METAL DRAWER LINER:
Clean as necessary using a cloth or sponge
and a mild detergent and water. Rinse with
clear water and dry. Do not use abrasive
cleansers.
METAL DRAWER:
Occasionally, the drawer latch rod (A), and
slide hook (B) located on both sides of the
drawer opening should be lubricated. This
will prevent the door latch from squeaking
or sticking and help insure and extend the
life of the latch mechanism. We suggest
soap or a Solid stick lubricant which can be
purchased at auto supply or hardware
stores.
BEHIND METAL DRAWER:
Occasionally check the area behind the Trash Drawer and remove any small pieces of
trash. Placing a folded newspaper on top of trash will help prevent small items from sticking
to the ram and falling behind the drawer.
COMPACTOR EXTERIOR
FRONT PANELS:
Wipe clean with a cloth or sponge and mild detergent and water. Rinse with clear water
and wipe dry. Do not use abrasive cleansers.
TEXTURED STEEL BROWN TOP:
Wipe clean with a cloth or sponge and mild detergent and water. Rinse with clear water
and wipe dry. Do not use abrasive cleaners. TO AVOID PERMANENT DAMAGE TO
FINISH, DO NOT USE TEXTURED STEEL TOP FOR A CUTTING SURFACE.
MAPLE WOOD TOP:
The maple wood top is prefinished with a protective lacquer seal. For daily care, wipe with
a damp cloth. To remove stubborn stains, cover stain with dampened scouring powder
for three to five hours. Then wipe away with a damp cloth.
After an extended period of use, it may be necessary to recondition the top by lightly
sanding off all remaining lacquer and applying mineral oi! to the cutting board. Saturate
a clean cloth with oil and wipe on. Allow to absorb overnight. Repeat oil treatment the
following day and allow to stand four to six hours before removing excess oil with soft,
dry cloth. The top is then ready to use. Repeat treatment every six to eight months, as
necessary.
