Controls
The Morse Vertical-Lift Drum Pourer is manually propelled and steered. The drum lift is
powered by a single phase 115V AC motor with a momentary switch, cord and plug.
There are two functions for the operator to control (Figure 3.1).
1. LIFT and Lower Function for vertical positioning of the drum.
a. Plug the motor into a standard 115V power supply.
b. Turn the motor on by holding the momentary switch in the on position. The drum will
lift.
c. Release the momentary switch when the drum is at the desired height.
d. To lower the drum: With the motor off, push in the LOWER handle.
2. TILT Function to control the degree of rotation of the drum.
a. Turn the hand crank to turn the drum.
b. Before releasing your grip on the hand crank, pull out the crank stop pin to block the
hand crank from spinning freely.
c. If the drum handler is equipped with the MORStop Tilt-Brake, there is no need to use
the stop pin. Braking is immediate and self-actuating, without additional steps by the
operator.
Note: To add the MORStop Tilt-Brake to an existing drum handler, order part # 3900-P
for a field installation kit.
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
The scale is simple to use and to read enabling accurate batching by weight. The 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.
Display weight to 0.1 Lb. with accuracy of +/-0.2 %
Scale components will be installed and calibrated before leaving the Morse factory. However, the rigors of
transportation may change scale calibration. To assure proper accuracy, the user should employ local scale service
personnel to check the function and calibration of the scale. Cost of on-site calibration is not included in the selling
price.
N-Type Scale
Economical general purpose instrument for use in a variety of weighing applications. NOT for use in hazardous areas.
Powered by five ordinary alkaline D-cell batteries
