Your compactor reduces household trash to as
little as one-fourth of its original volume.
It compacts most refuse, including paper,
cans, bottles, jars, plastic containers, wrappings,
sweepings and some food wastes.
Drop trash into the disposable bag (designed
for compactor use) that lines the compactor
trash drawer and close the drawer. When you
start the compactor, an electrically-operated
The removable knob is provided for your
protection as a safety measure. When the knob
switch is in the OFF position, the compactor
will not operate.
The compactor has two safety switches to
ensure that the drawer is in its fully closed
position for operation. The compactor will not
cycle without the drawer being fully closed.
Before installing a new bag, be sure that:
1. The drawer side is securely locked.
2. The container is clean and free of sharp
debris that may puncture the bag.
Reinforced plastic bags came with your
compactor and are ready to be installed.
You must use the specially designed
heavy-duty trash bags included with your
compactor. These bags are available from
your dealer or Factory Service Center. Ask
for catalog number WC60X5017. If you prefer,
you can order by mail. A handy order form is
provided with your compactor and is included
in every replacement bag package.
Using the Trash Compactor

ram moves down into the drawer, compacts
trash, moves back up again—and the
compactor shuts off automatically.
NOTE: The trash drawer must be at least 1/2
full before you will notice compaction because
the ram does not travel all the way down into
the drawer. By adding trash, compaction is
transferred to the items below until all trash is
compacted.
Child Lockout Instructions:
Lock the compactor when it is not in
use, by removing the knob. This will keep
children from operating the compactor and
prevent anyone from tampering with it.
To install a new bag:
1. Place the bag into the drawer over the bag
caddy. Open the bag and pull the top edges
over the drawer top.
2. Lock the bag in place by pulling the four
prepunched holes over the bag retainer
buttons. Holes will expand over the
buttons without harming the bag.
3. Press inside of bag against the drawer
bottom, sides and corners for a smooth fit.
