Installation Instructions

2. Mount Cabinet: Insert the heavy gauge stainless steel cabinet into the prepared rough opening. Secure the cabinet using appropriate fasteners (not included) through the pre-drilled holes in the cabinet flange.
3. Ensure Flush Fit: The 22 gauge stainless steel flange, with its 1-inch wide and 1/4-inch return, should sit flush against the finished wall surface.
4. Verify Door Operation: After securing, ensure the waste container door, joined by a stainless steel full-length piano hinge, opens and closes smoothly.

Operation

Using the Bradley 3251-000000 Recessed Waste Receptacle is straightforward:

• Waste Disposal: To dispose of waste, gently push the rectangular push flap door, which is embossed with 'PUSH'. The door is self-closing to maintain a clean appearance and contain odors.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance will ensure the longevity and hygienic operation of your Bradley waste receptacle.

• Cleaning Stainless Steel Surfaces: Clean exposed stainless steel surfaces regularly with a soft cloth and a mild, non-abrasive cleaner specifically designed for stainless steel. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive pads, which can scratch the satin finish.
• Cleaning Plastic Insert: The leak-proof molded plastic insert should be cleaned as needed with soap and water or a mild disinfectant. Ensure it is dry before reinserting.
• Hinge and Lock Inspection: Periodically inspect the full-length piano hinge and tumbler lock for any signs of wear or damage. Lubricate hinges if necessary with a silicone-based lubricant.
• General Inspection: Check for any loose fasteners or components and tighten them as required.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your Bradley 3251-000000 Recessed Waste Receptacle, consider the following:

• Door Not Closing Properly: Check for any obstructions in the door's path or debris around the hinge. Ensure the unit is installed level and plumb.
• Waste Insert Difficult to Remove/Insert: Verify that the waste container door is fully open and that the insert is aligned correctly. Ensure no waste is jammed around the edges.
• Lock Malfunction: If the tumbler lock is stiff or not engaging, try applying a small amount of graphite lubricant to the keyhole. If the issue persists, contact a qualified technician.
• General Issues: For problems not covered here, review the installation instructions to ensure all steps were followed correctly. If issues persist, contact the manufacturer or seller for further assistance.
