WasteMaster Rubbish Compactor

Assembly & User Guide

Waste Master Operation

  1. Ensure the bin is completely open and the lid is folded back.
  2. Place the claws over the bin handles and allow the bottom of the compactor base to contact the waste in the bin.
  3. Standing at the front of the bin, pull back on the unit allowing the claws to "lock" onto the bin handles. Pull down on the handle so the compactor base can depress the waste within the bin.
  4. Repeat several times until waste within the bin is at the desired level.
  5. Remove the Waste Master and store it on the back of the bin, attached to the handles.

Please note: Do not use excessive force or "hang off" the handle when using the unit, as this may cause damage to the bin or possible injury.

Parts List

  • A Compactor Base: 1
  • B Connector Legs: 2
  • C Handle: 1
  • D Locking Arms: 2
  • E 40mm Bolts: 4
  • F Nylon Washers: 14

Assembly Steps

Step 1

Connect the lower bolt hole of the Connector Legs (B) to the corresponding fitting on the Compactor Base (A). Use one 40mm Bolt (E), two Nylon Washers (F) (one on each side of the connection), and one Locking Nut (G) for each hole marked with an arrow in the diagram. Ensure a nylon washer is placed on both the nut and bolt head side of the fitting. The locking nut must be fitted with the black internal washer and recessed edge facing outwards. Once done, tighten so the connection is firm and the locking nut has made full contact with the thread of the bolt. Ensure the base can swing freely.

Step 2

Align and connect the upper bolt hole of the Locking Arms (D) to the Handle (C). Use one 40mm Bolt (E), two Nylon Washers (F), and one Locking Nut (G) for each hole marked with an arrow in the diagram. Ensure a nylon washer is placed on both the nut and bolt head side of the fitting. The locking nut must be fitted with the black internal washer and recessed edge facing outwards. Tighten until the connection is firm and the locking nut has made full contact with the thread of the bolt.

Step 3

Connect the assembled sections from Step 1 and Step 2. Use one 70mm Bolt (H), three Nylon Washers (F), and one Locking Nut (G) for each connection marked with an arrow in the diagram. Ensure a nylon washer is placed on both the nut and bolt head side of the fitting. The locking nut must be fitted with the black internal washer and recessed edge facing outwards. Tighten until the connection is firm and the locking nut has made full contact with the thread of the bolt. Ensure the base can swing freely.

Important Notes for Assembly

Orientation: Ensure that the claws are facing down and the single "U" section of the Compactor Base is facing towards the handle and away from the "claws".

Tightening: Do not over-tighten. Ensure the base can swing freely.
