1. Measure the height of your kitchen cabinet opening. The top
of the compactor should be at least 1/8"(3 mm) from the top
of the kitchen cabinet opening.
The rear wheels are preset for a kitchen cabinet opening
height of 341/4" (87 cm) (position 1).
To adjust for other kitchen cabinet opening heights:
• Loosen self-tapping screw enough to clear stud from hole
in position 1.
IMPORTANT:
• 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.
• Move the rear wheel and stud to position 2 or 3 as
needed for your kitchen cabinet opening measurement:
Position 2:341/4'' to 347_6'' (87 to 87.5 cm)
Position 3:347/16'' to 345/8'' (87.5 to 88 cm)
NOTE: To level the unit in position 3, you may need to
add shims under the front leveling legs.
• Tighten screw.
