GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
CAUTION
3.4.8 ROLLER CARTS
Roller carts are generally used for garbage and
unload themselves in the center of the hopper
to prevent spillage on either side of the hopper.
They are provided with a hook up system
opposite to the wheels and cover
’ s hinge. This
hook up system should engage the cart tipper
adequately, if it is the appropriate type to fit
the roller cart. The roller cart will be held,
dumped and returned to the ground safely by
the semiautomatic cart tipper system.
If a roller cart is used in a commingle type
environment, it can easily be fitted to dump to
the far side of the hopper by the installation of
a chute system. That should be thought of,
when you plan to use it in such a commingling
program (Figure #3.18).
Some cart tipper systems are stored along the
side and below the hopper, in that position the
cart tipper is not ready to work. You have to
lift the cart tipper partially so the lowest part
becomes parallel to the side of the roller cart.
Once the cart tipper is ready to receive a roller
cart, approach the cart so the hook up system
is aligned with the cart tipper attachment. As
you will activate the cart tipper system it will
catch the roller cart and lock it in place
adequately to lift it, dump it and return it to the
ground (Figure #3.17).
ALWAYS BE CAUTIOUS AND
WATCH FOR AN IMPROPERLY
ATTACHED CART THAT COULD
FALL OFF.
