Diesel side loader Liberty®

ride-onfor the recycling industryloading

Product overview
The Liberty Continuous Pack side loader pairs the Continuous Pack body with the Python® automated lift arm to provide fast, reliable residential and commercial refuse collection with optimized payload performance.

Key summary
The Liberty Continuous Pack side loader is an automated sideloader available in multiple body sizes (approximately 16–32 cubic yards). It integrates the Continuous Pack body and the patented Big Swing Paddle Packer with the Python® arm for continuous loading, reduced wear components and extended service life.

Main product benefits

• Continuous Pack body: patented Big Swing Paddle Packer continuously sweeps the hopper so there is no need to stop and pack the load.
• Python® automated lift arm: fast ~8‑second lift cycle and ~9 ft reach for efficient pickups in constrained environments.
• Optimized-weight construction: body engineered to maximize payload within weight limits.
• Serviceability: packer cylinder located under the body and ground-level grease/access points for simplified maintenance.
• Connected-ready: factory provision for telematics, camera integration and radar/collision-avoidance packages.

Optional & available systems

• 3rd Eye digital packages (factory‑installed telematics/camera and radar integration, supports up to six cameras).
• Outside cab ground-level controls for full Python® arm operation from the ground.
• Rooftop CNG storage option for CNG fuel systems to retain diesel-like productivity.
• Extended tailgate seal options, Select‑O‑Pack and other configurations for organics collection.

Performance & operational advantages
The Python® arm’s rapid lift cycle (typical ~8 seconds) reduces seconds per stop, delivering measurable route-time savings. The Continuous Pack design and fewer wear components lower maintenance needs and extend service intervals.

Standard features (selected)

• Patented Big Swing Paddle Packer (continuous sweep — no stop-and-pack required).
• Improved paddle life and redesigned packer shaft seal to reduce leaks.
• Upper and lower bearing grease lines accessible at ground level.
• Robust body construction: 1/2" hopper floor, 7-gauge 50,000 psi body floor and 10" channel longmembers for floor support.
• Ergonomic joystick cab controls with AutoLoad capability.
• DuraMount lift mounting design to reduce bolt fatigue and ease maintenance access.
• Operate‑in‑Gear‑at‑Idle system for quieter, fuel-efficient operation and reduced drivetrain wear.

Applications
Designed for residential and commercial collection where productivity, reach and reliability are priorities — particularly routes requiring tight maneuvering, organics collection, or operations constrained by weight limits.
