REMOVING YOUR OLD DISPOSER,

FIRST, TURN OFF ELECTRICAL POWER at the service panel (fuse box or circuit breaker box). If the mounting
is the same as your new disposer's mounting, you can use the existing mounting. Follow instructions A through E,

Step 2, then go on to Step 10.

Screw

Use a pipe wrench to disconnect
the drain line where it attaches to

the disposer discharge tube.

Wire Nuts

Now, use a screwdriver to
remove ground wire. Remove the
wire nuts from the power wires.
Separate the disposer power

wires from the cable wires.

Loosen the screw(s) on the cable
clamp and remove the cable from

the disposer.

Ifyour old disposer has adifferent
mounting than your new one,
follow steps F and G. Otherwise

go on to Step 3.

tF YOUR OLD DISPOSER HAS A
DIFFERENT MOUNTING THAN

YOUR NEW ONE, GO ON TO IN-
STRUCTION C.

If your old disposer has the same
mounting as your new one, insert
the end of your "wrenchette" or
screwdriver into the right side of

one of the disposer mounting ring
lugs at the top of the disposer.
Then, turn the "wrenchette" or

screwdriver to the left (counter-
clockwise) until the lug lines up
with one of the sink mounting

assembly screws.
CAUTION: Be sure to hold the

disposer with one hand while per-
forming this step or it may fall
when the mounting ring is dis-

connected from the sink mount-
ing assembly. GO TO INSTRUC-

TION D.

Ifyour old disposer has adifferent
mounting than your new one, use
a pliers or adjustable wrench to
remove the nuts on the mounting
ring. Then remove old disposer.
(Some disposers have to be
removed by taking off a clamp or
by twisting the disposer to
remove it from its mounting. Easy
to figure out.)

i

Loosen screws and remove old

mounting ring and back-up ring.
You may need ahammer to loosen

assembly parts.

Once the disposer is off, turn it
upside down and remove the
electrical plate.

Finally, remove the old sink
sleeve by pushing it up through
the sink hole.

DRAIN LINE.
CLEANING YOUR SINK'S

NOTE: In case of new construction, you may skip this step.
The cutting elements on your old disposer were probably

worn and not grinding the waste completely. Your drain line
may be partially blocked, We recommend cleaning the line

before connecting your new Kenmore disposer.
You can do the job yourself with a drain auger. Remove the

drain trap and, using the auger, clean out the horizontal drain

pipe that runs from the trap to the main waste pipe.
