Installation instructions
Installing the waste disposer
1
Loosen the clamp screw to allow the mounting system to be
removed from the unit (fig.2).
2
Turn 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.
3
Apply 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).
4
Approaching 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.
5
Using 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.
6
Connect 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.
