CLEANING YOUR SINK'S
DRAIN LINE.
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.
