ribs under the sink in
that location). Cover the designated location for the Faucet
installation on sink with masking tape. Use the punch and
hammer to make a light indentation at the designated location
for the Faucet installation.

NOTE
If your sink has another hole that currently has a spray attachment, you may decide to
remove the spray attachment, and use the existing hole to continue your installation
(skip the next section and go to “Faucet Installation”).
CAUTION
This type of sink can be scratched easily. Use extreme care. If you have any doubts
about doing this yourself, consult a licensed plumber.
WARNING
Use EXTREME CAUTION with electric power tools near water. Ensure that there is no
standing water in the sink and that the area is dry. Failure to follow this warning could
result in serious injury or death.
