Controls
The Morse Vertical-Lift Drum Pourer is manually propelled and steered.
There are two functions for the operator to control:
1. “LIFT” and lower function for vertical positioning drum
2. “TILT” function to control the degree of rotation drum
1. LIFT and Lower Function (Figure 3.1)
To raise drum
a. Insert pump lever handle into pump socket.
b. With release valve closed, begin to pump lever handle. Drum will lift.
To lower the drum
a. Open release valve slowly, a part of a turn. Allow drum to descend at controlled rate.
Valve may be reclosed to hold drum at any height.
2. TILT Function
To tilt drum
a. Turn hand crank to turn drum.
b. Before releasing grip on hand crank, pull out crank stop pin to block hand crank from
spinning freely.
c. If drum handler is equipped with MORStop Tilt-Brake, there is no need to use stop
pin. Braking is immediate and self-actuating, without additional steps by operator.
Note: To add MORStop Tilt-Brake to existing drum handler, order Kit 3900-P.
WARNING
- Watch out for pinch points
Stay clear of moving parts. Operator should remain behind the
push handle during the lift operation.
Floor Lock
Floor lock handle is located on left side of push handle. Pulling floor lock handle toward operator until it locks in down position activates
the floor lock. When floor lock is activated it prevents unwanted free wheeling of unit. Floor conditions determine effectiveness of floor
lock. Operator should verify its holding action before depending on it to hold.
Drum Holder Assembly
MORCINCH
TM
Drum Holder assembly (“saddle”) is the component on Vertical-Lift Drum Pourer intended to hold drum. Carriage assembly
moves vertically along mast to position drum holder assembly at correct height to secure drum around it’s middle using cinch chain and
ratchet tightening system. The MORCINCH
TM
Drum Holder accepts accessories to handle plastic drum, fiber drum, or a smaller diameter
drum.
Scale
Scale is simple to use and to read enabling accurate batching by weight. Touch pads include numbers for tare entry. Four load cells
accurately sense weight regardless of drum tilt angle. Battery saving “sleep” mode turns indicator off when scale is not in use.

“T” Type
Intrinsically safe
scale indicator for
use in hazardous
areas.
“N” Type
scale indicator
NOT for
hazardous
environments.
N-Type Scale
Economical general purpose instrument for
use in a variety of weighing applications.
NOT for use in hazardous areas. Powered
by six ordinary alkaline D-cell batteries.
T-Type Scale
Features an intrinsically safe, ultra low
power intensity (ULPI) indicator for use
in many hazardous areas, approved for
all classes, groups in division 2 of N.E.C.
hazardous environment classifications. The
hand pumped or air powered drum handler
with this intrinsically safe weighing system
may be used in many hazard areas where
ordinary electric powered equipment would
be prohibited.
