Remove nuts and fittings along the drain pipe from the bottom of the kitchen sink drain by unscrewing the retaining nut. You may have to remove the p-trap or any other pipes to remove the sink strainer. • * Sometimes the Drain nut or Lock Nut gets frozen stuck and will not budge even after using a wrench. In such a situation, you might need to cut the nut itself* • Before applying new plumbers putty or sealant, you must clean the sinkhole thoroughly. Cleaning the sink hole properly is very important so that the putty can form a good bond. Once the cleaning is complete, dry it well. • Roll out a piece of putty about the thickness of a dime. If you find the putty hard and difficult to roll out, warm your hands to soften it so it's like playdoh. Usually, a new Kitchen Sink Strainer comes with all necessary parts in an organized way. Detach the screws, gaskets, and other parts carefully noting the order these parts were assembled. Later it’ll be easier to assemble them in the same manner. Apply putty to the bottom part of the basket edge. Now set the basket strainer into the sink for alignment before you put any pressure to squeeze the basket down into the sink drain. Don’t push it too hard. • Now return to the bottom side of the sink and start assembling all the parts. Carefully place the cardboard friction ring between the rubber washer and locknut. Then screw the locknut in place by hand first until tight As you tighten the locknut you will see excess putty squeezing out. Use a tool or pliers wrench to get everything firmly together, but not over tight. • Reattach the drainpipe and inspect all pipe fittings. Reattach it first loosely at all points and then tighten properly. And if you feel your drainpipe is damaged or problematic consider replacing the drain pipe under the kitchen sink. Check for leaks around all areas and even places you did not disturb such as that P-trap, garbage disposal, and definitely where the new strainer drain meets the bottom of the sink. Make sure there is no water leak at the rubber gasket. If your rubber gasket is not positioned in the center work it back to the center, • No leaks and the NEW Kitchen Sink Strainer is ready to use. Replacing the Kitchen Sink Strainer is an easy and simple task done in just a few minutes to under one hour. If you follow these steps hopefully won’t face any unwanted hassle.
