3. Overflow/Appliance Connections

4B

For overflow or dishwasher connection complete the following procedure.  

Alternatively go to step 4.

A. Using a blunt instrument (steel punch or wooden dowel), knock out entire

plug (see 3A). Do not use a screwdriver or sharp instrument.  When 

knockout plug falls into disposer, you may remove it or simply grind it up 

when the disposer is used.  This will not damage the disposer in any way,

but may take some time to grind, over the course of several uses.

B. Connect overflow or hose using hose clamp.  If hose size is different, you 

will need a stepped rubber adaptor.

connect bottom of elbow by tightening slip nut.

B.

Make sure all plumbing connections are tight (see 4B).

5. Connecting disposer to mount assembly

3-BOLT MOUNT (See section 3 for your mount type.)

A.

Press firmly around the Hush Cushion® to ensure 

it is engaged with the neck of the disposer.  

B.

Lubricate the top inside lip of the rubber Hush 

Cushion® with a liquid soap.

C.

Line up discharge elbow of disposer with trap 

under mounting assembly. Guide disposer up and 

engage the groove of the Hush Cushion® around 

the ridge at the bottom of the sink flange (see 5A 

& refer back to 1B). While still supporting the               

disposer, tighten the screw-clamp around Hush 

Cushion®. The disposer will now hang by itself.

D.

If you need to turn the disposer make sure the 

sink flange does not turn. It will break the seal

created when installed. Go back to steps 5A and 5B.

IMPORTANT – PLEASE READ

Do not remove clamp from

Hush Cushion® or Hush

Cushion® from hopper. Both

parts are factory installed and

installation ready.

Lubricate top angled surface of rubber Hush Cushion®

with liquid soap prior to engaging disposer to sink flange.

Fit Hush Cushion® lip into sink flange groove using a slight

rocking motion. Tighten clamp (see 5B).
