Packing Refuse in the Body
When some containers have already been unloaded in the hopper, the packer of the

will help you clear the hooper area by packing the refuse in the body.
Note: Labrie Environmental Group recommends to perform this task while you
move from one collection point to another.
To pack refuse in the body:
1. Turn on the hydraulic system. See “Pump Switch” on page 9.
Note: If the side door (or hopper door) is open, the hydraulic pump won’t work. The
side door MUST be closed in order to start the hydraulic pump.

3. Press the green button to start the packer cycle. See “Green Button” on page 12.
