Product Usage Instructions

1. Remove the disposal ell and J-bend from the disposal and trap. Use a bowl to catch the trap water. (See Fig. 1)
2. Cut the new flanged tailpiece (provided) leaving approximately 1-1/2 to 2 inches from the flange. Position it between the disposal and disposal tee (provided) so that the tailpiece of the tee lines up and inserts into the J-bend of a trap. It may be necessary to rotate the disposal and J-bend to gain the required distance. Loosen the disposal locking ring, turn the disposal as desired, then tighten. (See Figs. 2a, 2b, and 2c)
3. Reuse the rubber gasket from the disposal ell by mounting it on the flange of the new tailpiece. (See Fig. 2b)
4. Insert the new drain line adapter with a push-in connector (provided) into the top of the disposal tee until it firmly seats on the bottom of the socket. Secure it gently with a slip-joint washer and wing nut (provided). (See Fig. 3)
5. Mount the gasket end of the cut tailpiece to the disposal in the reverse order that the disposal ell was removed. Then, securely install the side outlet of the disposal tee onto the cut end of the tailpiece with an S.J. washer and wing nut (provided). (See Fig. 2c)
6. Replace the J-bend by sliding it onto the trap and tailpiece of the disposal tee simultaneously. Secure it tightly by reusing the original S.J nuts and washer. (See Fig. 2c and 4)
7. Rotate the push-in connector towards the incoming reject water drain tubing and secure it tightly with a wing nut. (See Fig. 4)
8. Insert the drain tubing into the push-in connector to complete the installation. Ensure that the tubing is pushed straight past the O-ring to the bottom. If necessary, use a plastic tubing cutter or a sharp razor knife to cut the tubing. The locking collet should be applied to secure the tube in position, and the locking clip should be removed to release the tube if needed. (See Fig. 5a, 5b, and 5c)

Important: Ensure that the push-in connector has no surface nicks or scratches and is round. Use a plastic tubing cutter or a sharp razor knife if necessary to ensure a clean cut.
Caution: Be careful not to overtighten any nuts on plastic fittings.
Note: Drain saddle fittings are prohibited in the United States. The ET109-001 is designed to be used downstream of an approved air gap.

LIST OF PARTS ENCLOSED

• The ET109-001 converts the plumbing of a single sink/disposal installation to receive the reject water from an under-counter reverse osmosis appliance.
• To install the ET109-001 reverse osmosis reject water Drain Line Adapter, follow these instructions.

CONFIGURATION

1. Remove disposal ell and J-bend from disposal and trap. Use a bowl to catch trap water. (See Fig. 1)

2. Cut new flanged tailpiece (provided) leaving approximately 1-1/2 to 2 inches from the flange, so that when positioned between disposal and disposal tee (provided), the tailpiece of the tee will line up and insert into the J-bend of a trap. (See Figs. 2a & 2c)
   Always ensure that tube ends are cut squarely and inserted into the bottom of all slip joint sockets.
   NOTE: in some cases, it may be necessary to rotate the disposal and J-bend to gain the distance required to line up the new disposal tee. To do this, loosen the disposal locking ring, turn disposal as desired, then tighten.

3. Reuse rubber gasket from disposal by mounting on the flange of the new tailpiece. (See Fig. 2b)

4. Insert a new drain line adapter with a push-in connector (provided) into the top of the disposal tee until it firmly seats on the bottom of the socket. Gently secure with slip-joint washer and wing nut (provided). (See Fig. 3)

5. Mount gasket end of the cut tailpiece to disposal in the reverse order that disposal ell was removed (See Fig. 2b). Then install side outlet of disposal tee securely onto the cut end of the tailpiece with S.J. washer and wing nut (provided). (See Fig. 2c)

6. Replace J-bend by sliding onto trap and tailpiece of disposal tee simultaneously. Secure tightly by reusing original S.J nuts and washer. (See Fig. 2c & 4)

7. Rotate push-in connector towards incoming reject water drain tubing and secure tightly with wing nut. (See Fig. 4)

8. Insert drain tubing into the push-in connector to complete the installation. (See Fig. 5)
   IMPORTANT:
   

   • Use only high-quality 1/4-inch O.D. tubing of the exact size and roundness with no surface nicks or scratches.

   • Always make a clean square cut if necessary, using a plastic tubing cutter or sharp razor knife.

   • Apply locking clip for quick connect fittings. Clip fits around the collet to prevent leaks or accidental disconnection of the tube.
     CAUTION:

   • For a leak-free connection, the tubing must be pushed fully into the bottom of the socket. (Alternatively, you can measure 7/16-inch from the end of the tube and insert it until full stop.)

   • Check that the connection is leak-free.

CONFIGURATION – B
For best results, use Configuration – A only

• CAUTION: Be careful not to overtighten any nuts on plastic fittings.
  NOTE: To connect reverse osmosis reject water drain line to the plumbing of a single-compartment sink without disposal, or a double-compartment sink, please request an ET112-001.
  Drain saddle fittings are prohibited in the United States.
  The ET109-001 is designed to be used downstream of an approved air gap.
