Machine Description
The Power Tilt Kontrol-Karrier is designed to lift, transport, and dispense a
ribbed 55-gallon (210 liter) steel drum 22.5” (57.2 cm) in diameter.
Maximum full-drum capacity is 1500 Lb. (680 kg). Capacity is derated to
800 Lb. (363 kg) for a half-full drum. Half-full rating is based on the tilt
mechanism’s capacity for handling an unbalanced, bottom-heavy drum.
Important
1. Please read all instructions thoroughly before attempting to operate your new Morse drum handler.
2. When loading, unloading, operating, or maintaining your MORSE drum handler, always use care and good judgment. Maintain
secure footing and a firm hold. Keep hands and loose clothing away from all moving parts. Never allow anyone to be below any part
of a raised drum handler or drum. Read operating instructions and review the pictures in the sales brochure before operation.
3. The 195 Series are a “Group 1 structural and mechanical” below-the-hook lifting device which are covered by the American National
Standard ASME B30.20. The user should comply with all aspects of this standard.
