Electrical Requirements
Recommended Grounding Method
This compactor is for use on a single phase, 115-volt, 60 Hz, AC
only, 15- or 20-amp fused and properly grounded circuit and is
equipped with a grounding plug as shown below. It is
recommended that a separate circuit serving only this appliance
be provided.
This compactor must be grounded while in use to reduce the risk
of electric shock. The compactor is equipped with a three-
conductor cord and 3 prong grounding-type plug to fit the proper
grounding-type receptacle. The green (or green and yellow)
conductor in the cord is the grounding wire. Do not connect the
green (or green and yellow) wire to a live terminal.
Undercounter Installation

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
34¹⁄₄" (87 cm) (Position 1).
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: 34¹⁄₄" to 34⁷⁄₁₆" (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 leveling legs.
■ Tighten screw. Repeat for other rear wheel.
