Countertops made from natural (i.e. granite and marble)
or SOLID SURFACE MATERIALS, such as Surell™ and
Corian®, require special cutout preparation and
installation procedures. Follow the guidelines in
preparing the cutout dimensions. Install the cooktop as
follows:
A. Round Corners on Cutout
Round the cutout corners according to
instructions from the countertop manufacturer.
B. Seal the Cooktop
Apply heat reflective tape (such as Scotch
®
Aluminum Foil Tape #425 or #427) around the
cutout so that it folds over the top and side
surfaces. Be sure the tape extends beyond the
outermost flange of the cooktop. All corners
should also be covered with tape. Let bottom
edge of tape hang free. See Fig. 3 on Page 23.
C. Attach Brackets
Attach brackets to the burner box using washers
and screws provided. Use a wooden block
underneath the countertop before tightening
the bracket screws. See Fig. 4 on Page 23
