Helpful Hints

A. Be sure the disposer is empty before using the

dishwasher so it can drain properly.

B. You may want to leave the stopper in the drain

when not in use to prevent utensils and foreign

objects from falling into the disposer.

C. TO SPEED UP FOOD WASTE DISPOSER... Cut

or break up large bones, melon rinds, grapefruit

skins and corn cobs. Items such as large bones,

fibrous husks like lima bean pods and corn husks

require considerable cutting time. For this reason,
you may prefer to place them in the trash can
D Grind peelings from citrus fr its to freshen up

drain smells
E Use a di poser cleaner or deodorizer as
necessary to relieve objectionable odors caused
by grease build up
F Before turning the disposer off let the water and
the disposer run for at least 15 seconds after
shredding stops This assures that all waste is
thoroughly flushed through the trap and drain

DO

...

DON T

' ...

A Don t be alarmed that the disposer slows down while

grinding. The disposer is actually increasing torque

(grinding power) and is operating under normal

conditions.
B Don t pour grease or fat down your disposer or any drain
It can build up in pipes and cause drain blockages Put
grease in a jar or can and dispose in the trash
C Don t use hot water when grinding food waste It is OK to

drain hot water into the disposer between grinding periods
D Don t put tin cans, bottles and bottle caps, glass, china,
leather, cloth, crockery, rubber,
string, feathers, or clam or oyster shells into your disposer
These are waste materials and belong in the trash can

E Don t fill disposer with a lot of vegetable peels all at once

Instead turn the water and disposer on first and then feed
the peels in gradually
F Don t grind extremely fibrous materials like corn husks
artichokes etc To avoid possible drain blockage
G Don t turn off disposer until grinding is completed and
only sound of motor and water is heard

Care and Maintenance

THE MOTOR IS PERMANENTLY LUBRICATED FOR LIFE. DON T ATTEMPT TO LUBRICATE YOUR
DISPOSER,

'

The disposer is self cleaning and scours itself with each use.

NEVER put lye or chemical cleaners into the disposer, as they cause serious corrosion of metal parts.

Your disposer is equipped with a removable splash guard for ease of cleaning or replacement. Remove

the splash guard by pulling it out from the top. To replace, insert into the sink flange and push down until

it is properly seated.

If an odor develops, run orange or lemon rinds through the disposer. A dozen ice cubes sprinkled with a

little household scouring powder will also work.
