Machine Description

The Model 410-125 Heavy-Duty 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 or fiber drum 22” to 23.5” (56 

to 59.7 cm) in diameter.

The maximum full-drum capacity is 1200 Lb. (544 kg).  The 

capacity is derated to 600 Lb. (272 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.
