1. Loosen nut (A) at top of "P-trap" with pipe wrench (see Figure 2-1).
2. Loosen nut (B) at top of extension pipe. Remove extension pipe.
3. Loosen nut (C) at base of sink flange. (If nut is corroded or too tight, apply
penetrating lubricant,)
4. Push sink flange up through sink hole and remove it (see Figure 2-2).
5. Clean sink flange area of any putty or other debris.
O DISASSEMBLE NEW DISPOSER
MOUNTING ASSEMBLY
1. 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.
2, Turn mounting assembly over (see Figure 3-2) and loosen three mounting
screws (A) until you can access snap ring (B).
3. Use screwdriver to pry snap ring off of sink flange. Mounting assembly will
now come apart.
O INSTALL FLANGE IN SINK HOLE
1. Roll 1/4 pound (4 oz.) of non-hardening plumber's putty to make 3/4" thick rope
to seal around sink flange.
2. Apply putty evenly around sink hole (see Figure 4-1).
3. 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
