Undercounter Installation

Measure the height of your cabinet opening. The top of the compactor should be at least 1/8"(3 mm) from the top of the cabinet opening.

The rear wheels are preset for a cabinet opening of 34Y4" (87 cm). See Position "1" in picture following.

To adjust for other cabinet opening heights:

• Loosen self-tapping screw just enough to clear stud from hole in Position "1."

• Move the rear wheel and stud to Position "2" or "3" as needed for your cabinet opening measurement:

Position "2": 34%" to 347/16'' (87 to 87.5 cm) Position "3": 347/_6'' to 34%" (87.5 to 88 cm) NOTE: To level the compactor in position "3," you may need to add shims under the leveling legs.

• Tighten screw. Repeat for other rear wheel.

Slowly lift the front slightly and roll compactor into the cabinet opening.
