This disposer must be grounded to reduce the risk of electric shock in the event of a
malfunction or breakdown. Grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric
current. This disposer is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor
and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed
and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. WARNING – Improper
connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock.
Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are in doubt as to whether the
disposer is properly grounded. If the plug provided with the disposer does not fit the
outlet, do not modify it.
See insert for specific information about your new disposer
NOTE: This Food Waste Disposer has been designed to operate on 110 Volt, 60 Hz
exclusively. Using any other voltage or Hz adversely affects performance.
IMPORTANT: Read all instructions thoroughly. Keep this guide for future reference.
CAUTION: Be sure to review SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FIRST PERTAINING TO A RISK OF FIRE,
ELECTRICAL SHOCK OR INJURY TO PERSONS before using disposer.

Step 1. Removal of Old Unit
Before starting this step, turn off electrical power at the circuit breaker or fuse box. If your old mount is
the same as the mount on your new disposer, just reverse the assembly instructions found in section 3. If
your new mount system is different, follow these instructions:
A. Use a pipe wrench to disconnect drain line where it attaches to disposer discharge tube (see 1A).
B. Remove disposer from sink flange by turning mount ring to the left clockwise (see 1B). If you are
unable to turn the mount ring, tap on one of the extensions from the ring with a hammer. Some
mounting systems have tubular extensions. Inserting a screwdriver into one tube will provide
additional leverage for turning the mount ring (see 1B). Some disposers may require the removal
or loosening of nuts from the mount screws (see 1C). Some disposers may require the removal of
a clamp.
CAUTION: Be sure to support the disposer while performing this step or it may fall when the
mounting ring is disconnected from the mounting assembly. If your disposer is hard wired (metal
shielded cable not utilizing a wall plug), complete steps C and D. If you utilize a plug-in cord, go
on to step E.
C. When disposer is removed, turn up side down and remove electrical cover plate (see 1D).
D. Use screwdriver to remove green ground wire. Remove wire nuts from black and white power
wires and separate disposer wires from power cable wires. Loosen screws on cable clamp and
separate cable from disposer.
E. To remove remaining mount system from the sink, loosen mount screws, push mount ring up.
Under it is the snap ring. Use screwdriver to pop off ring (see 1E). Remove mount ring, protector
ring and gasket from sink flange. Some mounts will require the unscrewing of a large ring holding
the sink flange in place. Pull sink flange up through sink and clean off old putty from sink.
IMPORTANT: Unless you have a new home, this is a good time to clean out the trap
and drain lines by running a drain auger or plumber’s snake before installing your
new disposer.

If you are utilizing a dishwasher, complete the following procedure. If dishwasher is not to be connected
go on to section 3.
A. Make use of a blunt instrument to knock out the housing cap(see 2A1), please sure to use a steel
punch or wooden dowel but not sharp instrument. Punch the cap with force and remove the fell
off cap(see 2A2). Use the blunt instrument again to knock the plug on the inner body(see 2A3).
Please take out or grind the knockout plug if it falls into the chamber.
B. Connect dishwasher hose using hose clamp. If hose size is different, you will need a Dishwasher
Connector Kit (see 2B). Make sure all plumbing connections are tight and in accordance with all
plumbing codes and ordinances. Run water and check for leaks.

READ COMPLETELY BEFORE STARTING
NOTE: Pay close attention to the order of mount assembly parts, as they have been correctly assembled
by the factory. Also, reference the cushion mount detail in illustration 3D below for the proper
orientation
of the cushion mount.
NOTE: Try practicing this assembly before you get under the sink to get the “feel” of how the parts fit
together.
A. Disassemble mount assembly from disposer by turning mounting ring to the left
(counterclockwise) and remove.
B. Raise mounting ring toward top of sink flange. Remove mounting seal ring. Remove mounting
ring. You may want to practice installing the mounting seal ring at this point before you are under
the sink. See paragraph H. Also see the “Important Notice: Mounting Seal Ring Detail.”
C. Unscrew mounting nut from sink flange and remove fiber washer. You are now left with sink
flange and rubber washer.
D. The rubber washer is used instead of plumbers putty with stainless steel sinks. Other sinks will
require putty.
E. If no putty is used, insert sink flange through rubber washer into sink opening. Do not rotate sink
flange once it is seated.
F. If you use putty instead of the washer, form a ring around underside of sink flange. Insert flange
into sink opening, press down hard to squeeze out excess putty. From under sink, trim off excess
putty flush with bottom edge of sink opening.
G. From underneath sink, slip fiber washer onto exposed sink flange. With arrows pointing up, screw
mounting nut onto the sink flange, hand tighten until the sink flange will not move (see 3A).
Tighten mounting screws. At this point you may want to insert stopper in sink and fill with water to
check sink flange seal and insure there are no leaks.
H. Place mounting ring over sink flange and hold in place while installing mounting seal ring (large
side down) so the groove on the inside of mounting seal ring fits over lip on sink flange, similar to
putting the lid on a plastic container (see 3B, 3C & 3D). Please read important notice below.
Important Notice: Mounting Seal Ring Detail
When the mounting seal ring is installed correctly, the lip of the sink flange fits into the groove on the
inside of the mounting seal ring and mounting ring can be pulled downward over mounting seal ring
and will be free to rotate. The bottom bead of the mounting seal ring acts as a gasket between the
bottom of the sink flange and the top of the disposer. See illustration 3D.
