The drawer roller wheel on the bottom right side rail has come apart and fallen off. I believe i have found the correct part on your website. It looks like the bolt on the back side must be taken off to replace the part. The access to the bolt is too small for access with a wrench. How does one get the damaged part off?Thank you,

Is there a handle for this model. There appears to be a recess for the fasteners on the inside of the door. It would be nice to be able to open and close it by the handle.

Hello Todd, Thank you for the question. Checking the model number provided, this appliance does not come equipped with a handle. We hope this helps!
Removed compactor from opening. Using screw driver unthreaded 4 screws from top and then removed the on/off dial. Face plate came off easy and provided access to relay switch bank. Unscrewed two screws which allowed both relay switches to be removed and replaced. Recommend replacing both relay switches. Reassembled and compactor worked fine. Very easy job. If your compactor is making a machine gun noise during the return cycle then this will solve your problem.
I watched you tube videos on how to dismantle and replace both Power Nuts. Job was not difficult but took a few hours to disassemble and repair. Compactor works as good as it ever has. If you are handy I would recommend doing this type repair.
