Removed the failed actuator base (two screws) using hardened phillips # 2 screwdriver. prepped the new part holes by inserting the screws into (too small on replacement part) holes prior to installing(used needle nose pliers to hold part while prepping holes).

Tested functionality and received hug from son's grateful wife. P.S. I printed the parts diagram showing the part relationships from the website. Very helpful in repair planning. Recommend this to all. Do not know why the two rubber grommets were included in kit as they seem to apply to the horizontal screws securing the pedel itself that the actuator is installed on and are not needed for the repair.

removed two screws and replaced broken piece. Only thing a little difficult was getting screws in tightly enough to hold piece secure.

Unscrewed 2 phillups screws, put new actuator on with 2 phillups screws. Works fine

I opened the door of the compactor and removed the old actuator with a scewdriver and replaced the new actuator.

Repair took just a couple of minutes. Two screws to install. Easy as pie.

No problem replacing the spring steel tab that actuates the switch for the compactor. My concern it is a poor design and will have to be replaced on a regular basis.

First I removed the two screws that held the broken element in place. I replaced it with the new metal actuator. TA DA! Ordering was very easy even for me a girl! Shipment could have been faster though.

I removed 2 screws that held the brokent piece in place. I positioned the new piece and replaced the 2 screws. This is the 3rd time I've done this repair myself, it's so easy.

Losses two screws, old part off; install two new screws, new part on. Piece of cake

Very simple. 2 screws to unscrew - and then screwed the new actuator in. took less than 10 minutes.

Replaced the broken part with a new part by attaching with 2 small sheet metal screws.

Part replacement

Removed the screws holding the remaining piece and replaced it with the new part. Hardest part of this whole issue was making sure that I had the correct part on order. Would have liked to have been able to blow up the diagram for easier viewing.

The part has broken several times in several years. Each time it required a service call with a hefty fee. The fourth time I decided to do it myself. I ordered the part. It came faster than a service man would have and I installed it myself with a screwdriver in about three minutes. I will treat myself to lunch out with the girls wit ...
