I just bought a new Badger 5 and the sink flange, fiber gasket, backup flange and mounting ring come out of the box as once piece. I have loosened the screws but can't seem to figure out how to separate all 4 unique parts. What am I missing? I can't get proceed with the installation. Appreciate any help...

The ring can be expanded to slide over the sides of the flange; if you can't "roll" it down the sides with your fingers prying at the split end of the ring may loosen it enough to slide down the sides of the flange.

Hey, wait a minute.

This is awkward, but...
