How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety First: Turn OFF the disposal before tightening any hardware.
- Step 1 – Check snap ring: Under the sink, verify that the snap ring is fully seated in the groove on the sink flange.
- Step 2 – Tighten mounting ring: Rotate the mounting ring clockwise until all three mounting lugs are firmly locked into place.
- Step 3 – Verify flange seal: Ensure the sink flange is tight against the sink and not rocking. Reseal with plumber’s putty if necessary.
- Step 4 – Test stability: Run the disposal with water and confirm that the unit remains stable.
