GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ARO model RM072S-XXX-XX two post lift / ram uses two 3-1/4”
air powered cylinders connected by a steel cross member and
welded to a heavy gauge base plate. It is normally used to raise and
lower a fluid handling pump and follower in and out of a standard
16 gallon / 60 liter drum, or when used as a ram, it can force high
viscosity flowable material into the pump inlet.
When properly secured (see “General Information - Air Operated
Lifts and Rams”), this unit has the ability to raise a pump to clear a
standard 16 gallon / 60 liter drum. The operator is then able to eas-
ily remove the pump from the drum.
This lift / ram uses a rotary 3-way control valve which controls the
air necessary to raise and lower the lift / ram. This unit includes
an auxiliary manual air valve which is used to supply a controlled
amount of air pressure to the bottom of the follower plate. When
the control valve is in the “up” position, a small amount of air pres-
sure applied under the follower plate will help raise the follower
plate, pump and lift / ram by relieving the vacuum (see page 3).
