1/12 of its 

 volume.

 jars, plastic containers, wrappings, sweepings

and some food wastes.

How it Works

A key lock switch is provided for your protection as a safety measure.

 to keep children from operating the compactor or to prevent

anyone from tampering with it.

Drawer 

 Latch

 latch has two positions— OPEN and CLOSE. 

 OPEN position

releases the latch so you can pull out the drawer. 

 CLOSE position, used

only when you want to compact trash, provides a positive drawer lock and
an electrical safety interlock, preventing the drawer from being opened
while the ram is moving.

Odor Control Panel

A panel behind the drawer front is designed to hold an adhesive backed
freshener, such as a Stick-Up brand Air Freshener package. Simply open the
drawer and fasten the opened air freshener package on the panel. Replace
the air freshener as needed.

Bag Storage Compartment

 compartment at the top of the compactor allows you to store trash bags

and air fresheners where they are used—right in the 

 

 door

swings down to make them readily accessible when they are needed.
