To Attach a Power Cord:
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS:

This appliance

must be grounded. In the event of malfunction
or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least
resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of
electric shock. The power cord (to be installed)
must have an equipment-grounding conductor and
a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into
an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.

DANGER:

Improper connection of the

equipment-grounding conductor can result in
a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualiﬁ ed
electrician or serviceman if you are in doubt as to
whether the appliance is properly grounded.

NOTE:

Disconnect electric power to disposer circuit before
installation. Turn the circuit breaker to the

OFF

position or remove the fuse.

A. Connect the disposer to 220-240 Volt,

50-60 Hz AC current only.

B. If a plug-in cord is used, use a three-prong plug.

Ground wire should be attached to the ground
screw in the bottom of the disposer (end bell).
