TroubleshootingGuide/Service
Before calling for assistance .
Performance problems often result from little things you can find and fix yourself without tools of any kind.
If your compactor won’t operate:
“Isthe power cable plugged into a live circuit with the proper voltage?
*Have you checked your home’s main fuses or circuit breaker box?
%‘lsthe drawer completely closed?
“1sthe
Drawer won’t open:
*Drawer will open only when ram is all the way up. @Toraise the ram, turn the
release.
If trash is not compacting:
*Is the drawer loaded properly? If anything gets between the ram and the drawer, the ram will return to the “up” position, without compacting.
aDrawer must be at least l/3 full before compactor will compact.
Not enough compaction or force:
*Compacting works best when only a few items are loaded. Use the compacting cycle frequently.
Bottles don’t break:
.Not all bottles will break every time, depending on the bottle and the trash load below it.
