INTROD CTION
he purpose of this manual is to provide you with the
information necessary to use your compactor, and to
perform routine maintenance and trouble-shooting. Years of
experience are behind the design and construction of the
compactor’s structure and hydraulic and electrical systems,
making your Summit compactor one of the most reliable units
available.
Following the guidelines presented in this manual will help
ensure that you get many years of performance out of your
compactor with a minimum of downtime.
Detailed drawings of the construction and design of the
compactor are not included in the manual. If you need
service or repair that is not covered in this manual, please
contact a competent repair service or the factory. Never
modify your compactor without consultation with the factory,
or you will risk compromising safety and / or performance.
Safety is one of our biggest concerns at Summit. We have built
your compactor in compliance with current safety standards.
However, no safety features will protect an operator who is
untrained or unwilling to follow safe operating instructions.
Safety and training are ultimately the responsibility of the
owner of the compactor. Please be sure that no one ever
operates the compactor without first reading this manual
completely and carefully. Strict adherence to safety
requirements will help ensure the safety of operators and the
life and performance of the compactor.

MECHANICAL INSTALLATIONMECHANICAL INSTALLATION
MECHANICAL INSTALLATION
For safety and serviceability, install the equipment with as much clear
workspace around it as is practical. When installin the equipment
near walls, docks, bollards, roof overhan s, or other such surfaces or
fixtures, avoid locatin the equipment so that its access panels cannot
be opened or removed in the event cleanin , maintenance, or service is
required.
If the equipment will be lifted and/or removed from the site for
emptyin , ensure that it is installed with sufficient clearance to allow
removal contractors to lift and remove the equipment safely.
The compactor should be installed by anchorin it or its location uides
on a solid surface such as a minimum 4” thickness of 3000 PSI concrete
reinforced with either #2 rebar on 2’ centers or 6” mesh. If the mountin
surface is asphalt, mount the compactor or its location uides to steel
rails embedded in the pavin or to other solid mountin accepted by
local codes.

and to prevent personnel from bein cau ht in the path
of the movin parts of the compactor, makin sure the
uard or barrier does not itself create a dan er point
and that the compactor cannot be operated if the uard
or barrier is disabled, bypassed, or removed; or by

conveyor, movin floor, or any surface at or below the level
of the floor on which employees walk, provide protection
for employees by limitin access within six feet (6’) of the
ed e of a pit only to authorized employees, train employees
to know and avoid the hazards related to the loadin area,
require that any other companies whose employees use the
pit provide evidence of equivalent trainin , limit access
with si ns such as “RESTRICTED AREA: AUTHORIZED
EMPLOYEES ONLY”, and provide some kind of device to
prevent vehicles from rollin into the pit.
•Prevent the use of compactors that cycle automatically
unless the loadin chamber is not accessible whenever the
compactor cycles.
•Provide uard railin s at least 42” hi h and toeboards
around raised platforms or ramps to be used by employees
for loadin .
•Use the manufacturer’s recommendations when shuttin
down the compactor and lockin out power (OSHA 29 CFR
1910.147, Appendix A recommends procedures for lockin
out power).
•Provide a work area around the compactor that is
sufficient for safe maintenance and cleanin .
•Keep walkin areas around the compactor clean and
unobstructed.
•Inspect safety devices, interlocks, switches, and uards to
be sure they are not disabled, bypassed, or inoperative,
and do not allow the compactor to be operated until all
safety devices operate as desi ned.
•Make sure that no compaction containers are used unless
they can withstand the maximum forces produced by the
compaction system.
•Make sure that only authorized employees 18 years or
older operate, inspect, or work on the compactor.
