For fleet managers, the 100-hour service is a cornerstone of compactor maintenance, identifying wear in critical systems like hydraulic systems and structural components to prevent costly downtime and ensure long-term reliability.
Targeted 100-hour checks that reduce failures by 65% and boost equipment life.
The 100-hour service is a comprehensive maintenance checkpoint designed to address wear in high-stress compactor components, ensuring operational reliability and compliance with waste management regulations.
This service goes beyond weekly checklists, involving detailed inspections of hydraulic rams, compaction blades, and structural welds to catch issues before they escalate into major repairs.
| Component | Inspection Task | Priority |
|---|---|---|
| Hydraulic Rams | Pressure & leak test | High |
| Compaction Blades | Wear measurement | Medium |
| Pivot Bearings | Lubrication & alignment | Low |
| Structural Welds | Crack inspection | Critical |
| Safety Interlocks | Functional test | High |
Proactive 100-hour servicing delivers measurable ROI by minimizing downtime, reducing repair costs, and ensuring regulatory compliance.
Catch issues early to avoid 80% of unscheduled outages, building on daily checklist insights.
Save up to $8,500 per unit annually by extending component life, aligned with 250-hour service strategies.
Ensure OSHA and EPA compliance through safety critical inspections and detailed documentation.
A structured approach ensures consistent, thorough maintenance that optimizes compactor performance and longevity.
This process integrates data from pre-trip inspections, enabling technicians to focus on critical wear points with precision and efficiency.

Get answers to key questions about implementing effective compactor maintenance programs
Key components include hydraulic rams for pressure and leaks, compaction blades for wear, pivot bearings for lubrication, structural welds for integrity, and safety interlocks for functionality. These checks prevent catastrophic failures and ensure operational safety.
A 100-hour service typically takes 90-120 minutes using HVI's digital checklists, covering preparation, hydraulic and mechanical inspections, lubrication, and documentation. Manual processes may take up to 150 minutes due to inefficiencies.
Unlike daily checklists (visual scans) or weekly checklists (operational checks), 100-hour services involve detailed measurements, disassembly, and adjustments to address cumulative wear and prevent major failures.
HVI's platform offers mobile-accessible digital checklists, real-time telematics alerts for service scheduling, photo documentation for issue tracking, and automated compliance reporting, reducing service time by 30% and ensuring audit readiness.
Track mean time between failures, hydraulic pressure deviations, component wear rates, service completion times, and compliance audit scores to optimize maintenance schedules and reduce costs.
