Using the ASI 1003 waste receptacle is easy. Just press down on the access door, and you can throw your trash into the container below. Make sure your countertop has a rough opening of 8 - 3/4 inches by 12 - 1/2 inches and a thickness between 1/2 inch and 4 inches before installation. When it comes to maintenance, since the waste container and access door are made of stainless steel, you can simply wipe them clean with a mild cleaner. Avoid using abrasive materials that might scratch the surface. If the container is full, take it out, empty the trash, and put it back in place. This will keep your commercial restroom clean and the receptacle working well.
