7.2 Working with the machine
7.2.1 General safety and operating instructions
The following section contains some general notes on safety and operation for working with the three-
way dumper, repeated and summarized together for better clarity:
1.
The weights and loads specified on the type plate must be observed.
2.
Note the maximum permitted drawbar load of the trailer coupling.
3.
When parking the vehicle, make sure the supporting mechanism is correctly locked.
4.
Never
park the TDMK on the supporting mechanism
while it is loaded
.
Park the TDMK so that it is stable. If the ground is soft, increase the size of the support plate of
the supporting foot.
5.
When parking the trailer, secure it against rolling away (parking brake, wheel chocks).
6.
The three-way dumper must only be attached with the designated devices and in compliance
with regulations. Connect the brake system and check to ensure it is functioning properly.
Follow the manufacturer's instructions.
7.
There is a risk of injury when coupling and uncoupling the three-way dumper to and from the
tractor (danger due to crushing and shearing points when actuating the support gear).
Keep
children away!
8.
When coupling, make sure that the trailer coupling pin is secured.
9.
There is a risk of injury at crushing or shearing points in the area between the towing vehicle
and trailer.
10.
Before first-time start-up, move all protective devices to the safety position.
11.
Before coupling or uncoupling the vehicle, secure it against rolling away using the parking brake
and/or wheel chocks.
12.
Movable structural parts, such as the side panel, must be secured in their end positions.
13.
Special caution is required when opening and closing these parts.
14.
Move all devices to the transport position before driving on public roads.
15.
When performing maintenance work between the tipper bridge and the chassis, the stopcock for
the tipper hydraulics must be closed. This prevents accidental lowering of the tipper bridge. (An
optional bridge support can also be applied.)
16.
There must be
no
persons in the danger zone when the load is being tipped.
17.
Allow for reduced load on the tractor front axle and loss of steering ability due to the drawbar
load of the trailer.
18.
The tipping cylinder must be fully retracted when the trailer is not in use. Otherwise, moisture
may cause the cylinder to rust.
