Machine Description
The 515 Series Scale-Equipped Vertical-Lift Drum Pourer will pour a drum at up to 60”
high, measured from the floor to the lowest point of a horizontal drum. It is designed to lift,
transport, and dispense a ribbed 55-gallon steel drum 22.5” in diameter, as well as a fiber
drum between 22” and 23.5” in diameter. The maximum full-drum capacity is 800 Lb. The
capacity is derated to 500 Lb. for a half-full drum. The half-full rating is based on the tilt
mechanism’s capacity for handling an unbalanced bottom-heavy drum.
Drum Holder Assembly
The MORcinch drum holder assembly (or “saddle assembly”) is the component
on the Vertical-Lift Drum Pourer that is intended to hold the drum. The carriage
assembly moves vertically along the mast, to position the MORcinch drum
holder assembly designed to secure a 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 a smaller diameter
drum.

The
•
Bracket Assembly
(Part # 4556-P) is
required
to handle a
plastic drum without a top rim (see figure 2.1). It is also recommended
to more securely handle a fiber drum. You can use the Bracket
Assembly with a 55-gallon plastic, steel or fiber drum. The brace
at top and bottom of the drum prevent it from slipping lengthways
through the drum holder. It adjusts for a drum 31” to 39” tall.
The
•
Top Rim Clamp
(Part # 4560-P) grips the upper rim of your drum to
prevent it from slipping through the drum holder (see figure 2.2). To handle
a 55-gallon plastic drum with top rim, you
must
install either the Bracket
Assembly or the Top Rim Clamp. You can use the Top Rim Clamp with a
55-gallon plastic, steel or fiber drum with suitable top rim.
