SECTION 7.0
INSTALLATION & REMOVAL
7.1 Carrier Compatibility
Ho-Pac models 300, 300B, 500 & 500B, are
designed to fit small excavators. Attach the
compactor only to carriers having adequate
load-carrying capabilities. Carrier weight
ranges, listed in Section 5.1, are intended
as a guideline. Factors such as stick length,
counterweights, undercarriage, etc., affect
the carrier’s lifting capacity and must be
taken into consideration prior to mounting
the compactor. Always adhere to the safe
working load established by the carrier
manufacturer to assure stable carrier
operation.
The hydraulic power needed to operate the
Ho-
Pac is provided by the carrier’s hydraulic
system. If the carrier is not equipped with an
auxiliary circuit, contact Allied for an
installation kit. Follow the installation
instructions provided with the hydraulic kit.
7.2 Testing and Adjusting
IMPORTANT
Do not operate the Ho-Pac beyond its
performance limits. Exceeding the
specifications listed in Section 5.1 can be
dangerous to the operator and result in
expensive repair costs.
Precautions must be taken before using the
Ho-Pac to ensure the compactor is not
damaged. Before the Ho-Pac is used on a
carrier for the first time, the auxiliary circuit
must be tested and, if necessary, adjusted.
By following these steps, the Ho-Pac will
provide efficient operation, production rates
and dependable service life.
Prior to mounting the Ho-Pac, test the
carrier’s hydraulic circuit. Measure the
oil flow and pressure.
Use a flow meter that has been
calibrated to obtain accurate flow
measurements of the carrier’s auxiliary
circuit.
Compare your test results with the
specifications in Section 5.1.
Optimal performance is achieved only
when the oil flow from the carrier is
properly matched to the size of the
motor installed on the compactor.
Identify which motor and valve package
option is installed on the Ho-Pac before
any adjustments are made. Refer to
Section 12 for information on motor and
valve identification.
Record the results of your flow and
pressure measurements in the spaces
provided on the Warranty Registration
Form.
