MOUNTING ASSEMBLY
Insert wrenchette (or screwdriver) into one mounting lug and hold lower mount­
ing ring securely with one hand (see Figure 3-1). With your other hand, turn
mounting assembly counterclockwise to remove mounting assembly from lower
mounting ring
Turn mounting assembly over (see Figure 3-2) and loosen three mounting
screws (A) until you can access snap ring (B).
Use screwdriver to pry snap ring off of sink flange. Mounting assembly will
now come apart.

3.
Roll 1/4 pound (4 oz.) of non-hardening plumber’s putty to make 3/4" thick rope
to seal around sink flange.
Apply putty evenly around sink hole (see Figure 4-1).
Press sink flange slowly but firmly into sink drain hole to seat evenly on putty
(see Figure 4-2). Use screwdriver or putty knife to scrape all putty from edge
of sink hole.
Do not use plumber's putty on any other disposer connection - it
may harm disposer and cause property damage.
ATTACH UPPER MOUNTING ASSEMBLY TO SINK FLANGE
You may wish to place a weighted object in the sink to hold the sink flange in place. (Place a towel
under object in sink to prevent scratching ) Reference Figure 5-1 for part identification.
1 Working from under sink, slip fiber gasket and
metal backup ring over sink flange.
2 Holding fiber gasket and backup ring in place,
slip mounting ring over sink flange so it seats
against backup ring
3 With fiber gasket, backup ring, and mounting
ring tight to s,r.!\ boltorr,, slide snap ring onto
sink flange until it pops into groove on flange*.
I Tighten three mounting screws up to sink
until mounting assembly is seated tightly
and evenly against sink.
Placing a thick, wide rubber band around
the sink flange (above the snap ring
groove) may help hold parts in place while
installing snap ring. (Remember to rehiove
rubber band after snap ring is installed.) '
If you are replacing an existing disposer, go to Instruction 6 If this is a first time installation,
