the compactor mounting screw head should be at least
1/8" (3 mm) from the top of the cabinet opening.
The rear wheels are preset for a cabinet height of 341/4"
(87 cm). See “Position 1” in the following picture.
To adjust for cabinet opening heights greater than 341/4":
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: 347/16" to 3411/16" (87.5 to 88.1 cm)
Position 3: 3413/16" to 35" (88.4 to 88.9 cm)
NOTE: To level the compactor in position 3, you may
need to add shims under the front leveling legs. The shims
should be approximately 1/4" (6 mm) thick.
