Using Solid (Locked) Cycle

The Solid (Locked) Cycle extends the use of the bag by putting constant pressure on the trash to keep it from springing back. Regular use of solid cycle can increase bag capacity up to

25 percent.

During Solid Cycle, the ram will stay in the down position for extra compacting. The drawer is locked and cannot be opened when the ram is down.

For best results, use the Solid Cycle for at least 30 minutes at a time.
