WARNING
- Watch Out for Pinch Points
Stay clear of moving parts. Operator should
remain behind the push handle during the lift
operation.
Floor Lock
The screw-down floor lock is located on the base of the
tower (figure 3.1). Turning the floor lock clockwise until it
locks in the down position activates the floor lock. When
the floor lock is activated it prevents unwanted free wheeling
of the unit. Floor conditions determine the effectiveness of
the floor lock. The operator should verify its holding action
before depending on it to hold.
MORCINCH Drum Holder Assembly
The drum holder assembly (or “saddle assembly”) is the
component on the Hydra-Lift Karrier that is intended to
hold the drum. The MORCINCH drum holder assembly is
designed to secure a standard ribbed 55-gallon steel drum
around it’s middle using a cinch chain and ratchet tightening
system. The MORCINCH drum holder accepts accessories
for handling a plastic drum, a fiber drum, or smaller diameter
drums.
