Garbage disposal vibrates excessively and shakes the sink or countertop

Safety first: Turn OFF and unplug the disposal before inspecting.

• Check mounting assembly: Grasp the disposal body and try to move it. If it wobbles at the sink connection, tighten the three mounting screws on the Everbilt mounting ring evenly.
• Inspect impellers: Remove the splash guard and look inside. Ensure both impeller lugs swing freely. Use a screwdriver to gently move them if stuck (power OFF).
• Remove debris: Use tongs to remove any debris stuck on one side of the grinding plate or shredder ring.
• Test with water: Restore power, run cold water, and briefly turn the unit ON. Mild vibration is normal; strong shaking indicates internal imbalance.
• If severe vibration continues: The impeller plate may be bent. Replace the Everbilt disposal to prevent damage to the sink and plumbing.
