figure 3.3a
Increase the throttle to 1,200 rpm. Do not race
the engine while using the hoist.
Grasp the hand valve handle (fig. 3.3a) pull the
handle to the right (toward the radiator) to raise
the body.
Raise the body only as high as it is needed to
dump the load.
Shut off all power, raise the body prop(s) (fig.
3.3b) to a free standing position. Lower the body
slowly until the the long beam bracket contacts
the prop arm saddle (fig. 3.3c). DO NOT POWER
HOIST DOWN.
Before lowering the body, walk completely
around the unit and thoroughly inspect the area
between the body and the unit’s frame. Look for
any object, person or animal that could potentially
get between the dump body and the frame.
DO
NOT go under the body while inspecting.
Once the load has been dumped, start the engine
as described in section 3.1. DO NOT race the
engine.
Slowly raise the body just enough to clear the
body prop saddle, lower the body prop to the stor-
age position (fig 3.3c) and slowly lower the body.
The dump body may stop approximately 12”
from the bottom due to the safety check valve. If
it does, slowly raise the body a few inches and
SLOWLY lower the body down. The body needs
to be lowered extremely slow the last 12 inches or
the check valve will stop the body.
Once the body is completely down, close the rear
doors and prepare the unit for travel as detailed in
this manual.
