Original Working Instructions
Usage Instructions
Use with a Telehandler
1.
Set the telehandler’s forks to the correct width for the skip’s fork pockets.
Make sure that they are equidistant from the centre carriage.
2.
Drive the telehandler to the skip aligning the forks with the skips fork pockets.
3.
Double check that all is correctly aligned, then move the telehandler forward
until the forks are fully inserted into the fork pockets.
Autolock Mechanism Instructions
Once the forks are driven fully into the fork pockets, upon lifting the Autolock
mechanism will automatically rise onto the locked position. IMPORTANT: If the
skip cannot be secured correctly do not continue, contact Conquip Engineering
Group for advice. Only load the skip when fully lowered to the ground, load the
skip ensuring the load is no wider, longer or higher than the skips side walls. do
not overload by volume or by weight.
1. Once ready, clear all personnel
from the work area. Raise
the unit just enough to allow
sufficient clearance from the
ground when traveling.
2. Drive the telehandler to the
discharge area. If discharging in
to a traditional skip, raise the
unit so that it clears the walls of
the skip then drive forward until
positioned over the skip.
3.
Using the tilt function on the
telehandler, empty the skip of its
contents, return the skip to the
horizontal position, return to the
loading area.
4. The skip can be removed from
the telehandler simply by landing
on level ground and reversing
away.

Instructions for Use with a Crane
1.
Connect the 4 points lifting chains to the respective 4 lifting eyes on the skip.
2.
Once the chains are secured, carry out a test lift. Then the crane operator
should lift the skip and transport to the correct location on site.
3. When the skip is safely on the ground, detach the chains and store in a safe
place.
Important Usage Notes
•
Ensure the work area is clear of all obstructions.
•
Check that the skip is suitably rated to lift the load and of the correct size.
•
Ensure adequate room around the unit for the operator to work safely.
•
Use a suitably rated 4-leg lifting chain, with self-locking hooks.
•
Take care not to tangle the chains when attaching to the skip.
•
Always use a signaller that can clearly communicate with the crane operator.
