2. Operating Instructions
Before the machine is used for the first time, a site-specific Hazard and Risk Assessment
should be completed as per
§5.3 .
2.1 Before operation
Before operating a Multi-Tip, check that the machine is stable and safe to use as follows:
1. The machine is on firm ground with a slope ratio of less than 1:12.
2. All covers and safety guards are in place.
3. The wheel brakes are applied.
4. All personnel other than the operator are well clear of the machine.
5. The cradle is fully lowered.
6. The key is inserted and turned to the ON position.
7. The battery indicator (if fitted) shows an acceptable level of charge.
2.2 Emplacing and removing bins
The Multi-Tip cradle is designed to allow bins to be emplaced and removed easily, while also
holding them securely throughout the tipping cycle.
It is important to understand how to correctly place bins onto the cradle, as improper
placement may result in bins falling out of the machine when inverted.
2.2.1 Cradle identification
A range of different cradles may be fitted to the Multi-Tip, depending on the bins it will be
emptying. Use the following table to identify the correct instructions for your machine.
