Evergrind
Normal Impeller Swing or Minor Mechanical Play
Disposal emits a metallic clunk at startup and shutdown but otherwise runs normally
Advertisements
Possible Causes
Evergrind impeller lugs swinging into position, Slight play in Evergrind motor shaft, Loose but functional Evergrind mounting components, Thin metal sink amplifying Evergrind noise
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn OFF power before inspection.
- Inspect impellers: With power OFF, gently move the Evergrind impeller lugs to ensure they are secure and not cracked.
- Check mounting tightness: Tighten the Evergrind mounting ring screws to minimize movement.
- Assess sink gauge: Thin sinks may amplify normal Evergrind startup clunks. Adding sound-dampening pads under the sink can help.
- Monitor: If the clunk does not worsen and grinding is normal, this may be acceptable operation.
