OPERATION
USING A CONTAINER PUSH BAR (CPB)
Once the container is secured within the latch assem-
bly the container is ready to be dumped. After assuring
that all persons are standing clear, the operator moves
the CPB control lever in the direction shown on the in-
struction decal to raise the container. When raising a
container with the push bar, it is normal for the container
to first lift upward within the container latch assembly,
then tip toward the hopper and finally lower or drop to the
bottom of the latch slots.
Do not overfill the hopper. After assuring that all persons
are standing clear lower the container to check the load
condition of the container and the hopper. Lower the con-
tainer enough to see between the container and the tail-
gate while standing on the ground without placing your-
self between them.
Releasing the CPB control handle when the container
begins to tip will allow the container trunnion bar to lower
within the latch slots with ease.
PACKING THE LOAD
NOTE:
The compaction cycle can be stopped at any time by
moving both the packer panel lever and the carrier panel
lever to the center (neutral).
1. Cycle the packer panel and the carrier panel by mov-
ing both the packer panel lever and the carrier panel
lever inward, toward the tailgate, then let go. The packer
panel will open and the packer panel lever will automati-
cally shift to neutral. The carrier panel will then move
down to above the loading edge, stop in the “interrupted
cycle” position and the carrier panel lever will automati-
cally shift to neutral.
2. To finish the cycle, move both the packer panel lever
and the carrier panel lever outward, away from the tail-
gate, then let go. The packer panel will sweep the hop-
per and the packer panel lever will automatically shift to
neutral. The carrier panel will then move up into the body
and stop in the home position and the carrier panel lever
will automatically shift to neutral.
Stand clear of the hopper area during the packing
cycle!
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 each time the hopper is filled to,
but not above, the loading edge.
