the ON position

Make sure the switch is in the 

ON

 position.

Foot pedal may not be lifted 

up long enough to start 

cycle

Lift foot pedal up momentarily until compaction cycle starts.

Check to make sure the drawer is firmly closed.

have opened the motor circuit. Wait a few minutes and 

the motor reset will reclose automatically.

close

Trash may have fallen 

behind the drawer

Remove any trash.

Drawer will not 

open

The ram is not all the way 

up

Lift up on the foot pedal and release to allow ram to 

complete a cycle.

Little or no apparent 

compaction

Drawer is not full enough
