Important!
Please do not remove clamp and splash guard from hopper. Both parts are factory installed and installation ready.
10Align the discharge elbow up with the waste pipe (refer to fig.11) so that the waste disposer is correctly positioned, prior to engaging with the mounting assembly.
11Guide the waste disposer up to the sink flange (fig. 9). Engage the groove of the splash guard around the ridge at the bottom of the sink flange. A slight rocking motion may be required to help ensure a proper fit.
12While still supporting the body of the waste disposer, tighten the screw clamp around the rubber splash guard (fig.10). The waste disposer will now hang by itself.
13Connect the discharge elbow up with the waste pipe (fig.11) and tighten the slip nut on the drain pipe.
Note:
If you need to rotate the waste disposer to connect with the waste pipe, it is important to make sure the sink flange does not turn. Movement of the sink flange will break the seal. If this occurs, disengage the waste disposer from the discharge elbow and mounting assembly Return to step 10 to realign the waste disposer before repeating steps
Important
Ensure that the reset button is readily accessible after installation of the waste disposer.
