DO NOT use plastic bags other than those which have been
designed for use in this compactor. Unauthorized bags may become caught in the mechanism.
With the drawer extended to the second stop, release the container latch and swing open door. Slide bag into drawer from
front to back. Fold bag over top rim of drawer on all sides.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
ALWAYS UNPLUG COMPACTOR FROM WALL OUTLET
BEFORE SERVICING.
The service information is intended for use by a service technician who is familiar with proper and safe procedures to be followed when repairing electrical appliances and who is equipped
with proper tools and testing devices. Repairs attempted or made
improperly can result in personal injury or property damage.
Hazards may develop from improper assembly or adjustments.
While making repairs, persons not having the proper background
may subject themselves to the risk of injury or electrical shock
which can be serious or even fatal.

PREPUNCHED HOLES

Press bag into all corners of the drawer. Smooth and shape the
bag carefully - this will prevent the bag from being torn by the
ram during compaction.

IMPORTANT - NOTE TO THE CONSUMER
If you perform service on your own Broan products, you must
assume responsibility for personal injury or property damage
which may result.

MODEL AND SERIAL NO. IDENTIFICATION
The specification label with model and serial numbers is located on the inside of the cabinet. It is visible after opening the
drawer.

TRANSPORTING COMPACTOR
When transporting compactor, the ram should be electrically or
manually extended down into the drawer, preferably against a
load of stacked newspapers or other suitable material. If this is
not done, damage to the trunnion nut may occur.
Never transport compactor on its back or front. Damage to the
gearbox may occur. If it cannot be transported upright, it is
preferable to place it on its side.

DRAWER BUTTONS

MANUAL RAISING AND LOWERING OF RAM
Unplug compactor cord from wall socket. Remove back panel.
The ram may be raised or lowered manually by using a 15/16"
socket to turn the drive screw nut. Clockwise will lower ram,
counterclockwise will raise it.

TRUNNION BEARING

GEARBOX

1. Remove sprocket and drive pin.
2. Pull out trunnion bearing.
Grease trunnion bearing inside and out with wheel bearing grease
prior to reinstalling.

1. Lower ram manually until there is approximately 11" to 12"
between the ram and the bottom assembly.
2. Remove the four 3/8" nuts securing motor to gearbox, slide
motor out and rest it on the front trunnion assembly.
3. Turn sprocket until two holes in sprocket line up with the
two socket head cap screws that hold the gearbox to the
motor trunnion.
4. Remove the two socket head cap screws with a 5/32" hex
key. NOTE: The screws thread into 2 nuts which rest in slots
in the motor trunnion. Be careful not to lose the 2 nuts when
the screws are removed.
5. Tilt gearbox forward and remove chain. Lift gearbox out.
When installing gearbox, Locktite® should be applied to the
socket head cap screw nuts.

MOTOR TRUNNION
1. Remove motor, gearbox, spocket, and screw guard.
2. Use 13/16" wrench to remove bolts securing links to motor
trunnion.
When reinstalling, bolts torque to 45 foot pounds.

SPROCKET
1. Line up one of the 3/8" holes in the sprocket with the 3/8"
hole in bottom center of gearbox. Insert 3/8" steel pin or bolt
through sprocket hole into front and rear gearbox holes.*
2. Loosen and remove 15/16" nut on the drive screw. When
reinstalling torque to 65 foot pounds and apply Locktite® to

CHAIN
1. Turn sprocket until two holes in sprocket line up with socket
head cap screws.
2. Remove socket head cap screws and tip gearbox/motor assembly to remove chain. NOTE: The screws thread into 2
nuts which rest in slots in the motor trunnion. Be careful not
to lose the 2 nuts when the screws are removed.
When reinstalling socket head cap screws, be sure Locktite® is
applied to the nuts.
Chain Derailment: Loose chains. Sometimes a chain will derail because trash which flew up above the ram during compacting fouled the
chain. Newspaper or a paper bag should be placed on top of glass
bottles before compacting to prevent this.
If continual derailment of the chain is a problem, inspect both sprockets for worn or missing teeth.
Inspect gearbox mounting and
mounting plate. If the mounting screws are loose, gearbox
movement may be the cause. If
the gearbox mounting plate is
bent where it meets the motor
trunnion, either straighten or replace the gearbox.
Some chain looseness is normal
and may increase as the compactor is used. Seldom does the
chain “stretch” to the point
where it is too loose.
