NOTE: Pay close attention to the order of the sink flange parts, as they have been correctly assembled by the factory.

A. Disassemble the sink flange assembly from the disposer by turning the mount ring to the left (clockwise) and removing it.

B. Raise the mount ring toward the top of the sink flange. Remove the cushion mount and the mount ring. You may want to practice installing the cushion mount at this point before you are under the sink.

C. Unscrew the support ring from the sink flange and remove the fiber gasket. You are now left with the sink flange and the rubber gasket.

D. The rubber gasket is used instead of plumbers putty with stainless steel sinks.

E. If no putty is used, insert the sink flange through the rubber gasket into the sink opening. Do not turn the flange once it is seated.

F.If you use putty instead of the gasket, form a ring around the underside of the sink flange. Insert the flange into the sink opening, press down hard to squeeze out excess putty. From under the sink, trim off excess putty flush with the bottom edge of the sink opening. Use putty sparingly on cast iron sinks.

G. From underneath the sink, slip the fiber gasket onto the exposed sink flange. With

arrows pointing up, screw the support ring onto the sink flange and hand tighten until the sink flange will not move. At

this point you may want to insert the stopper in the sink and fill with water to check the sink flange seal and insure there are no leaks.

H.Place the mount ring over the sink flange and hold in place while installing the cushion mount (large side down). Make sure the groove on the inside of the cushion mount fits over the

lip on the sink flange,

slight pressure. Do not press too hard. When the cushion mount is properly seated, the mount ring can be pulled downward over the cushion mount and will be free to turn.
