SAFETY CODE
18
The following action can be taken without special tools. If unsuccessful,
call your nearest Edbro service dealer (refer list pages 20-24).
THE HOIST IS JERKY OR SLUGGISH
Air may be trapped in the system. Check oil level and then operate the
hoist to full stroke several times; any air will be dissipated back to the
tank. (see page 17)
THE BODY WILL NOT TIP
Make sure:
•
the vehicle air pressure has had enough time to build up (see
vehicle operator's manual)
•
the oil in the tank is up to dipstick level (refer page 16)
•
the PTO switch is 'in' and PTO is engaged (oil is circulating)
•
the tipper lever is in 'raise'
•
there are no kinks in the oil pipes
•
no air is leaking from the air pipes.
THE BODY WILL NOT LOWER
Check PTO has disengaged and warning light is out.
Put the tipper lever back in 'raise'. Then:
•
rev the engine until the relief (overload) valve blows, i.e. until you
hear a high pitched noise coming from the tipper valve (page 3)
•
keep the engine revs going for five seconds
•
lower the body (page 11).
If the body still will not come down, put the tipper lever in 'hold',
PROP THE BODY, switch the PTO to 'out' and turn off the engine.
