Is the pedal mechanism durable?
The pedal mechanism is designed for regular use. However, like any mechanical part, prolonged heavy use or improper handling could affect its longevity. Treat it gently for best results.
Troubleshooting
Lid does not close automatically
Ensure the lid is not obstructed. Check that the inner bucket is correctly seated and not preventing full closure. If the issue persists, the spring mechanism may require inspection or professional service.
Pedal feels stiff or unresponsive
Check for any debris or blockages around the pedal and hinge mechanism. Wipe the pedal and lever clean. Ensure the inner bucket is not jammed against the pedal linkage.
Bin makes loud noises when closing
This indicates the soft-close mechanism is not functioning. Ensure no foreign objects are impeding the lid's movement. If the lid slams shut, the soft-close damper may be faulty and require replacement.
Inner bucket is difficult to remove or insert
Ensure the outer bin is stable and the liner bag is not caught on the edges. Check for any damage to the inner or outer bin that might be causing a misalignment.
