CHECK INSTALLATION DIMENSIONS
A: Disposer Height
B: Distance from bottom of sink
bowl to centerline of discharge
outlet. (Add 1/2" when stainless
steel sink is used.)
C: Distance from centerline of
the discharge outlet to end
of discharge tube.
D: Disposer Width
E: Distance from disposer vertical
centerline to centerline of
P-trap connection.
F: Centerline of disposer discharge to centerline at waste pipe entering wall.
(Dimension “F” must be greater than 1/4" to prevent standing water in disposer.)
DISCONNECT SINK DRAIN
1. Loosen nut (A) at top of “P-trap" with pipe wrench (see Figure 2-1).
2. Loosen nut (B) at top of extension pipe. Remove extension pipe.
3. Loosen nut (C) at base of sink ange. (If nut is corroded or too tight, apply
penetrating lubricant.)
4. Push sink ange up through sink hole and remove it (see Figure 2-2).
5. Clean sink ange area of any putty or other debris.
DISASSEMBLE NEW DISPOSER
MOUNTING ASSEMBLY
1. Insert wrenchette (or screwdriver) into one mounting lug and hold lower mount-
ing ring securely with one hand (see Figure 3-1). With your other hand, turn
mounting assembly counterclockwise to remove mounting assembly from lower
mounting ring.
2. Turn mounting assembly over (see Figure 3-2) and loosen three mounting
screws (A) until you can access snap ring (B).
3. Use screwdriver to pry snap ring off of sink ange. Mounting assembly will
now come apart.
INSTALL FLANGE IN SINK HOLE
1. Roll 1/4 pound (4 oz.) of non-hardening plumber’s putty to make 3/4" thick rope
to seal around sink ange.
2. Apply putty evenly around sink hole (see Figure 4-1).
3. Press sink ange slowly but rmly into sink drain hole to seat evenly on putty
(see Figure 4-2). Use screwdriver or putty knife to scrape all putty from edge
of sink hole.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
If replacing an existing disposer, skip ahead to Instruction 6.
If this is a rst time installation, continue with Instruction 2.
Do not use plumber's putty on any other disposer connection - it
may harm disposer and cause property damage.
1. Working from under sink, slip ber gasket and
metal backup ring over sink ange.
2. Holding ber gasket and backup ring in place,
slip mounting ring over sink ange so it seats
against backup ring.
3. With ber gasket, backup ring, and mounting
ring tight to sink bottom, slide snap ring onto
sink ange until it pops into groove on ange*.
4. Tighten three mounting screws up to sink
until mounting assembly is seated tightly
and evenly against sink.
* Placing a thick, wide rubber band around
the sink ange (above the snap ring
groove) may help hold parts in place while
installing snap ring. (Remember to remove
rubber band after snap ring is installed.)
If you are replacing an existing disposer, go to Instruction 6. If this is a rst time installation,
skip ahead to Instruction 7.
