Tools and Hardware Reviews of Waste King L-2600 Legend Series 1/2 HP Continuous Feed Operation Waste DisposerCustomer Review: Concerning the L2600, one suggestion. Summary: 4 StarsOrdered my Waste King L2600 on Tuesday and it was delivered on Thursday. You can't beat that with a stick. The first thing I zeroed in on when I took it out of the box was the power cord. This thing was not intended to be easily removed, which was my intent since I don't have a switched outlet. My old disposal is hard-wired to a switch. First of all, the wire connections are crimped so you can't just back off a wire-nut and pull them apart. No biggy, you just cut the wires, but then comes that strain relief. The cord and the strain relief are molded together as a unit, the strain relief being a solid rubber plug that, when pushed into the hole in the housing can't be removed, which is as it should be. That's why it's there but if you want to remove that cord, then you've got a problem.
What I ended up doing was taking an Exacto knife and cutting away the inside "shoulder" portion of the strain relief to the point where I could muscle it back out thru the hole, using a small screwdriver as a prying tool. Once that was done it was just a matter of stripping the ends of the two wires on the unit in preparation for hooking them to the wires from the switch.
My suggestion: Make that cord an option and instead of installing it at the factory, put it in the box along with a couple of wire-nuts and some simple instructions for those who need them. A strain relief would be installed at the factory because that is a requirement regardless of which electrical hook up you go with - the cord to be plugged into a switched outlet or hard wired to a switch. It would have saved me about 30 minutes of futzing around removing that cord that came pre-installed.
