Ram Guide System:
The packing ram is supported by specially formulated cast iron shoes which ride on replaceable wear strips. This exclusive design protects the charge box floor from the full force of the packing ram, extending its life and dramatically reducing compaction-robbing friction.
Side-Mount Power Unit
- Side-Mounted Power Unit for ease-of-maintenance – eliminates the need to go inside the compactor body for servicing.
- Limit Switch and all other parts of the power unit are easily accessible for ease-of-maintenance.
- Reset Button for the Motor Starter is also located on the outside, which eliminates entry into the control box
Advanced Control System:
The RJ-225 HD features a Control Station with advanced, simplified 2-button control system. It is key-operated, fully automatic and contained in a weatherproof NEMA 4 enclosure. Connected to the power pack with 13’ of sealtite, the controls can be located for operator convenience.
