Operation
2.3 Slide Functions
Cycling of the Sweep and Slide Functions are controlled by
the sweep and slide levers, which are located at the rear of
the vehicle on the curb side. The operator must follow ANSI
Z245.1 packing and material handling controls standard,
which includes directives that all personnel are clear of the
hopper before starting any packing cycle or material handling.
The operator must remain at the controls during the packing
cycle and be ready to stop the packing cycle if there is a
potential point of operation hazard.
DANGER
Use extreme caution around the sweep and
slide area on the rear of the vehicle. Be sure
the area in the hopper is clear before
operating the controls.
Serious personal injury or death may result if
someone is caught in the sweep or slide
panels.
1. PUSH the slide lever to LOWER the panel down (Figure
17 , Item 1). The function stops automatically when it hits
the fully lowered position, and the control lever returns to
its centered position.
2. PULL the slide lever to RAISE the slide panel up and
complete the packing cycle. This cycles the sweep and
slide panels up together ( Figure 17 , Item 2). The function
stops automatically when it hits the fully raised position,
and the control lever returns to its centered position.
