Utility Dump Box Maintenance
There are only two moving parts that need to be maintained.
• After 50 hours of use, remove the box and latch pivot bolts and inspect them for wear. They
should not show wear, if they do, they need to be replaced.
Do not use any oil to lubricate the pivots as it will collect and retain sand and grit and cause
more wear. Graphite or a Molly lube can be used if you so desire.
• The locknuts should be tightened to just allow the parts to pivot freely. (tighten the bolt then
back the nut off 1/2 turn)
• Ensure the pull rope or chain is in good condition.
• After use, clean the box and ensure it will dry.
Storage:
when storing for long periods, store it in a dry place and place a few drops of oil on
the pivot bolts to prevent rust.
Any bare metal areas should be touched up with paint.
Bolts
