1. To ensure professional results, the cabinet and
countertop openings should be prepared by a
qualified cabinet worker.

2. The clearances shown in Fig.1 are required for
installations of cooktop and islands.

3. The cooktop is designed to hang from the coun-
tertop by its side flanges. The countertop how
ever, must be strong enough to support this
heavy cooktop. It may be necessary to add a 2
x 4 corner brace (See Figs.3, 4, and 5). Another
alternate would be to construct a deck to set the
cooktop on.

4. The cooktop can be installed in various positions
with the front either flush or projecting, depend-
ing on the countertop depth. (See Fig.2 side
view of cooktop; see Figs.3-5 for alternate
mounting positions.)
