Installation

1 Option 1: Mounting Bracket to Back or Side of Cabinet

NOTE: If cabinet wall is less than ¾ in. thick, attach ¾ in. plywood to inside of cabinet using four wood screws (not included).

□ Notch the top of the wall ¼ in. by 2-1/8 in.. Cut a ¼ in. radius on the inside wall.

□ If mounting to the side of the cabinet, use a jigsaw to cut a slot at least ½ in. by 2-1/8 in. in any support that obstructs the bracket’s fit.

□ Using the bracket as a template, mark and drill 1/8 in. pilot holes ½ in. deep.

□ Make sure the bracket fits tightly on the wall surface and there is a 1/16 in. gap (very important) from the top of the bracket to the top of the wall. If not, remove material in the notch or the radius.

□ Attach the bracket to the wall using the two (2) ¾ in. wood screws (AA), one in each the bottom and middle holes.

□ See Adjusting Set Screws and Installing Countertop on page 7.

2 Option 2: Mounting Bracket to Front of Cabinet with Doors

NOTE: If there is not a 2 in. wide surface to mount the bracket on the front wall, a 1 in. x 3 in. x 12 in. piece of wood can be mounted to the cabinet sidewall several inches away from the front face. The distance from the front face to the back side of the 1 in. x 3 in. x 12 in. becomes the wall thickness when sizing the bracket.

□ Attach each bracket to a 1 in. x 3 in. x 12 in. piece of wood using the two (2) wood screws (AA) provided.

□ Fit-check the bracket on the sidewall and mark the top wall of the front cabinet where each bracket is located.

□ Notch the top wall ¼ in. by 2-1/8 in. at each marked location.

□ Attach the 1 in. x 3 in. x 12 in. pieces of wood to the sides of the cabinet using three (3) wood screws (not provided), making sure that there is ¼ in. gap (very important) from the top of the 1 in. x 3 in. x 12 in. pieces of wood to the top of wall.

□ See Adjusting Set Screws and Installing Countertop on page 7.

Installation (continued)

3 Option 3: Mounting Bracket to Wall

□ Install 2x4 in. cross braces between the wall studs to support the brackets. The brackets can be mounted on a stud or any location on the cross braces.

□ For a single-level countertop, notch the top of the 2x4 in. cap ¼ in. by 2-1/8 in. and cut a ¼ in. radius on the inside wall.

□ For a two-level countertop, make additional notches on the back of the wall ½ in. deep by 2-1/8 in. so the backsplash or finished surface can cover the brackets.

□ Make sure the brackets fit tightly on the wall surface and there is a 1⁄16 in. gap (very important) from the tops of the brackets to top of the wall.

□ Attach each bracket to the wall using two (2) ¾ in. wood screws (AA), one in each the bottom and middle holes.

□ Continue to Adjusting Set Screws and Installing Countertop.

4 Adjusting Set Screws and Installing Countertop

□ Turn the set screws (BB) to level the end of the bracket with other parts of the counter.

□ Use a level to confirm the end of the bracket is level and both set screws (BB) are equally engaged.

□ Turn both set screws (BB) the additional of number of turns listed in the table below. This provides support at the end of the bracket and ensures uniform support of your specific countertop by preloading the bracket.

□ Install the countertop and apply caulk around the perimeter of the bracket under the countertop.
