 Tipping 

–

 Electric Tip 

 

This system uses an electro-hydraulic pump powered by an on-board 12V battery and controlled by 
a cabled handset. A main isolator switch operated by a removable key deters unauthorised use.  
An override system allows the pump to be operated manually if required. Follow the Manual Pump 
instructions to operate.
