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. The
maximum full-drum capacity is 1500 Lb. (680 kg). The capacity is derated to
800 Lb. (363 kg) for a half-full drum. The half-full rating is based on the tilt
mechanism’s capacity for handling an unbalanced bottom-heavy drum.
Options
A smaller diameter drum can be handled with the correct size 55/30 Series Diameter Adaptor installed (see• Diameter Adaptor
literature).
The• Bracket Assembly (Part # 4556-P) is required to handle a plastic drum. It is also recommended to more securely handle a
berdrum.YoucanusetheBracketAssemblywitha55-gallon(210liter)plastic,steelorberdrum.Thebraceattopandbottomof
the drum prevent it from slipping lengthways through the drum holder. It adjusts for a drum 31” to 37” (79 to 94 cm) tall.
