Garbage Disposal part 2

Your back, good, Okay get a bucket, a five gal. works great. Remove all the cleaning stuff from underneath the sink, It might get wet. We need to drain it. Again, UNPLUG IT. Take a photo 1st. Put the bucket under disposal. Remove the 2 hoses on the side, ( see photo #1)
one is a "grasp" type (open this w/channel locks) or the kind that looks like it goes on your car radiator, this one has a screw. The other is attached to the pipe from your sink.
it's threaded, unscrew it by hand, If it's not plastic, get a (monkey) plumbers wrench and Teflon tape. Use the tape to wrap around threads. There is another plastic pipe inside this one, except on non-plastic. Take the other 2 fittings that go to the other sink and loosen them also, (while it's loose check the trap and clean it). Don't forget where everything goes, see your photo. Now take off the 2 screws that hold the metal plate on. Keep the screws, (You will now experience water) Take the hex key and near the top where the disposer meets the silver ring at the top, you'll see 3 slots, (like 3 small openings, See photo #2)
this is where the key will fit. Put the "s" part in the the opening and turn a bit counter-clockwise. This should loosen the disposer, unless your in Europe, it might be clockwise than. Watch for the rest of the water, smell and %^&*#@$. Slowly lower it into the bucket. It should be drained now. Wipe up any mess and get the new one. Now is the tricky part, you need to hold it up while you get the ring to catch, be patient! Make sure it all catches. Give it a turn to hold it. now get the key again and tighten it, don't get crazy from the anger after trying to get it to catch. give it a little wiggle, is it tight? A good turn or so should do it. It's now tight. Reconnect the hoses in the reverse order from before. Don't plug it in! If all went well, your ready for the water test. Run some water to check for leaks, (get the bucket) better safe! no leaks? Perfect! Plug it in, Turn on water, then disposer and don't throw onion peels down there anymore! Throw away the old one, nobody wants it anyway. I don't know why they call it a disposal, you really can't put anything down it w/o worrying it will get stuck. Occasionally throw a lemon, lime peel down there (sink) to freshen it. If this is too much work or to tough call the pro! Time for a shower! See Ya'
