-
Loosen the clamp screw to allow the mounting system to be removed from the unit (fig.2).
|

Fig. 2 Removing the mounting system from the waste disposer |
-
Turn the mounting assembly over and remove the flange ring from the track on the sink flange. Undo the three screws holding it together. This will allow the sink flange, mount ring, and protector ring to separate (fig 3).
Use the flat blade screwdriver as a lever if required.
|

Fig. 3 Disassembling the mounting system |
- Apply a small amount of plumbers putty to the lip of the sink flange and position the sink flange into the sink drain hole ensuring that the rubber gasket on the underside of the sink flange is firmly in place (fig.4).
|

Fig. 4 Fitting the flange into the sink drain hole |
-
Approaching from under the sink, slide the protector ring and mount ring onto the underside of the sink flange. Fit the flange ring into the track on the sink flange, then tighten the 3 mounting screws evenly and securely (fig.5).
 |
Ensure that the mounting assembly connection is fixed securely and tightly.
|
No dishwasher connection required
If a dishwasher is not being connected to the waste disposer, please proceed to step 7.
Connecting to a dishwasher
If you are connecting to a dishwasher, please continue with steps 5 & 6.

|
-
Using a blunt instrument (steel punch or wooden dowel), knock out the entire plug at the end of the dishwasher drain inlet (as shown in fig.6). Do not use a screwdriver or sharp instrument. When the knockout plug falls into disposer, you may remove it or simply grind it up when the disposer is used. This will not damage the disposer in any way, but may take some time to grind, over the course of several uses.
-
Connect the dishwasher drain hose to the dishwasher inlet pipe on the waste disposer (fig. 6). Use a clamp to ensure a tight seal. A stepped rubber adaptor (not supplied with the product) may be required if the diameter of the drain hose is larger than the diameter of the waste disposer’s inlet connection.
|

Fig. 6 Connecting to a dishwasher (if required) |
- Connect the discharge elbow to the lower outlet on the waste disposer (fig. 7).
-
Prior to connecting the waste disposer to the mounting assembly, press firmly down on the rubber splash guard to check that is firmly fitted onto the neck of the hopper.
-
Lubricate the top lip and angled surface of the rubber splash guard with liquid soap or petroleum jelly (fig. 8 ).
 |
Please do not remove clamp and splash guard from hopper. Both parts are factory installed and installation ready.
|

Fig. 8 Lubricate the rubber splash guard
|
- Align the discharge elbow up with the waste pipe (refer to fig.11) so that the waste disposer is correctly positioned, prior to engaging with the mounting assembly.
-
Guide the waste disposer up to the sink flange (fig. 9). Engage the groove of the splash guard around the ridge at the bottom of the sink flange. A slight rocking motion may be required to help ensure a proper fit.
|

Fig. 9 Engage the waste disposer |
- While still supporting the body of the waste disposer, tighten the screw clamp around the rubber splash guard (fig.10). The waste disposer will now hang by itself.
-
Connect the discharge elbow up with the waste pipe (fig.11) and tighten the slip nut on the drain pipe.
 |
If you need to rotate the waste disposer to connect with the waste pipe, it is important to make sure the sink flange does not turn. Movement of the sink flange will break the seal created when installed. If this occurs, disengage the waste disposer from the discharge elbow and mounting assembly Return to step 10 to realign the waste disposer before repeating steps 11-13.
|
 |
Ensure that the reset button is readily accessible after installation of the waste disposer.

Installing the air-switch (optional)
- Select a location on the bench top for the air switch to be positioned (recommended position is near the sink). Mark and cut a hole, 33mm in diameter, in the bench top.
- Remove the nut from the thread of the air switch (fig.12).
- Feed one end of the PVC tubing up through the cutout, from the underside of the bench top, and attach to the underside of the push button.
- Insert the push button into the bench top cut out (fig.12). Feed the PVC tube through the nut. Screw the nut onto the thread tightly (fig.13), securing the push button tightly onto the bench top.
 |
Do not use a wrench to tighten the nut.
|
- Connect the other end of the PVC tubing to the air switch outlet, located on the underside of the waste disposer (fig.14).
