Hello
I was wondering if anyone could help me figure out how to get the first part of my disposal installed.... My sink hole doesn't seem to be big enough to fit the sink flange. I can get it in past the line where the ring was but it will NOT budge any farther down so it's sitting up an inch of the sink base. Any ideas to help me

Did you remove the split ring?

In the picture you can see the split ring that holds the lower part with the screws to the body.

You obviously doing something wrong or your sink was an import from Istanbul.
Take some pics and post them up.
