INSTALLATION

There is no separate pressure adjustment on the compactor.

The compactor's supply oil should be directed out the left side of the boom and the return line back on the boom's right side. A combination of hoses and steel tubing is recommended to keep the installation neat and cost effective.

Hoses and tubes should be secured to the carrier boom with steel clamps. Attaching mounting clamps or bulkhead fittings to the ends of the tubes will prevent the tubes from sliding. Check the hoses to ensure they are not being rubbed or pinched by other components.

BTI recommends the use of high-pressure ball valves at the outer end of the stick where the hydraulic lines are disconnected to attach the com- pactor. This allows the line to be disconnected without losing too much oil. BTI does not recommend hydraulic quick disconnects. However, if they are installed, ensure the flush face style is used and then only on the TC91S or smaller models.

Mounting the Compactor

Compactors are easily mounted by doing the following:

Orient the compactor with its hose connections pointed towards the carrier.

Remove the pins and bushings from the compactor top mount bracket (Note: the compactor mounting pins and bushings are custom made to match the carrier stick).

Insert the bushings into the boom and link of the carrier. (If Required).

Place the carrier boom into the compactor top mount bracket.

Push the pins through the bracket and boom (do not force the pins, if they do not enter easily, try realigning).

Insert the pin retainers.

If the carrier is equipped with a Quick Attach system, ensure the device is securely locking in position before operation.
