  • Page 5 (Installation Instructions, continued) ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION The enclosure of the electrical panel is fabricated to carry a NEMA 4 rating. The factory fabricated the electrical panel to operate with the supply voltage marked on the factory data tag. Use only locally- qualified electricians or electrical contractors to open or perform work on the enclosure in order to bring the correct incoming electrical power to the electrical panel.
  • Page 6: Safety Guidelines

    Your Summit compactor has been labeled at the factory with decals covering basic operational and safety instructions. Your local codes may require additional decals or labels.
  • Page 7 Standard for the design, manufacture, installation, and operation of compactors. Compliance with the Standard is voluntary. Summit Equipment, Inc. complies insofar as it is able to in the design and manufacture of the compactor, and recommends that employers / owners of compactors comply with ANSI Z245.2- 1997, section 6.1, as paraphrased and summarized in the...
  • Page 8 (Safety Guidelines, ANSI employer responsibilities, continued) • Give complete training to employees before allowing them to operate, clean, or work on the compactor, including training in procedures recommended by the manufacturer. Keep records including the names of employees and the respective dates of their training.
  • Page 9 (Safety Guidelines, ANSI employer responsibilities, continued) • If the compactor will be loaded by an in-floor (pit) conveyor, moving floor, or any surface at or below the level of the floor on which employees walk, provide protection for employees by limiting access within six feet (6’) of the edge of a pit only to authorized employees, train employees to know and avoid the hazards related to the loading area, require that any other companies whose employees use the...
  • Page 10 (Safety Guidelines, ANSI employer responsibilities, continued) Summit Equipment, Inc. also recommends employees who work with compactors comply with ANSI Z245.2-1997, section 6.2, as paraphrased and summarized in the following items: • Use all the safety features and devices provided with the compactor.
  • Page 11 (Safety Guidelines, general, continued) • Lock out power to the compactor whenever inspecting or working on it in a way that might expose you to moving parts. Be able to identify the type and amount of power the compactor uses, understand the potential dangers, and know how to control the power.
  • Page 12 (Safety Guidelines, general, continued) Even after the electrical power is removed, remove residual hydraulic pressure before getting in the path of any moving parts or disconnecting any hoses or connections. Never work or reach inside of guards unless the compactor is completely disabled, as set forth above.
  • Page 13: Routine Preventive Maintenance

    ROUTINE PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE our Summit Equipment, Inc. compactor was engineered to provide years of trouble-free performance as long as routine basic maintenance is performed on a regular basis. A small investment in routine maintenance will yield a large return in equipment longevity.
  • Page 14 (Routine Preventive Maintenance, continued) CLEANLINESS CLEANLINESS CLEANLINESS CLEANLINESS Many compactor installations are dirty or dusty. The compactor and its surroundings should be kept as clean as the environment will reasonably allow. Clean garbage, trash, or other spillage from in and around the compactor.
  • Page 15 (Routine Preventative Maintenance, continued) Use only approved hydraulic fluid, an AW-type at ISO 32 viscosity, or equivalent. Contaminants in the hydraulic oil will greatly accelerate wear on expensive components of the hydraulic system (cylinder, pump, valves, etc.). Once per year or every 4,000 operating hours, whichever comes first, the reservoir (tank) air vent filter should be cleaned or replaced.
  • Page 16 (Routine Preventative Maintenance, continued) Inspect door hinges, ratchets, and latch mechanisms, and lubricate as necessary. Lubricate and check the security of the pins on the cylinder clevis ends. Lubricate grease zerk fittings provided at xx. ELECTRICAL ELECTRICAL ELECTRICAL ELECTRICAL Vibration can loosen connections over time. Check to be sure that all panels and control boxes are properly covered and latched.
  • Page 17 (Routine Preventative Maintenance, continued) INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE RECORDS INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE RECORDS INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE RECORDS INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE RECORDS Those who own and manage the operation of the compactor are responsible for establishing and maintaining a program of regular inspection and service, to ensure that all parts of the compactor continue to function as designed, to ensure that all safety devices remain in place and functional, and to ensure that safe practices are being followed.

Open the loading door, enter the correct code into the keypad (if so equipped), and try to start the DANGER! If the compactor will start and run DANGER! If the compactor will start and run compactor.
  • Page 21 B. Lubricate the grease zerk fittings provided at 3 points on each of the sliding shoes (supporting the compaction platen as it slides up and down). On the S-V2 and S-V3, there is one sliding shoe on each side of the compactor for a total of six grease zerks..
  • Page 22 (Routine Preventative Maintenance, continued) D. Obtain access to the power unit components by removing the bolts holding the upper cabinet doors closed. With the cylinders fully retracted, confirm hydraulic fluid level. If level is low: 1. Top off the reservoir with ISO 32 AW-type hydraulic fluid 2.
  • Page 23 (Routine Preventative Maintenance, continued) platen has not reached the bottom limit switch, then it may be that the container bin is full but the pressure switch is not sending its signal to the controls to shut the compactor off. Locate and confirm proper function of the pressure switch.
  • Page 24: Compacting Process

    Depending on the type of material, your Summit compactor will put from 3 to 6 times as much material into the container as its capacity. A container with a capacity of 2 cubic yards of loose waste will hold 6 to 12 cubic yards of compacted waste.
  • Page 25 (Compacting Process, continued) 3. Close the loading door. 4. Using the keypad as instructed in the CONTROL chapter below (if so equipped), enable the controls. Press and release the "START" button. The compactor's power unit will start, and the platen will travel down against the material before reversing itself to its uppermost position where the power unit will shut down.
  • Page 26: Controls

    CONTROLS Your compactor will be equipped with some or all of the following controls. Note the function of the controls that apply to your compactor so that you can obtain the best safety and performance possible. Red, mushroom-headed "STOP" button. Depressing this button will immediately shut the compactor down, in any mode, and in any cycle.
  • Page 27 (Controls, continued) Emergency Ram Control. Your compactor is provided with a switch for the purpose of moving the compaction platen up or down manually. Since the "Emergency Ram Control" is intended for use in an emergency, it will not operate unless the "STOP" button is pressed and left in its "in" position. I will also not operate unless the green LED indicator on the keypad is lit, indicating that the controls are enabled.
  • Page 28 Master Code and a User Code. The User Code is 1948. Anyone possessing the Master Code can change both the Master Code and the User Code. The Master Code is available to the owner of the compactor from Summit Equipment, Inc., telephone (208) 773-3885; ask for Scott MacDonald.

    BASIC TROUBLE SHOOTING PROBLEM POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS =============== ==================================== Motor does not run Your compactor may be equipped with safety inter- locks on its door. Make sure they are closed and secured. Read this manual to ensure you are using controls properly. (Could the “STOP” button be pressed?) Ensure that power of the correct voltage is getting to the compactor.
  • Page 30 (Basic Trouble-Shooting, continued) PROBLEM POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS =============== ==================================== Compactor runs Confirm correct fluid type and level. Confirm slow or sluggish Confirm correct voltage. Check for hydraulic leaks. Pump or cylinder or hydraulic flow problems; call for competent service. Hydraulic oil level Inspect for leaks around hoses, fittings, is always low.
