PRODUCT NOMENCLATURE (CONTINUED)
Hydraulic Pump – The unit’s hydraulic pump provides the oil flow for the hydraulic system. It is located either in front of
the unit’s engine or underneath the unit, powered by the transmission through a Power Take-Off (PTO). With a front-
mount pump, the operator turns the pump ON and OFF as needed with the SYSTEM POWER switch located on the in-cab
control panel. With a PTO pump, the operator engages the PTO then turns the SYSTEM POWER switch ON to activate
the pump. Depending on the pump and PTO combination, hydraulic oil may flow through the system when the pump is off,
however, the operator controls are inoperative and the system hydraulic oil pressure is not sufficient to operate the unit’s
functions.
Latch Bar – The latch bar provides a means of securing a refuse container for lifting and tilting with a reeving mechanism,
a winch or, a roll bar.
DANGER
The packer blade and slide assembly are dangerous. They can cause serious injury or death if a person is inside the
hopper. Make sure no one is inside the hopper before you begin a packer function. Put the unit in the Lock-Out/Tag-Out
mode if a person must enter the hopper.
(Packer) Blade – You MOVE the packer blade UP while you move the slide assembly OUT to load refuse into the hopper.
You MOVE the packer blade DOWN while you move the slide assembly IN to sweep refuse from the hopper towards the
body.
Packer Panel – The packer panel is comprised of the blade and upper panel (and other parts). The packer panel opens to
load refuse into the hopper, moves refuse from the hopper into the body and compacts it.
Reeving Mechanism – The reeving mechanism is an assembly that includes a cylinder, an attached cable with hook and
controls. This option allows an operator to load refuse from a commercial refuse container into the hopper. The controls
will be located on the rear, curb side of the unit.
DANGER
Do not use an arm mechanism or roll bar as a riding step. Obey safety messages and use the riding step for when
traveling on the unit. Serious injury or death may occur.
