Waste Disposer Installation Manual

 

 

1.5 .

CONNECTION TO ELECTRICAL SUPPLY

 

 

IMPORTANT 
Before connecting your Waste Disposer to the electricity supply, make sure the 
grinder runs freely and there are no foreign objects in the grinding chamber. 

 

The Disposer should be connected to a single phase 220/240V 
power supply, controlled by a switch and should be a safe 
distance from wet areas. We recommend the use of our  
air-switch (Part No: AIR) 

 
 

 

 

 

 

 

1.5.1 

Air-switch 

Product code. AIR

 

The air-switch is a safety device that isolates the user from the 
waste disposer’s electrical components. 

 

 

 

 

1.5.1.1 

Installation of the Air Switch Button 

 
Find a suitable position near the sink for 
the operating button.   
 
Make sure that there is sufficient space 
underneath to turn the securing nut.

 

 

                   Food-Waste-Disposer 

 
Drill a hole, 35mm into the worktop. 

Seal the sides with a thin film of silicone and fix the 
operating button. 

IMPORTANT 

The lower side of the air hose is often difficult 
to reach. 

It is recommended that you connect the air 
hose before you insert the operating element. 

 

 

 

1.5.1.2 

Connection 

Connect the Air Hose to the Air Switch. 
 
Plug the Air Switch into the socket and plug the Waste Disposer into the Electric Switch. 

 

 

 

1.5.2 

Wall Switch 

 
The power outlet where the disposer is plugged in must be switched by a double pole switch. 
 
We recommend the use of a push button so the disposer runs only while the button is 
depressed.
