Helpful Hints
A. Be sure the disposer is empty before
using the dishwasher so it can drain
properly.
B. You may want to leave the stopper in
the drain when not in use to prevent
utensils and foreign objects from falling
into the disposer.
C. The disposer is ruggedly built to give
you years and years of trouble-free
service. It will handle all normal food
wastes–BUT it will not grind and
dispose such items as tin cans, bottles
and bottle caps, glass, china, leather,
cloth, crockery, rubber, string, feathers,
or clam or oyster shells. These are
waste materials and belong in the
trash can or trash compactor.
THE MOTOR IS PERMANENTLY LUBRICATED FOR LIFE. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO
LUBRICATE YOUR DISPOSER. The disposer is self cleaning and scours itself with
each use.

NEVER put lye or chemical cleaners
into the disposer, as they cause serious
corrosion of metal parts.

Your disposer, except for the Batch
Feed model, is equipped with a
removable splash guard for ease of
cleaning or replacement. Remove the
splash guard by pulling it out from the
top. To replace, insert into the sink
flange and push down until it is
properly seated.

If an odor develops, run orange or
lemon rinds through the disposer. A
dozen ice cubes sprinkled with a little
household scouring powder will also
work.
D. TO SPEED UP FOOD WASTE
DISPOSAL... Cut or break up
large bones, melon rinds, grapefruit
skins and corn cobs. Items such as
large bones, fibrous husks like lima
bean pods and corn husks require
considerable cutting time. For this
reason, you may prefer to place them
in the trash can or trash compactor.
