vehicle. If
your unit is equipped with this option, we suggest you to use it only for bulky items. In many cases,
unnecessary use will slow down the operation. Bulky items can be maintained in place with the
crusher panel while the packer crushes them.
The crusher panel can be lowered upon the refuse to prevent it from popping up in front of the
packing ram, thus increasing the compaction effect during the load breaking sequence.
To help during the unloading process, a good amount of garbage should be left in front of the packer
and under the lowered crusher panel as you finish your collection route. Once the body is raised at
landfill, you can activate the packing ram to help clear whatever could be jammed in the hopper. This
procedure can also be done without the crusher panel.
Crusher Panel Up Switch (optional)
