Undercounter Installation
NOTE: Installation hardware is not provided with full cabinet models.
1.Measure the height of your cabinet opening. The top of the compactor should be at least ¹₈ " (3 mm) from the top of the cabinet opening.
The rear wheels are preset for a cabinet opening height of 34¹⁄₄" (87 cm) (Position 1).
To adjust for other cabinet opening heights:
■Loosen
■Move the rear wheel and stud to position “2” or “3” as needed for your 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 leveling legs.
■Tighten screw. Repeat for other rear wheel.

2.Use pliers to lower leveling legs away from cabinet. Adjust legs so there will be a ¹⁄₈" (3 mm) to ¹₄ " (6.4 mm) space between the top of the compactor and the top of the cabinet opening. Stand the compactor upright.
3.For model with cabinet, remove the plastic plugs from the compactor cabinet top.
4.Move the compactor close to its final position.
5.Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
6.Determine if you want the compactor frame or drawer front flush with the cabinet front.
Using the two
■If the compactor frame is to be flush with the cabinet front, place retaining bracket screws through “1.”
■If the compactor drawer front is to be flush with the cabinet front, place retaining bracket screws through “3.”
■If the compactor is to be midway between “1” and “3,” place the retaining bracket screws through “2.”
