Fixed Reach (FXR) Top Loading Arm
his simple arm incorporates only three swivel planes of rotation and is designed for use in top-loading installations where the vehicle is located at a fixed distance from the riser pipe. The two swivel planes at the inlet permit both up-and-down and side-to-side movement of the assembly, and the third swivel plane allows the drop pipe to remain vertical.
