The waste compactor is placed inside a concrete trench positioned un-
der a metallic lid which functions hydraulically. This structure, in its as-
cent moveme face are the input towers linked to the hydraulic platform.
The surface input towers where the waste containers are to be placed
are connected to the hydraulic platform, at the surface. These surface
input towers have an opening where the residues are placed; they are
then impelled downwards into the compactor due to gravity.

Operating Method
Opening
In order to install the Surface input tower and the remaining equipment it is
and closing necessary to unlock the drum.
of the drum The drum has been locked by two umbrako M10 bolts present on both sides
of the Surface input tower. In order to unlock the bolts an unbrako M10 key
porta comercial is necessary. The bolt must be taken away and the drum is able to rotate
Surface input tower’s rear view
freely.
parafuso The user will find it easy to use the Bigtainer Surface input tower.
The drum’s opening will normally be shut with an electronic lock, it will open
only when someone with the key places waste into the deposit.
The user inserts, rotates the lock key and press the button that opens the
rotating drum. Moves the rotating drum and places the residues in its inte-
rior. After placing the residues the drum closes, the waste bag falls into the
compactor and automatically starts the compactor cycles.
Stop Control
All movements occur by means of continued action command and the per-
son responsible for the operation is able to see the entire area where the
equipment is moving. In order to stop the equipment from moving, simply
let go of the manual control.
Danger
Crushing of the inferior limbs during the closure movement of the me-
tallic structure lid.
General Arrangement
The hydraulic circuit has been perceived to guarantee that the lid does not
fall inopportunely.
The lid’s movement is done by means of a continued action control ant the
person responsible for the operation has to see the entire work area.
Danger
People might get near the equipment during the collection operation.
General Arrangement
When the compactor is removed from the equipment to perform the
collection operation, the equipment has a safety platform. The truck
used for the collection has light and sound signalisation that should be
active during the operation to attract people’s attention.
Danger
Throwing of pressure fluid in case the hoses or junctions breach.
General Arrangement
In case the hoses breach the safety valves close down and the fluid stops. The
fluid inside the damaged hose is projected to the bottom of the equipment’s
trench.
Danger
Existence of people over the equipment during the opening of the me-
tallic structure.
General Arrangement
All movements are executed with a continued action remote control and the
person responsible for the operation is able to visualize the entire work area.
If it is necessary to stop the opening operation due to the proximity of people
it is enough to let go of the accelerator.
Safety signals
The anchoring of the metallic structure of the surface input towers and waste
containers for transport in trucks should be executed with suitable bands
used around the mentioned equipments and these must be spaced in such a
way that they do not suffer the vibration during the transport.
1. Loading the equipment with the crane truck. According to the truck’s ca-
pacity the loading will be done in 1, 2 or more times. Special attention will be
necessary in order to prevent damage to the hydraulic system elements.
6. Adjustment of the height with screw threads starting by the lowest part
of the street in case of inclination. Afterwards the part with more inclination
is adjusted. In every case the screws should be adjusted over a plane surface
using the necessary resistance elements and sufficient capacities.
7. Height and alignment adjustment verifying the stiffness and the stability
of the supports in order to prevent any movements subsequent to the final
adjustment.
8. The building construction company will make the pre concrete process.
Before using the concrete a final verification will be done because once this
phase is completed it will not be possible to correct the placement mistakes.
The concrete will be placed with attention so that it will not fall over the visi-
ble area or over the area of the finishing touches. In case some concrete falls,
it should be immediately removed before it dries.
9. Confirmation of the pre concrete process.
10. Placement of the surface input towers with the help of angles and plates.
This placement is done with a worker inside the trench and one outside that
smoothly introduces the surface input tower into its place. Once the surface
input tower is supported over the angles the worker inside it places the four
screws and the corresponding nuts.
11. Connexion of the 380V hydraulic nucleus to the electric power and to the
hydraulic cylinders of the platform.
13. Placement of the surface input tower with the help of angles and plates.
This placement is done with a worker inside the platform and one outside
that smoothly introduces the surface input tower into its place. Once the sur-
face input tower is supported over the angles the worker inside it places the
four screws and the corresponding nuts.
14. Adjustment of the placed surface input tower with the help of a level in
such a manner that the superior edge is horizontal and the lateral edges are
vertical. The adjustment will be done with the nuts that fix the surface input
towers’ support structure.
15. Setting the silicone in the connexion joint of the surface input towers
with the ring. Sealing of the surface input tower’s drum and placement of the
plate with the CE series number and the signalisation.
16. The building construction company places the pavement using cement,
glue or resin. The platform’s thread joints, to open it externally in case of
breakdown, will not be covered.
17. Cleaning the platform interior and removing the residues of the construc-
tion work.
18. Setting the waste compactor inside the platform and connexion of the
electric plug in to the waste compactor.
19. Connexion of all the electronic cables to the surface input tower locker.
The only necessary operation to set the equipment to work is the opening of
the surface input towers’ drums. The drums of the surface input towers are
opened by unscrewing the existing screw in the tower that fixes the drum.
(see Characteristics of the surface input towers).

PROBLEM SOLVING
Oil dripping in the hydraulic sleeves. The bushes should be tighten with the corresponding tight-
ness wrench screw.
Equipment ascends but does not descend. The equipment’s descending flow regulator valve existent
in the hydraulic nucleus should be rotated in such a manner
that the oil can move. If the valve is tightened the oil will not
move and the equipment will not descend.
The descent velocity movement of the equipment is always
regulated by the flow regultor valve.
Equipment stops its motion. If there is an excess of oil flow entering the hydraulic circuit, it
might be that the security valve is activated.
After verifying the oil flow, the ascent movement should be
made in order to deactivate the valve, later the equipment
can be lowered.
Breaking of a hose and stopping of an equipment. If there is a breach in the hydraulic hose the security valve is
activated and the equipment stops.
In case there is a breach in a hose and the security valve
is activated, Zibi should be immediately contacted in order
to replace the hose.
The surface input tower’s drum come out of the axle. The screw or bolt should be replaced and welded to the
drum’s interior.
The surface input tower’s drum does not open. The drum’s sealing screws of the surface input tower
should be rotated. See Surface Input Towers.
