open whilst removing the
wheeled bin, turn the door stay
catch clockwise so that it is
positioned horizontally.
Remove wheeled bin from
housing.
After replacing the wheeled bin,
remove the door stay catch by

NOTE: To allow the wheeled bin to sit inside the housing in the correct position, it is recommended that
the lid of the wheeled bin remains attached and is simply folded over the back of the bin when in use.
For best results please ensure that the front of the wheeled bin is level with the front two extrusions.
REMOVING HOUSING FROM PALLET:
To remove the housing from the pallet rst make sure the housing is in the area where it is to be ground
xed (will be dicult to manoeuvre when o the pallet). Open the door (see Figs1-3) and using a hand drill
remove four screws and washers at the base of each extrusion. Close and lock the door (Figs 5-6) then slide
or lift the housing from the pallet (will require 3-4 people for assistance).

Using a 13mm spanner/socket
unscrew the two bolts with washers
on the inside at the bottom of the
extrusions and remove.
Lift the extrusion upwards and
pull the spigot leg down to a
more appropriate height ensuring
that the housing is now level.
Replace the bolts and washers into
the new holes within the spigot leg
and tighten with spanner/socket.
Repeat Figs 7-9 on the other legs
that need adjusting.
Using a 10mm masonry drill bit,
drill through the hole in the spigot
leg down into the concrete
approximately 150mm deep.
The xing bolts (R) MUST appear as
above with the nut and washer at the
top of the bolt. Using a hammer, tap
xing bolt through the hole in the
spigot leg until it is ush with the
spigot plate.
Tighten bolt using 17mm
spanner. Repeat Figs 10-12 to
ground x the other three
extrusions.
We recommend that a risk assessment is undertaken to identify an appropriate location for your waste
collection and recycling units. In order to reduce risk, some organisations decide to place the units a
minimum of 5 metres away from buildings. Any potential risk can be further reduced by maintaining a regime
of regularly emptying the unit. You may also wish to consider installing a Glasdon FiresafeTM. Glasdon Firesafe is
an eective low cost auxiliary device designed to quickly extinguish re at source but is not intended to replace
primary re prevention measures. A regular inspection and maintenance programme will ensure the device is
kept in good working order. In the event that the device has been discharged it must be replaced.

P. 3
Using 17mm spanner, loosen
nyloc nut on right hand side of
wheel.
Using 17mm spanner and 6mm
allen key, loosen nut on left side of
the wheel to free the axle from the
wheel support bar.
If the door is not level and there is
a large gap between the hood, as
seen above, the door wheel can
be adjusted.
Lift door panel and pull wheel
down so that the axle drops down
the slot in the wheel support bar
(may require two people).
Once in correct position, tighten
up nut (left of wheel) to lock the
axle in place.
Tighten up nyloc nut (right of
wheel) ensuring that wheel can
still rotate freely but is secure on
the axle.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The door wheel must be positioned so that it is touching the ground when the door
is CLOSED. The main purpose of the door wheel is to support the large door when in the closed position.

Step 4: Further Adjustment of Door Wheel (If Required)
Using 17mm spanner, hold the nut
closest to the wheel support bar.
Using a second spanner unscrew the
outermost nut and remove. Repeat on
other wheel support bar xing point.
Using 17mm spanner remove the
second nut and washer. Repeat
on other wheel support bar xing
point.
Lift the wheel support bar o the
bolts, ensuring that the door is
still supported.

Step 4: Further Adjustment of Door Wheel (continued)
Making sure that the wheel
support bar is 90 degrees to the
door, replace the washer and rst
nut onto the bolt and tighten (do
NOT overtighten).
Holding the nut with the 17mm
spanner, place the second nut
over the bolt and tighten securely
with a second spanner. Repeat
Figs 23 and 24 using other xings.
Replace the wheel support bar
over the bolts using the
alternative holes to make the
adjustment of the door height.
Ensure that there is an even gap
around the perimeter of the door
for optimum performance.
25
Using 17mm spanner, tighten the
bolt at the top of each extrusion
on the inside of the housing.
26
To reduce the gap between the
door and the extrusion (opposite to
Figs 26 and 27) on the inside at the
top of the 4 o extrusions, tighten
the 2 o screws with a 5mm allen
key.
28
Close the door. Should the gap
between the door and the
extrusion be too small (as above)
and the lock cover is catching,
further tighten extrusion bolts (Fig
26). This will increase the gap.
