I need to take apart my Insinkerator 333. The nut on the motor shaft
won't budge. I've tried soaking it with penetrating oil.

To loosen it, does it the nut turn CCW or CW?

Any other suggstions will be appreciated.


Got it!
The nut turns CCW to loosen.

It just took a couple of hours of penetrating oil to get it motivated.


If you knew which way the grinding plate rotated when operating, it's a
safe bet that the nut would come off by turning it in the opposite
direction.
