Do not allow the rear frame of the compactor to touch the
floor covering when lifting or moving compactor.
Installing
1. Measure the height of your kitchen cabinet opening. The top
of the compactor should be a minimum of
the top of the kitchen cabinet opening.
The rear wheels are preset for a kitchen cabinet opening
height of 34¹⁄₄" (87 cm) (position 1).
To adjust for other kitchen cabinet opening heights:
Loosen self-tapping screw just enough to clear stud from
hole in position 1.
Move the rear wheel and stud to position 2 or 3 as
needed for your kitchen cabinet opening measurement:
Position 2: 34¹⁄₄" to 34⁷⁄₁₆" (87 to 87.5 cm)
Position 3: 34⁷⁄₁₆" to 34⁵⁄₈" (87.5 to 88 cm)
NOTE: To level the unit in position 3, you may need to
add shims under the front leveling legs.
Tighten screw. Repeat for other rear wheel.

cabinet. Adjust legs so there will be a ¹⁄₈" (3 mm) to ¹ ₄"
(6.4 mm) space between the top of the compactor and the
top of the kitchen cabinet opening. Stand the compactor
upright.
3. Move the compactor close to its final position.

Using 2 - #8 - 18 x ⁵ ₁₆" mounting screws (provided), attach
the retaining brackets to the compactor cabinet top as
needed.
If the compactor cabinet face is to be flush with the
kitchen cabinet face, place retaining bracket mounting
screws through "1."
If the compactor drawer front is to be flush with the
kitchen cabinet face, place retaining bracket mounting
screws through "3."
If the compactor is to be midway between "1" and "3,"
place the retaining bracket mounting screws through
"2."
