• Capacity:
• 800 Lb. (363 kg) for a full drum
• 500 Lb. (227 kg) 1/2-full drum*
* Half-full rating is based on tilt
mechanism's capacity for handling a
bottom heavy drum. A partially full
drum with unbalanced and shifting
load is harder to tilt than a full drum.
Stainless Steel models are often ordered
for food and pharmaceutical applications.
A  Fully loaded drums are easily handled by one person with the
Morse Hydra-Lift Karrier. 55 gallon (210 liter) steel drums weighing
up to 800 Lb. can be lifted, moved, tilted for controlled pouring or
draining, and returned to the storage area with minimal physical effort.
Other drum sizes may be handled when using available accessories.
 Several standard models offer a range of maximum pouring heights.
“Specials” can be made for extra lift, more reach, greater straddle
width, non-standard containers, etc.
Each Hydra-Lift Karrier Features:
Heavy-duty hydraulic ram with a built-in flow
control for a uniform, controlled speed of descent
with even the heaviest drum.
Welded rectangular steel tube framework.
Easy maneuverability on two 8” (20.3 cm) durable
polyolefin wheels and two 4” (10.2 cm) swivel
casters hidden under the base.
A screw down floor lock.
You can raise and control dispensing as necessary. Increase pouring
angle for full discharge, reduce to control the pour rate or reverse to
stop pouring and deliver partial drum contents.
Manual-Lift Models have hydraulic hand pump
with variable release valve for drum lift.
Manual-Tilt Models have covered tilt gears with
30:1 reduction to make pouring your drum simple
and easy.
Material is discharged straight forward directly from the drum.
Faucets, pipe and valve extensions, etc. may be attached to the drum,
but the ability to pour straight from the drum with variable lift and pour
angles are important differences from chute type dumpers.
See power lift and power tilt options below.
Though often used for lifting and pouring, the Hydra-Lift Karrier
can be used in various ways such as lifting drums on or off scales,
platforms, conveyors or trucks, moving drums to or from storage,
charging high tanks and positioning drums of parts for hand access
at work stations.
