RECORD OF SATISFACTORY CONDITION (THE “RECORD”)
Thoroughly inspect the carrier before putting it into service. Record the condition and appearance of each of the
frame members, fasteners, and casters/wheels. Thoroughly photograph the carrier from multiple angles. Include close
range photographs of all labels, fasteners, and the drum gripping mechanism. Add the photographs to the record.
Collate all photographs and writings into a single file. This file is a record of the carrier in satisfactory condition.
Visually inspect all parts of the unit at least once per month. Compare your observations to the Record to determine
whether the rack is in satisfactory condition. Do not use the carrier unless it is in satisfactory condition. Purely
cosmetic changes, like damaged paint or powdercoat, are not changes from satisfactory condition. However, touchup
paint should be applied as soon as damage occurs.
USING THE DRUM LIFTER (ALL MODELS)
DCR-series drum carriers are designed to handle 55-gallon steel, plastic, and fiber drums with lids. Three models,
DCR-880-M, DCR-880-H, and DCR-880-H-HP, are manually operated. Model DCR-880-M uses a ratcheting jack that
raises and lowers the carriage. The drum carriage of models DCR-880-H and DCR-880-H-HP is driven by a hydraulic
cylinder extended and retracted by a foot pump.
DCR-880-M (Mechanical Ratcheting Jack)
NOTE: For the jack to operate optimally, move the handle all-the-way up and all-the-way down with each
stroke. “Short jacking” occurs when the handle is not moved through its full range. Short jacking damages the
teeth of the jack slide and can also damage the ratchet mechanism.
1. To raise the carriage: The direction selector must be in the “UP” position (see “Ratchet direction selector” below;
selector shown in UP position). Raise the jack handle and press it down until you hear a click. Move the handle
back-and-forth until the carriage rises to the necessary elevation.
2. To lower the carriage: Press the direction selector down. Then, move the jack handle up and down until the
carriage reaches the desired height.
DCR-880-H and DCR-880-H-HP (Hydraulic Foot Pump)
Press down on the treadle to extend the cylinder. When the treadle is released it returns to its starting position.
Pump the treadle to raise the carriage and elevate the drum. To lower the carriage, step on the release lever on the
side of the foot pump. Pressing the release lever opens a lowering valve. When the valve opens, the cylinder
retracts and causes the carriage to lower. Descent can be stopped at any time simply by taking your foot off of the
release lever. The carriage will maintain position until either the release lever or the treadle is pressed again.
