1.
Site Selection:
Careful consideration should be given to the site selected for the K-PAC
™
Compactor.
2.
Concrete Pad:
Ample room should be provided to disconnect, maneuver and move container
to an area where a front loader can empty.
3.
Drain:
For good housekeeping practices, it is recommended that a drain beneath the platform be
incorporated in the pad or room to allow for wash-down, etc.
4.
Anchoring:
The compactor
should be anchored to concrete pad using 3/4” diameter anchor
bolts. The use of ITW Red Head Trubolt Wedge Anchors or equivalent anchor bolts is recommended. To
allow for manufacturing variations, it is best if the concrete holes are drilled after prelocating the compactor
in its desired location. Holes in compactor leg plates are 13/16” diameter to permit use of a 3/4” concrete drill
bit. When compactor has been permanently located, SHIM TO COMPENSATE FOR CONCRETE PAD
UNEVENNESS, and anchor bolts set, tighten all nuts securely.
Figure 7
It is very important that the shimming is done carefully so as not to twist
the compactor, affecting life and/or operation.
