Adjusting the Toe Plate
3.Attach a 15" x ¹⁄₂"
If the toe plate rubs the floor covering, the toe plate clearance may be changed as follows:
1.Mark on each side of the toe plate the amount of toe plate that rubs the floor covering.
2.Remove the drawer from the unit. (See Step 3 in the “Unpacking” section.)
3.Use a ruler and a pencil or chalk to draw a line between the marks on each side of toe plate.
4.Use scissors or utility knife to cut toe plate along line.
5.Replace drawer. If toe plate still rubs floor covering, repeat Steps

COMPACTOR USE
How Your Compactor Works
The compacting ram is the part of the compactor which compresses the trash. The compacting ram does not go to the bottom of the drawer. You will not see compacting of trash the first few times you load the compactor.
NOTE: The compactor drawer should be more than ¹⁄₂ full before the compactor can begin to compress the load.
You may hear a noise when glass breaks. Strong glass bottles may not break at all. The trash in a full compactor bag will be about ¹⁄₄ the size of its original bulk.
Load bulky trash, bottles, and cans in the center of the drawer. Bottles or cans not placed in the center may become caught between the ram and the drawer. The Drawer Monitor Switch then senses a “misload” and causes the ram to return to the “up” position without compacting.
