Otto Environmental Systems • 800 . 795 . OTTO ( 6886 ) • www.otto-usa.com <br /> <br />Other benefits include: <br />• A guaranteed ten-year, non-prorated warranty on carts and a five-year, non-prorated warranty on <br />recycling bins, along with a one-year non-prorated warranty on commercial dumpsters. <br />• A container failure rate of less than 1%. <br />• Standard snap-on wheels that roll easily, quietly and provide greater control of the cart. <br />• A large oversize solid steel axle, which is manufactured from recycled material, to provide <br />exceptional durability. <br />• A cart design that leads the industry in wind stability. <br />• A virtually maintenance-free container, decreasing costly labor for repair. <br />• A durable metal lower “catch” bar. <br />• Industry leading and value-added graphic design services for instructions and container branding. <br />• A selection of seven standard colors and superior hot stamping using the latest heat sink <br />technologies. <br />• An aesthetically pleasing container that complements both inside and outside environments. <br /> <br />Innovative Technology <br />Otto is actively investing in cloud-based technologies to change our world for the better. Our investment <br />in “the cloud” aims to reduce our manufacturing footprint and in turn, increase efficiencies that will lead <br />to a cleaner community, less printed paper, more recycled product, and reduced product lead times. <br /> <br />All Otto carts can be equipped with RFID tags or permanent barcodes that can link a cart to a specific <br />address. With RFID, a plastic RFID tag is placed inside the handle of the cart during assembly at Otto’s <br />manufacturing facility and secured in place once the hinge pins are fastened to the lid. Barcodes are <br />available at the time of manufacture with several application options. <br /> <br />ANSI Approved <br />Otto carts meet or exceed A.N.S.I. (American National Standards Institute) Z245 standards for <br />compatibility dimensions to ensure that containers and lifters work together to safely empty and return <br />the container to the ground after collection. These include bib and lift bar dimensional requirements <br />based on the container type. For required markings, Otto carts include a code for the date of <br />manufacture, the maximum payload weight rating, the volumetric capacity, and safety “close lid before <br />moving” instructions. Cart testing is always executed with the maximum load weight of 3.5 pounds per <br />gallon. Additional proprietary tests are also performed and recorded to ensure variables such as <br />different working shifts, raw materials, and equipment are consistent for optimal output. <br /> <br />A.N.S.I. sts include: <br />1. Curb Test: This test determines whether the cart’s handles, wheels and axles will withstand the <br />repeated impact forces experienced during a normal 10-year useful life. A maximum loaded cart <br />is pushed off a curb of 5.5 inches and repositioned at the top and repeated for 520 cycles! Otto’s <br />steel axles and strong axle ribs ensure a strong base to absorb the impact without breaking. <br />2. Lid Test: Otto cart lids can withstand a load of 80 pounds (comparable to the weight of a small <br />child) without collapsing. <br />3. Force to Tip Test: Cart testing measures the force required to start container movement or tip a <br />maximum loaded cart to ensure ease of operation. Otto carts are well below the industry <br />standard of not exceeding 120 pounds of force. <br />4. Center of Balance Position Test: To further ensure ease of operation, Otto carts are tested to <br />ensure that the height of the handle at the center-of-balance position is between 29-40 inches.
