Undercounter Installation

NOTE: Proper installation is your responsibility. Make sure you 
have everything necessary for correct installation. It is the 
personal responsibility and obligation of the customer to contact 
a qualified installer to assure that electrical installation meets all 
National and Local codes and ordinances.

Gather the required tools and parts before starting installation.

■

Do not grasp control panel to move compactor.

■

Slide compactor onto cardboard or hardboard before moving 
compactor across floor to avoid floor covering damage.

■

Do not allow the rear frame of the compactor to touch the 
floor covering when lifting or moving compactor.

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 
34

¹⁄₄" (87 cm) (Position 1).

■

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

¹⁄₄" to 34⁷⁄₁₆" (87 to 87.5 cm)

Position 3: 34

⁷⁄₁₆" 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 the leveling legs away from the cabinet. 

Adjust the 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 #8-18 x 

⁵₁₆" screws, install the retaining 

brackets to cabinet top as needed:

■

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.”

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

opening.

Using the two #8-18 x 

¹₂" screws, fasten the retaining 

brackets to the countertop with the mounting screws.

If brackets cannot be attached to the underside of 
countertop, attach mounting clips to brackets. Fasten 
compactor to cabinet front with mounting screws through 
mounting clips.
