Step 14
The drain saddle must be mounted at least 1 ½” above the nut of the
P-trap or cross bar from the garbage disposal to insure proper drainage.
Assemble the drain saddle around the drain pipe at the best available
location. Using Phillips screw driver tighten screws evenly and securely
on both sides of the drain saddle. Keep the plastic compression nut off
at this time.
The small square black foam gasket with a circle cut out of the middle
must be applied to the inside of the drain saddle. Remove sticky tape
backing and stick to the drain saddle as shown.
1 Black compression nut
1 Semicircle bracket with opening
2 Screws
1 Foam gasket
2 Nuts for screws
1 Semicircle bracket
Gather the pieces of the drain saddle:
Caution: Do not over tighten the screws. It may crack the drain saddle.
If you have a garbage disposal, do not install the drain saddle near it.
Installation of the drain saddle must be either above the garbage disposal, or
if a second sink drain is available, install it above the cross bar on the second
drain. Installation of the drain saddle near a garbage disposal may cause
the drain line to plug. If no other installation of drain line is available, Watts
Premier offers drain line installation kit (part number 164020) that can be used
with garbage disposals.
