Position the worktop on the base units, checking the overhang is even. 2. To join the worktop to another piece of worktop, start by measuring it's width. Use a joining strip and cut to the correct length using a hack saw. 3. Place the strip with the flat surface against the cut edge and screw into place. 4. Clamp the worktop into position, fixed to the units from the underside. 5. Drill three holes in the back and front support struts of each cabinet – one hole both ends and one in the middle for each unit. 6. Screw the units to the worktop. 7. To finish the cut edges use the supplied end strip. Cut the correct size by taping it to the end and using the worktop as a template. 8. Carefully cut using scissors. 9. Use masking tape to protect the surface of the worktop before applying contact adhesive. 10. Brush the contact adhesive on to the end strip and the end of the worktop, make sure the surface you are doing this on is protected and keep a window open to allow ventilation. 11. Leave the contact adhesive for 15 minutes to dry. 12. Stick the end strip into place and peel off the tape (if the end strip still protrudes, use sandpaper or a file to neaten).
