# How to Replace the Lid on Your OGO™ ORIGIN Compost Toilet
## Simple Instructions for a Quick Lid Replacement No need to stress over a cracked or broken lid. With just a basic tool and a few easy steps, you’ll have your OGO™ ORIGIN Compost Toilet looking and working like new—fast.

- A replacement lid for the OGO™ ORIGIN
- (Optional) A small hammer or mallet for light tapping

#### Step-by-Step Lid Replacement
### 1. Remove the Damaged Lid
The OGO™ ORIGIN lid is secured with a hinge pin. To remove it:
- Insert your screwdriver or punch into one end of the hinge pin.
- Push the pin until it begins to slide out the opposite side.
- Once exposed, pull the pin out completely.
- Lift the lid off the toilet base.
If the pin feels stuck, gently wiggle your tool or apply light pressure until it moves.
### 2. Install the New Lid
- Align the new lid’s hinge holes with the openings on the toilet body.
- Slide the hinge pin back through the holes, keeping everything lined up.
- Push the pin in by hand or use a small mallet to tap it gently into place.
- Make sure the pin sits flush and even on both sides.
### 3. Test for Fit
Open and close the lid a few times to ensure it moves smoothly and the hinge pin is secure. It should stay firmly in place without sliding out.
