- Something I had to check out this past summer was Vierkant disposal’s Pac Tech RL. Having never seen one of these in person, I was very happy to have the opportunity. Overall it’s pretty similar to a Mcneilus. This truck would’ve performed better if the throttle advance wasn’t messed up. It only engages when the parking brake is set, and even then it only engages for the sweep function. Wasn’t a huge deal with a one man crew, but if you had a helper that certainly could get annoying depending on how heavy the route is. I believe the driver said that was gonna get adjusted to work for the whole pack cycle eventually. You’ll see the truck doing its 2 commercial trash stops, then hopping to residential trash in Edina. I found this to be very entertaining and I’m incredibly happy with how the video came out. Hope y’all enjoy as much as I do!
Thanks to the driver for making this possible
Nice catch, if I remember correctly Pac-Tech was created by former McNeilus engineers/employees.
I believe you’re correct on that. Glad you enjoyed Dejuan!
Great as always. Thanks for sharing!
Great vid man!! U gotta give it 2 him for making a living!!
Kind of ashame the throttle advance is already "messed-up" on that new of a truck. I've worked on McNeilus rear-loaders before & always found them to have a very fast compactor cycle time! However in my experience with McNeilus rear-load packers I've always had to "back-pack" using the ejection blade to be able to get a decent load on them. Where I work now, we run all New Way rear-loaders & they've been great packers for us!
It is a shame but I’m sure they’ll get it worked out. You’re right about that! The new way I work on packs like a champ. Glad you enjoyed!
