Machine Description
The Model 400A-72SS-117 Hydra-Lift Karrier will pour a drum up to 72” (183
cm) high, measured from the floor to the lowest point of a horizontal drum. It is
designed to lift, transport, and dispense a 55-gallon (210 liter) steel drum 22” to
23.5” (56 to 59.7 cm) in diameter.
The maximum full-drum capacity is 800 Lb. (363 kg). The capacity is derated
to 500 Lb. (227 kg) for a half-full drum. The half-full rating is based on the tilt
mechanism’s capacity for handling an unbalanced bottom-heavy drum.
55/30SS Series Stainless Steel Diameter Adapters
for drum with diameter
smaller than 22” (56 cm). To handle a smaller drum, insert the correct size
Diameter Adapter into the standard drum holder. See Diameter Adapter info at:
https://morsedrum.com/products/diameter-adapters
ONLY Diameter Adapters for drum with 17.5” (44.5 cm) diameter or smaller
have integrated brackets to prevent drum slipping length-ways.
NOTE:
For 30-gallon (114 Liter) PLASTIC drum, insert Diameter Adapter;
AND
install Bracket or Top Rim Clamp to prevent drum slipping.
IMPORTANT:
To prevent 30 to 55 gallon (114 to 210 L) size plastic drum from
slipping, you
MUST
install either Top Rim Clamp Kit or Bracket Assembly Kit.
1. Stainless Steel Bracket Assembly Kit # 4556SS-P
is
required
to handle a RIMLESS plastic drum (figure 2.1),
and is also recommended for a fiber drum. The Bracket
adjusts for a 31” to 39” (79 to 99 cm) tall drum.
You can also handle a rimmed drum with the Bracket installed.
2. Stainless Steel Top Rim Clamp Kit # 4560BSS-P

RIMMED plastic drum (figure 2.2). Install the Top Rim Clamp Kit to
