Attaching Discharge Elbow/ Connecting Disposer
To Mount Assembly
1.
Install the provided discharge elbow/gasket assembly (these are pre-assembled
at the factory) and flange as shown in "A". Install and tighten two screws evenly
with a screw driver. DO NOT RE-USE THE EXISTING DISCHARGE ELBOW AND
GASKET AS THE GASKET MAY NOT SEAL PROPERLY. USE THE NEW
ELBOW, GASKET, FLANGE AND SCREWS PROVIDED.
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN!
IMPORTANT: Do not remove the gasket and place it on the disposer between
the elbow and disposer. It must stay on the elbow to make a proper seal.
2.
Before connecting the disposer to the mounting assembly under the sink,
check that the lower mounting ring is in place on the top of the disposer, and
that the hush cushion is engaged securely around the top lip of the disposer (see
B).
3.
Align the discharge elbow with the drain connection and hang the disposer
by aligning the 3 mounting tabs on the lower mounting ring with the slide-up
ramp on the mounting ring (see C).
4.
Turn the lower mounting ring until all 3 mounting tabs lock over the ribs at
the top of the ramp (see D). If you are unable to turn the mount ring by hand,
insert a screw driver through one of the tubes on the lower mounting ring to
provide extra leverage to turn it.
5.
Use a pipe wrench to reconnect the discharge elbow to the drain line (see E).
(the reversal of page 3, step B) Use a pipe wrench to secure the drain line
where it attaches to disposer discharge tube. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN (see E).
6.
If you are connecting to a dishwasher, go to "Dishwasher Connection" on page 5.
If not, remove any tools, packaging or materials used for installation from
the sink. Make sure all plumbing connections are tight and in accordance
with all plumbing codes and ordinances (If in doubt, contact a qualified
plumber). Run water and check for leaks (see Leaks on page 10). Then go to
page 8 for the electrical connection.
NOTE: Read Operating Instructions at the end of installation.
