Step 6. Connecting Disposer to Mount Assembly

EZ Mount

A.

Line up disposer under mounting assembly. Guide hopper projections into mounting ring slots.

          Turn mounting ring about 1/4”± to right so that disposer is temporarily supported (see 6A).

B.

Turn mounting ring and disposer until drain elbow lines up with trap (see 6B).

C.

Turn mounting ring to the right (clockwise) until it locks up tight. Tap the mounting ring ears

          with a hammer until the lock position is achieved. Hopper projections must be to extreme left of
          mounting slots (see 6C).

D.

If mounting ring is hard to turn, you may add a small amount of petroleum jelly or liquid soap to

          hopper projections. Run water and check for leaks.

Step 7. Operating Instructions

The Anti-Jam Swivel Impellers make a clicking sound as they swing into place. This indicates normal
operation.

A.

Remove sink stopper. Turn on a medium flow of cold water.

B.

Turn switch to ON position; your motor is turning at full speed and ready to use.

C.

Scrape in food waste. Down the drain go table scraps, peelings, rinds, seeds, pits, small bones and

          coffee grounds. To speed up food waste disposal, cut or break up large bones, rinds and cobs.
          Large bones and fibrous husks require considerable grinding time and are more easily thrown
          away with other trash. Do not be alarmed that the disposer slows down while grinding. The
          disposer is actually increasing torque (grinding power) and is operating under normal conditions.

D.

Before turning disposer off, let water and disposer run for approximately 15 seconds after

          shredding stops. This assures that all waste is thoroughly flushed through trap and drain.

E.

It is not recommended to use hot water while

          running disposer. Cold water will keep waste and
          fats solid so disposer can flush away particles.
