Astracast disposal runs but water splashes excessively out of the sink opening during use.

Safety First: Turn OFF the disposal before handling the splash guard.

• Step 1 – Inspect splash guard: Check if the Astracast rubber splash guard is present and seated properly in the sink flange.
• Step 2 – Replace if damaged: If the guard is torn, hardened, or missing, install a new Astracast-compatible splash guard.
• Step 3 – Adjust water flow: Reduce tap flow slightly during operation to minimize splashing.
• Step 4 – Verify fit: Ensure the new guard fits snugly and the slits are not overly wide.

Warning: Do not operate the disposal without a splash guard; it increases risk of injury from flying debris.
