Installation instructions
7
Connect the discharge elbow to the lower outlet on the waste
disposer (fig. 7).
8
Prior to connecting the waste disposer to the mounting
assembly, press firmly down on the rubber splash guard to
check that is firmly fitted onto the neck of the hopper.
9
Lubricate the top lip and angled surface of the rubber splash
guard with liquid soap or petroleum jelly (fig. 8 ).
Important!
Please do not remove clamp and splash guard from hopper. Both parts
are factory installed and installation ready.
10
Align 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.
11
Guide 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.
12
While 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.
13
Connect 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 11-13.
Important!
Ensure that the reset button is readily accessible after installation of the
waste disposer.
