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 (fig

-

ure 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 compo-

nent 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 (see Options on pg. 3).
