Interlock Systems
Different interlock systems have been installed on the M

to avoid possible injuries and to
prevent components from colliding with each other.
Crusher Panel Interlock
The optional crusher panel is to be used only for bulky items. Bulky items can be crushed down with
the crusher panel while the packer pushes them in the body. In order to enable the crusher panel, the
packer must be fully retracted.
To operate the crusher panel, refer to “Crusher Panel Down Switch (optional)” on page 68 and
