Donaldson Company, Inc.
55-Gallon Drum Pack
The drum pack is designed to fit a customer-supplied,
standard 55-gallon drum and provides easy access for
dust removal and disposal. A flexible hose connects
the drum cover to the hopper. Placing a pallet under the
drum allows heavier materials to be moved quickly using
a forklift or pallet jack. If a pallet is used, the length of
flexible hose may need to be shortened.
Sharp edge of slide gate may
result in personal injury while
closing the slide gate. Keep hands clear when
operating the slide gate.
