Installation Instructions
KNOCK OUT PLUG
Using a blunt instrument (steel punch or 
wooden dowel), knock out entire plug. Do not use
a screwdriver or sharp instrument. When 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.
DISHWASHER CONNECTION (IF REQUIRED)
If you are connecting to a dishwasher, complete the
following step. If a dishwasher is not to be connected,
go on to “Attaching the Discharge Elbow” section.
