Hoppers |
 |
The Side Feed
and
Rear Feed Hoppers have sides that are 42" high with the exception of the
12" rear panel on the 3-sided rear feed option. All sides are constructed of
3/16" plate.
The 3-Sided Side Feed Hopper
is designed for loading material from ground level by either hand or forklift
and is available in either left or right side loading.
See ANSI Ground Feed
Installation guidelines. |
 |
The 4-sided Rear Feed Hopper
is for dock loading applications and eliminates the need for an access gate,
interlock switch, and the "hold to run, release to stop" button on
Mark-Costello's self-contained compactor/containers. Tread Plate with hand & toe
rails may be required on some compactors. |
 |
The 3-Sided Rear Feed Hopper
with Hinged Access Gate is designed for dock loading applications and is
used with treadplate top cover and hand & toe rails
to conform to O.S.H.A. and A.N.S.I. standards. Please confirm dock height with
your Mark-Costello Regional Sales Manager before placing your order. The Hinged
Access Gate along with the Access Interlock Switch is included in the rear feed
hopper assembly. In addition, a Sustained Manual Pressure Control can be
furnished with the packer. |

Access Interlock Switch
|
 |
The Access Interlock Switch
is mounted on the security door frame or access gate through which refuse is
fed into the packer. It prevents operation of the packer while the door or gate
is open. |

Treadplate Top Cover |
 |
The Treadplate Top Cover
is secured to the top of the packer in lieu of the standard cover. The diamond
pattern treadplate is available in either 700 lb. or 8000 lb. capacity.
For the larger capacity plate, additional reinforcements are added for support
and a third pair of legs is added to the packer. |
 |
The Expanded Metal Steps/Platform with Hand & Toe Rails
for the VIP is used with rear or side feed 8 yd. Vert-I-Pack applications which
conform to A.N.S.I. and O.S.H.A. requirements. The expanded metal steps maximize
traction by allowing mud or snow to pass through the grating. |

Hinged Breaker Bar Retainer Teeth |
 |
The Hinged Breaker Bar Retainer
Teeth help prevent clutter in the charge box caused by "memory" and springback
of some types of material such as corrugated. As the ram retracts, the teeth
engage the material to keep it in the container. Teeth are hinged so that
material can pass beneath them without undue stress on the breaker bar. |

Container Guides |
 |
The Container Guide
is constructed of two pieces of 3 1/2" x 3 1/2" angle with an overall length of
4' 9 1/2". It is designed for anchoring to the concrete pad and greatly
facilitates alignment of the compactor to the packer.
15' Container Guides are
recommended for use with self-contained compactors. |

Cart Dumpers |
 |
Mark-Costello's Self-Contained
and Stationary Compactors can be fitted with Ground Level or Dock Level
Cart/Container Dumpers. The compactor mounted Container Dumper for 90 gallon
containers (shown at left on an RJ-88SC) increases convenience and productivity.
Container Dumpers can be configured to fit a variety of cart styles and
applications. |

This cart dumper is mounted to a
stationary compactor for a ground feed application. |
