主权项 1. A tool for supporting a garbage disposal having a circular first mounting ring rotationally engaged on one end, in an elevated position, and rotate said first mounting ring to operative engagement with a second mounting ring positioned below a drain of a sink, said tool comprising: a substantially c-shaped body having a central aperture therein and having a gap in said body communicating with said central aperture; a first handle, said first handle extending away from an engagement with said body at a first end, to a distal end; a second handle extending from a respective engagement of a respective first end thereof to said body, to a respective distal end; said first handle and second handle extending in opposite directions from said body; said gap sized to pass said garbage disposal therethrough into said central aperture; said body configured with a depression in a first surface of said body adapted to engage at least one projection extending from said first mounting ring in a removable mating engagement while supporting said mounting ring and a weight of said garbage disposal engaged therewith, in an as-used position of said tool, in a contact of a lower surface of said first mounting ring against said first surface of said body; whereby an elevation of said tool in said as-used position above a support surface, concurrently elevates said mounting ring and said garbage disposal; and wherein a rotation of said tool in said as-used position imparts a concurrent rotation to said first mounting ring, whereby said first mounting ring is thereby operatively engaged with said second mounting ring to thereby position said garbage disposal to a mounted position with said sink.
