OPERATION
After you have run the Forage Box for several minutes, checked it over thoroughly as suggested in
earlier recommendations, and have properly adjusted and lubricated it, you are ready to place your Power
Box into operation.
UNLOADING
1. Park the Forage Box on level ground whenever possible during unloading.
2. *Connect the hydraulic hoses from the Forage Box to the tractor.*
3. With operator in the truck or tractor seat, and all others well clear of Forage Box, engage the
hydraulics. NOTE: Rear unload operates in only one direction. *If tractor hydraulic system stalls,
check for obstruction, reverse the lever on the tractor or switch the hydraulic hoses at the ports on
the tractor. If stalling persists, the problem may be insufficient tractor hydraulic pressure.*

forward to allow material to fall away from rear
of box.

REAR DOOR LATCHES
Located at the bottom left, center, and right hand side of the
rear door are the door latches. These latches lock against
knurled gears on rear drive shaft to hold door closed when
loading Rear Unload Power Box. When hydraulics are acti-
vated and rear drive shaft turns, knurled gears flip latches open
to allow rear door to swing free. Upon completion of unload-
ing check rear door to insure that door latches are securely in
place for next load.
