WHAT YOU WILL NEED

-6-
Pay close attention to the order of the sink flange
parts, as they have been correctly assembled by the
factory.
A. Disassemble the sink flange assembly from the
disposer by turning the mount ring to the left (clockwise)
and removing it.
B. Raise the mount ring toward the top of the sink flange.
Remove the cushion mount and the mount ring. You may
want to practice installing the cushion mount at this point
before you are u nder the sink.
C. Unscrew the support ring from the sink flange and
remove the fiber gasket. You are now left with the sink
flange and the rubber gasket.
E. If no putty is used, insert the sink flange through the
rubber gasket into the sink opening. Do not turn the
flange once it is seated.
F. If you use putty instead of the gasket, form a ring
around the underside of the sink flange. Insert the flange
into the sink opening, press down hard to squeeze out
excess putty. From under the sink, trim off excess putty
flush with the bottom edge of the sink opening.
G.From underneath the sink, slip the fiber gasket onto
the exposed sink flange . With arrows pointing up, screw
the support ring onto the sink
flange and hand tighten until
the sink flange will not move.
At this point you may want to
insert the stopper in the sink
and fill with water to check
the sink flange seal and insure there are no leaks.
H.Place the mount ring over the sink flange and hold in
place while installing the cushion mount (large side
down). Make sure the groove on the inside of the cushion
mount f its over the lip on the
sink flange, similar to putting
the on a plastic container Run
your fingers around the entire
cushion mount with slight
pressure. Do not press too
hard. When the cushion
mount i s properly seated,
the mount ring can be
pulled downward over the
cushion mount and will be
free to turn.
NOTE:
D. The rubber gasket is used instead of plumbers
putty with stainless steel sinks. Some cast sinks will
require putty.

Operating Instructions
This disposer uses anti-jam swivel impellers that make a clicking sound as they swing into place. This
indicates normal operation.
Operating Instructions
. Remove the sink stopper and turn on a medium flow of cold water.
. Turn on the wall swith
. Slowly insert food waste into disposer and position stopper to minimize possible ejection of material while
grinding
4 After grinding is complete turn disposer off and run water for at least 15 seconds to flush drain line

Helpful Hints
A. Be sure the disposer is empty before us ing 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... DONT' ...
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 an d 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 p ut tin cans, bo ttles 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 withalot of vegetable peels all at once
Instead turn the water and disposer on first and then feed
the peels in gradually
F Don t g rind 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 theycause serious corrosion of metal parts.
Your disposer is equipped witharemovable 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 witha
little household scouring powder will also work.

Troubleshooting tips
Before you call for service ...
Troubleshooting Tips
Save time and money Review the chart on this page first and you may not need to call for service
!.
SAFETYNOTE:,.Before investigating you must disconnect the power supply
WARNING!
Before resetting, disconnect the power supply-please see SAFETY NOTE above. The overloadcontrol prevents
the motor from operating should overloading occur. This feature protects your house wiring and your disposer.
When overloaded, the motor will stop auto matically.
Problem Possible Causes What To Do
If the leak is at the top, it may be
caused by
l. lmproper seating of sink
flange (gasketchoice, putty or
tightening).
2. Support ring not tightened
properly
3. Defective cushion mount.
If the leak is at the discharge
elbow leak may be caused by
improper tightening of elbow
flange screws

.
Disposer leaks
Disposer does not start Reset button has been tripped. With the splash guard removed, check to see if
the turntable will move freely using a broom
handle. If the turntable moves freely, replace the
splash guard and check the reset button to see if
it has been tripped. The reset button is red and
located opposite the discharge elbow, near the
bottom of the disposer. Push the button in until
it clicks and remains depressed. If the reset
button has not been tripped, check for a shorted
or broken wire connecting to the disposer.
Check the electrical power switch, fuse boxor
circuit breaker. If wiring and electrical
components are intact, the unit may have
internal problems that require service or
replacement.
Turntable cannot rotate. If the turntable does not turn freely, check for an
object lodged between the turntable and the
grind ring. Dislodge the object by moving the
turntable with a broom handle. Then remove the
object. If no foreign object is present, there may
be internal problems.
