| + | # Place the bucket under the hopper at the bottom of the cabinet. |
| + | # Pull down on the door, it's on a heavy spring and will snap back, you have to hold it. The media will fall into the bucket. |
| + | # Make sure the cabinet is free as possible of the old media, mixing and matching media is a no-no. |
| + | # Remove the bucket from under the cabinet. ''It will be quite heavy.'' |
| + | # Put the lid on the bucket! |
| + | # Find the bucket of media you want to use, open doors to the cabinet and pour the contents into the cabinet via the grate. |
| + | # '''''Label what media is currently loaded, the date, and who loaded it.''''' |
| + | # Check the floor and clean up any spilled media. This stuff can be ''very'' slippery, and the person most likely to fall will be you. |
