flow.) Remember to turn the water on first, and
then the disposer to avoid a possible drain block-
age. After grinding is complete, the disposer and
water may beturned off.
Depending upon your particular installation, it may
be necessary to allow a water flush after grinding
to completely clear the horizontal drain line. The
water flow time after grinding will depend on the
quantity of food waste that was ground, and the
length of the horizontal drain line. Ground food
waste and water flow at an approximate rate of 2
seconds per foot in a properly pitched horizontal
drain pipe.

ing sink of dish water. Some detergents are
caustic; flushing will pass such material into the
drain line without disposer damage.
DON'T use hot water when grinding food waste,
However, hot water can be drained into the
disposer between gdnding periods
DON'T turn off motor or water until grinding is
completed and only a motor and water sound is
heard.
DON'T become alarmed if a brown discoloration
appears on the face of the grinding disc. This is
normal. It isa surface discoloration only and will
not affect thelife or performance of the disposer,
DON'T grind extremely fibrous material like corn
husks, artichokes, etc. to avoid possible drain
blockaae.

WARNING
- USE THE STOPPERS IN THE DRAIN/GRIND
POSITION WHILE GRINDING TO MINIMIZE
POSSIBLE EJECTION OF MATERIAL.
Stoppers are In drain/grind position.
If you should encounter an objectionable odor
coming from your disposer, it may be the water
itself, which insome areas develops a slightodor
at times. Or it may be coming from bits of food
waste left inside the disposer, because the unit
was turned off before the grind cycle was com-
pleled or not enough water was used. Try this
remedy, after all remaining food waste is dis-
posed of inside the unit:
Heat a large pan of water (approximately 3 to 4
quarts). To this add one-half cup of baking soda.
Mix in thoroughly so it is completely dissolved.
When water reaches approximate boiling point,
tum disposer on and pour heated mixture into
sink. This hot, swirling, treated water will then
flush the inside of the disposer housing.
