Rotate the ring counter clockwise and the disposal will drop down. Hold the disposal up while turning the ring. The neck sticking down through the sink should have 3 screws holding it in place. Loosen the screws and the plate they go through will raise up so that you can remove the snap ring at the bottom of the tube. With the plate and snap ring removed, push the neck out of the sink.
