- 1). Roll a piece of plumber's putty in your hands until you have a rope approximately the same width as your little finger.
- 2). Hold the sink flange upside down and wrap the putty rope around the opening. Lower the flange into the sink's hole and press it firmly in place.
- 3). Hold the mounting ring over the garbage disposal's opening. Line up the tabs on the garbage disposal with the spaces in the mounting ring. Push the mounting ring firmly onto the garbage disposal and twist it clockwise to secure it in place.
- 4). Line up the mounting ring with the sink flange, from underneath the sink. Hold the flange down while you slip the mounting ring onto it. Turn the garbage disposal slightly until the mounting ring and sink flange rest tightly together.
- 5). Tighten the mounting ring's screws with a phillips screwdriver to secure the garbage disposal in place. Wipe away the extra plumber's putty that oozed out from underneath the sink flange, using a paper towel. If you ever need to remove your garbage disposal from underneath the sink, the EZ Mount system allows you to simply twist the disposal until the tabs line up with the mounting ring's openings and then lower the disposal.
