I pulled unit out of box. Now, how do I seperate the Sink Flange , Rings and Gasket from the top of Unit ? Can't pull out. Do I need liquid soap ?

loosing the screw that hold the unit to the flange. Pull it right down.... push it back in during install

I put the casters on it. So, I can just roll it to the sink and use the pull-up faucet head to fill it. You don't really have to lift the whole top off..just the front grille. It's actually a bit hard to re-seat the automatic turn-off float if there is water in the unit., because it's floating So just lift off the front grille.

unscrew the spray unit first. then slide the flexible hose down the faucet step so it comes out under the sink. take off the spring and put on the new one. Then feed the flex hose up thru the faucet stem and attach the spray unit. (Or, you can unhook the other end of the hose under the sink if easier.) good luck. I am no plumber

I bought an insinkerator with my new blanco sink. I did not use the flange that is included in the disposal. I chose to use Blanco 3-in 1 for aesthetic reason. This includes a cover for the basket strainer.

Turn off house water. Open faucet downstairs to remove pressure. Take out screws on cover then remove screws holding cartridge cover on. pulls right out. grease new with plumbers grease(silicone) and slide in. reverse order. several of these look similar. if its loose in housing or won't fit, don't force. get proper part.

Weird. Is the hot water valve all the way open after installation? Do you have good pressure with cold water? If not is something under the sink pinching the hose? Never heard of anything like this. BTW I'm just a consumer not a plumber.

http://www.appliancepartspros.com/upper-rack-track-parts-for-kitchenaid-kuds30ixwh1.html Open the link showing a diagram of your top rack. Part number 2 is the part you are looking at on Amazon. Remove rack from dishwasher (there is a retainer at the end of each drawer track that needs to be either removed or opened and the tray will slide out). Carefully unclip Part #11 from the rack and slide down ward until it will unclip from the rack adjuster. Mine were very brittle from age and I snapped one off. Remove second retaining clip part #12. Hard to explain how to do this, but it is not difficult. Release the middle of it, slide it upward and and it will come off. Remove the last retainer, part #9. I used a small screw driver to assist in releasing it. Next use a small screw driver to pry apart parts 8 & 10. The top part is tabbed and the bottom part snaps together so I gently pried it apart from the bottom sides (there was a small notch i could easily get into). The rack adjuster will now slide off. Do one at a time and use the other as a reference. Assembly is the reverse. Take you time - shouldn't take over 45-60 minutes. First side takes the longest, after you do one the other is easy. Hope this helps.

I was able to un-jam mine, but kept the new one I bought. There isn't one of the "typical" allen wrench "unjamming" features. However, as I recall I pulled it out and by putting my hand in and trying to rotate the "innards" was able to find the offending piece of metal wedged along the outer circumference and get it out. Then it was fine - and I reinstalled it. Try that first before ordering new. These are smaller than typical units - in my case the sink is smaller so this unit takes up less cabinet space underneath. If you have to replace it, I'd suggest getting the same unit and not getting one of the larger units you find at Home Depot etc. Hope that helped!

Kevin, where the hoses go into the unit, press the the top of the opening (plastic ring) against the unit and pull out the hose. It's really easy. I had the same headache too. Don't even need a tool. Clay.

If there is not already one there - yes. I just took out a soap dispenser that was mounted to my sink. If you must cut a hole I would do some homework first. Your sink is likely made of stainless steel, so make sure you have the appropriate tool.

Albert: I'm not sure what it is you want to know. The entire thing is a kit....there's nothing to know other then reading the instructions and inserting this into that. It fits a standard (I'm going out on a limb here and saying 3/8" compression fitting) supply line under your sink. If you have something other than what is considered U.S. standard, then you would need to retrofit it with either up-sizing or down-sizing adapters available at good hardware stores. Hope this helps Bil

Yes, there is a plastic tube which runs from the base of the pump mechanism down into the container which holds the liquid soap. I've had no problem with this unit and use it daily. If the plastic tube were to become disconnected, I suppose you could remove the pump from the sink and re-install the tube.

ok, thanks for responses! Bought 2 units for 2 sinks and neither package has directions, and plastic washers/seals, not rubber. That was my confusion. Looked at drains at Home Depot and they all had rubber seals. Apparently thinks were changed. Thanks.

I had the same problem. What I do now..fill the blue bowl (I know, obvious) then place it somewhere firm, like on the counter. Put the bottom and tighten it just till it makes contact, do not over tighten, I use one finger to screw it on. Then press down around the edges of the bottom piece firmly so it slides on and then tighten the rest of the way. But again, do not over tighten, turn just till it makes contact. Hold it over the sink to be sure it does not leak. It will come off almost as easily.Had mine for almost 2 years now and no problems.

neither, you just lift the lid after you have turned off the unit and fill from the top with your own kind of soap. Any liquid soap will work. We love ours.

Faucet, handle, sprayer and all fittings. Depending on what's under your sink, you might need the connection hoses or waterline shut offs (I needed both of those, but only because my original faucet was over 30 years old and plumbed directly into the water line). But as far as what's needed for the faucet, everything you need is in the box. Just as a heads-up...all of the connections are plastic fittings fittings with rubber seals and spring clips. Again, it's a cheap faucet but I think it's a good value for what you pay. The alternatives are much more expensive. I'll know more once it's got some age in it but I have no leaks and it didn't take very long to install (once I had the water shut offs installed). Also, keep in mind that if you have to hook anything else up (diswasher, disposal, etc.), you might need additional fittings but they don't have anything to do with your faucet. This is for a 3 hole installation and there is no footplate for the faucet. It mounts directly on the sink. If you have a 4 hole sink, you can still find a soap dispenser to use to fill the fourth hole.

It's highly recommended that you replace the old ring with the new one that comes with it. They are similar, but different. The old one will likely work fine, but the new one will work better. If you happen to have a thick sink like cast iron, fiber glass or stone composite, then you will likely have no choice but to change it since the mounting screws will be too low. The new ring will come with shorter mounting screws as an option for the thicker sinks.
