| 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 Top of Page |

|
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. |
