Mixing in a Closed Drum Means Less Hazards

Using a Morse Drum Rotator eliminates spills, splashing of dangerous
contents on workers, and risk of contamination. Now you can get the benefits
of mixing inside closed shipping drums and have the machine do the work
of loading and unloading itself! Morse 310 Series models accept the drum
upright at floor level. The user controls hydraulic tilting action that raises the
drum into position for rotating. A second valve allows the operator to start
and stop the hydraulic motor that drives rotation. You minimize time, labor
and operating cost by eliminating extra moves required for getting drum into
mixing position. Rotate various sized drums, weighing up to 800 Lb. (363 kg)
at 5 to 20 RPM.

Install all Morse Rotators in accordance with OSHA requirements for
enclosure and safety interlock, etc. so the rotator automatically turns off
when enclosure door is opened. One way to accomplish this is with a Morse
enclosure with safety interlock.
For OSHA compliance, see
OSHA subpart O.1910.212(a)(4)
“Barrels, containers, and drums.
Revolving drums, barrels, and
containers shall be guarded by
an enclosure which is interlocked
with the drive mechanism, so that
the barrel, drum, or container
cannot revolve unless the guard
enclosure is in place.”

Secure your drum in holder

Power connections and motor
controls must comply with
applicable codes.

Powered lift and rotate

Turn the motor on to activate the hydraulics. Raise
the drum to the top position by raising the TILT
control valve. To begin rotating, raise the ROTATE
control valve.
Load drum into the rotator with the drum holder in
the lowered position, the hinged ratchet plate and
the top clamps both open. The Morse Model 152
Drum Truck is shown loading the drum into the
rotator. Can also load with Model 81 Drum Spotter
or Model 92 Below-Hook Drum Lifter (inset).

Secure drum in the rotator using the cinch chain
and ratchet, and tightening the top clamps
(inset).

* Half-full Capacity is an indication of the capacity
for tilting an unbalanced, bottom-heavy drum. A
partially full drum with an unbalanced and shifting
load is harder to tilt than a full drum.
