Love the extra manual packing at the end. The ram sure starts breaking down and ripping into the bags which ultimately give out and the waste turns to pulp. That hoodie did very well hanging in there for the full video. Great job, keep up the good work.
Yeah, its funny. The ram itself is blunt, which pops the bags but doesn't rip them open. What does is actually the friction of the material passing over itself. Some packer bodies have "retention teeth" welded on the underside of the breaker bar above the opening going into the body. You can see them on the Labrie here: th-cam.com/video/Pm6N861iLtI/w-d-xo.htmlsi=vbLE_2gItbGJwH48&t=1735 They can even be hinged like Marathon does on their static compactors to further help ensure the material only moves in one direction. But McNeilus does not, so that's why you see the material on top being pushed back into the hopper area. I'm going to rant a bit more here: While I love the ZR arm, I actually don't like the hopper design on the McNeilus, but it's what my company bought and will likely continue to buy (everything at our shop is McNeilus), so it's what I'm forced to deal with. I don't like having a single piece follower and being forced to rely on gravity to slide the material off. I'd much rather have a segmented roll up follower that retracts under a scraper at the front of the hopper to force the material off the follower. McNeilus is even worse with this because they thought in their wisdom to have the slope be inconsistent and have some bolt heads protrude up right around the hinge between the follower and the ram, just to make it even easier for material to get stuck on it. /facepalm I probably will never get the opportunity, but given the chance, I'd really like to try out a Labrie with the new alley "ZR like" arm. I've driven a Labrie before and really liked the hopper design, and since they bought out Pendpac, they now have a model with an arm I know I like as well. Seems like the best of both worlds. I'd also like to try one of the auger trucks, but I'm hesitant to say the New Way Rotopac because I know from experience that offset loading arms suck, and tilt to dumps are dangerous on the uneven ground of a landfill. Probably would haft to be Heil's (rebranded Bolvin Revolution) Revamp then. That latest video of that Republic guy with it on the electric Battle Motors chassis looked fairly speedy. th-cam.com/video/jHjl3gS0SiI/w-d-xo.html
@@SCSITerminator Thank you for your reply! You're right, friction of materials is a way more accurate way of describing it. Maybe you could ask your workshop to add some "teeth" to the breaker bars? But then again, where's the fun in that? Yes, I've seen in some videos some rather bad designs where rivets and other things on the rams cause debris to get stuck; it doesn't take something to be sticking up very much for it to get caught, and the other issue too is it pulls stuff back out. And your truck does have a rather big lip at the front of the ram, ideal for this. It's almost like they designed it to be bad lol. Relaying on gravity isn't a bad idea as long as the design has a big enough drop, which many of these pendulum hoppers seem to be lacking. I guess they are good for not needing to clean out behind the ram/blade each day; self-cleaning. It would be interesting to see how an auger rubbish truck performs long term with mixed waste. I've seen some videos of trucks with augers and seen in person some stationary compactors with augers. They sure do seem to mince through the waste. Outside of the truck design issues, do you enjoy the job? I think it would be good fun! Thank you for your comments once again and posting great videos! Hopefully one day you'll get to drive the perfect truck of your dreams.
@@trashyraccoon2615 I sort of do. I love when I see houses with a lot of garbage out for pickup and I take their garbage. I just tool like 8 bags of garbage from this one house this morning, I could've taken more because they had 2 of the 96 gallon cans that were overflowing but I didn't make enough space in my car. Otherwise I would've just emptied all their garbage

Best hopper action vids on TH-cam!
Thanks for sharing!

Looks like a sweatshirt and other clothes riding on top of everything in the right corner. The packer just shoved everything under it.
I'd like to see more clothes
11:15 black shoes burst from nasty rip bag.
22:40 black high heels.
23:00 black sandal.
Loved seeing the diapers get packed
22.45 high heels devoured!
How many tons?
Which state?
I love seeing all the garbage people throw away
Me too. I live a very trashy lifestyle
@@trashyraccoon2615 I sort of do. I love when I see houses with a lot of garbage out for pickup and I take their garbage.

@@trashyraccoon2615 I don't think the people really care who takes the garbage away, just as long as it goes away
@@trashyraccoon2615 I even got a couple unopened bags of chips that "expired" a week ago that they threw in the garbage
@@robertwalton1054 Some people definitely care! I’ve had the cops called on me. Just be careful out there playing amateur garbageman! lol
please will you save clothes like the black and red in the right corner for me please??
I saw a spider on the compactor, i wonder if he escaped!
It's doing ok, I just got a call from it!
Bonjour a vous comment vous savez kan ces remplir votre benne
