pressure from system before proceeding.

mallet or use a board as a lever.
3. Remove strainer basket and clean. Ensure all holes in basket are clear, fl ush basket
with water and replace in trap with large opening at pipe connection port (between
ribs provided). If basket is replaced backwards, the cover will not fit on trap body.
To clean tranparent cover, use water and neutral soap only. Do not use solvents.
