Operating Instructions

1.  Push the Vertical-Lift Drum Pourer to the drum. 

2.  Using “LIFT” control as described in “Machine Description - 

Controls”, position drum holder assembly with back band at 

middle of drum.  With ratchet plate swung open and cinch 

chain hanging from chain hook, push unit until back band rests 

firmly against drum.  Some adjustment to tilt angle of saddle 

may be necessary to ensure band fits flush on drum.  Engage 

floor lock.

 

3.  Attaching drum:

 Drape cinch chain across front of drum and 

engage chain link into slot in ratchet (Figure 3.2).  Turn ratchet 

clockwise to tighten cinch chain.  If ratchet turns until pawl is 

beyond last ratchet tooth, turn ratchet back and slide next link 

into ratchet slot and try tightening again.  Cinch chain must 

be held tightly against drum with pawl engaged securely in 

ratchet teeth. 

4. 

Operate lift function to lift drum clear of floor.  Disengage floor 

lock.  Roll to dispensing location.  NOTE: Do not allow drum to 

impact on floor, pouring station, etc. or spill or damage could 

occur. 

 

  

 

CAUTION 

– Do NOT transport with drum raised.

  

 

 

 

ALWAYS LOWER THE DRUM HOLDER TO LOWEST POSITION BEFORE TRANSPORTING.   

 

 

 

Unit can become unstable when transporting with raised load. 

5.  Lift drum to desired pouring height.  Operate tilt control as described in “Machine Description - Controls” to adjust drum attitude.  

Floor lock should be engaged while dispensing / draining. 

6. 

When dispensing is complete, tilt drum back to upright position.  Disengage floor lock and lower drum to transporting height; about 6” 

(15 cm) off the floor.
