Installing the waste disposer

1Loosen the clamp screw to allow the mounting system to be removed from the unit (fig.2).

2Turn the mounting assembly over and remove the flange ring from the track on the sink flange. Undo the three screws holding it together. This will allow the sink flange, mount ring, and protector ring to separate (fig 3).

Use the flat blade screwdriver as a lever if required.

3Apply a small amount of plumbers putty to the lip of the sink flange and position the sink flange into the sink drain hole ensuring that the rubber gasket on the underside of the sink flange is firmly in place (fig.4).

4Approaching from under the sink, slide the protector ring and mount ring onto the underside of the sink flange. Fit the flange ring into the track on the sink flange, then tighten the 3 mounting screws evenly and securely (fig.5).

Note:

Ensure that the mounting assembly connection is fixed securely and tightly.

No dishwasher connection required

If a dishwasher is not being connected to the waste disposer, please proceed to step 7.

Connecting to a dishwasher

If you are connecting to a dishwasher, please continue with steps 5 & 6.

5Using a blunt instrument (steel punch or wooden dowel), knock out the entire plug at the end of the dishwasher drain inlet (as shown in fig.6). Do not use a screwdriver or sharp instrument. When the knockout plug falls into disposer, you may remove it or simply grind it up when the disposer is used. This will not damage the disposer in any way, but may take some time to grind, over the course of several uses.

6Connect the dishwasher drain hose to the dishwasher inlet pipe on the waste disposer (fig. 6). Use a clamp to ensure a tight seal. A stepped rubber adaptor (not supplied with the product) may be required if the diameter of the drain hose is larger than the diameter of the waste disposer’s inlet connection.
