The waste container consists of a plastic container inside a cardboard box.
You typically dispose of the entire waste container—including the box.
Therefore, you must assemble a new box and insert a new plastic container
before you can install it in the printer.
Replacement boxes, plastic containers, and sealing caps are supplied in
the Objet260 printer start-up kit and in the preventive-maintenance kit.
To prepare a new waste container:
1. Assemble the cardboard box, making sure to punch out the perforated
sections.
2. Place a new plastic container into the box.
Note:
Do not close the box until you connect the waste drain tube from the
printer.
To replace the waste container:
1. Locate the door on the lower-left side of the printer.
2. Push in the top-center of the door to release the latch and open the door.

Make sure that the waste drain tube is not crimped and that it is not
pinched by the container.
