PREPARE DISHWASHER DRAIN CONNECTION (IF APPLICABLE)
The knockout drain plug should only be removed if you are connecting a built-in
dishwasher to the disposer. NOTE: If the dishwasher connection is made without
removing the plug, the dishwasher may overflow. (Connections must comply with local
plumbing codes.)

If your dishwasher drain hose is 7/8 inch (2.2 cm) ID diameter, go to Instruction 9. If
your dishwasher drain hose is not 7/8 inch (2.2 cm ) ID diameter, you must attach a
dishwasher drain connector to the dishwasher drain inlet. Follow the installation
instructions with the connection kit. (You will connect the dishwasher drain hose to the

Ensure the following electrical requirements are met before connecting disposer to switch (see Figure 9-1 for typical direct wired
electrical circuit diagram):
•Remove fuse (or open the circuit breaker) before connecting disposer to circuit.
•If junction box is used, connect the junction box to the switch on a separate 15 Amp, 120 Volt AC circuit with the appropriate cable.
(Use 14 gauge wire with 15 Amp circuit).
•If you install a double receptacle to handle other small kitchen appliances, include a wall switch in disposer receptacle circuit and
wire other receptacle directly to power source.
•This disposer requires a switch with a marked "Off" position (wired to disconnect all ungrounded supply conductors) installed within
sight of the disposer sink opening (1 HP minimum rating).

Follow these instructions to direct wire the disposer.
1. Remove electrical cover plate from bottom of disposer and pull out
black and white wires (see Figure 9-1). DO NOT REMOVE
CARDBOARD INSULATION SHIELD.
2. Run electrical cable through access hole (A) on bottom of disposer
(with 1/2 inch [1.3 cm] conduit or 3/8 inch [0.9 cm] flex) and secure
with clamp connector.
3. Strip wires back approximately 1/2 inch (1.3 cm). Connect white
(neutral) electrical wire to white disposer wire, and black (hot) electrical
wire to black disposer wire (may have colored stripe) with wire nuts
(see Figure 9-1). Insulate wire connections with electrical tape, and
push connections into disposer housing without displacing cardboard
insulation shield. Do not reinstall electrical plate until disposer is
properly grounded.
Once the circuit you are using is grounded at the service panel, attach
the ground wire to the green ground screw (B) in the electrical cover
plate opening and secure the electrical plate (C) (see Figure 9-1).

This appliance must be connected to a grounded, metal, permanent wiring system; or an equipment-grounding conductor must be
run with the circuit conductors and connected to the equipment-grounding terminal or lead on the appliance.
WARNING
Electric Shock
•Disconnect electrical power at fuse box or circuit breaker before
installing or servicing disposer. Failure to do so can result in
death or electrical shock.
