Put a extension on the socket and put it on the nut in the center of the
disposal. I believe mine takes a 3/4 inch socket. Put the racket on the
extension and turn the socket clockwise. Unplug the disposal and u can put your
hand down the disposal and feel the nut.

Aloha all,
I did get hold of a wrench to turn the disposal
from the bottom and it does turn but it almost
takes 3 men and a baby to move it. It didn't get
any easier after turning it several times.
RJ, where would I put the socket to turn it from the top?
