1.Remove sprocket and drive pin.
2.Pull out trunnion bearing.
Grease trunnion bearing inside and out with wheel bearing grease prior to reinstalling.
MOTOR TRUNNION1.Remove motor, gearbox, spocket, and screw guard.
2.Use 13/16" wrench to remove bolts securing links to motor trunnion.
When reinstalling, bolts torque to 45 foot pounds.
SPROCKET1.Line up one of the 3/8" holes in the sprocket with the 3/8" hole in bottom center of gearbox. Insert 3/8" steel pin or bolt through sprocket hole into front and rear gearbox holes.*
2.Loosen and remove 15/16" nut on the drive screw. When reinstalling torque to 65 foot pounds and apply Locktite® to threads.
*If the sprocket is too damaged to be able to use on of the holes to secure it, chip away the remaining sprocket, remove the drive pin and then insert a screwdriver through the hole to provide a means of keeping the drive screw from turning.
CHAIN1.Turn sprocket until two holes in sprocket line up with socket head cap screws.
2.Remove socket head cap screws and tip gearbox/motor as- sembly to remove chain. NOTE: The screws thread into 2 nuts which rest in slots in the motor trunnion. Be careful not to lose the 2 nuts when the screws are removed.
When reinstalling socket head cap screws, be sure Locktite® is applied to the nuts.
Chain Derailment: Loose chains. Sometimes a chain will derail because trash which flew up above the ram during compacting fouled the chain. Newspaper or a paper bag should be placed on top of glass bottles before compacting to prevent this.
If continual derailment of the chain is a problem, inspect both sprockets for worn or missing teeth.
Inspect gearbox mounting and mounting plate. If the mounting screws are loose, gearbox movement may be the cause. If the gearbox mounting plate is bent where it meets the motor trunnion,eitherstraightenorreplace the gearbox.
Somechainloosenessisnormal and may increase as the compactor is used. Seldom does the chain “stretch” to the point where it is too loose.

1.Lower ram manually until there is approximately 11" to 12" between the ram and the bottom assembly.
2.Remove the four 3/8" nuts securing motor to gearbox, slide motor out and rest it on the front trunnion assembly.
3.Turn sprocket until two holes in sprocket line up with the two socket head cap screws that hold the gearbox to the motor trunnion.
4.Remove the two socket head cap screws with a 5/32" hex key. NOTE: The screws thread into 2 nuts which rest in slots in the motor trunnion. Be careful not to lose the 2 nuts when the screws are removed.
5.Tilt gearbox forward and remove chain. Lift gearbox out.
When installing gearbox, Locktite® should be applied to the socket head cap screw nuts.

GREASING COMPACTORMECHANISM1.Unplug compactor from wall outlet.
2.Remove drawer assembly from compactor.
3.Remove back of compactor and lower mechanism manually by turning 5/8" nut on sprocket clockwise.
4.Line up one of the holes in the black sprocket with the hole in the gearbox. Insert a 3/8" bolt or pin to keep sprocket from turning and remove the 15/16" nut.
5.Slide off sprocket and washer.
6.Drive out the drive pin, slide off thin washer and pull out trunnion bearing.
7.Grease trunnion bearing everywhere, inside and out, with regular wheel bearing grease.
8.Reassemble unit in reverse procedure. When reinstalling 15/ 16" nut, be sure to apply a drop of Locktite® or equivalent to the threads of the 15/16" nut.
Apply grease to length of drive screw and a dab to the scissor links at the pivot points.
