The 55SC has a hold-down control feature built into the hydraulic system. When the compaction head lowers and reaches maximum pressure, the hydraulic system locks. Maintaining this compaction head position tends to break down the memory of the material. This prevents material springback which significantly improves volume reduction.
This control is extremely helpful when compacting lightweight waste like paper, cloth or plastic. The compaction head will stay in this position almost indefinitely - even with the motor turned off.
