Loading Vehicles and other Plant under Own Power
•
There are two potential problems:
o
Wheelspin on a wet trailer
o
Wheel going off one side of the trailer, possibly due to squirming sideways under
wheelspin.
•
If wheelspin is encountered, and no winch is available, then the only advice is to suspend any
further loading attempts until adhesion is restored.
•
In the particular case of the TB trailer (4m variant only) a bolt on side-rave kit is available
which enables the Operater to “feel” where the side of t
he trailer is.
•
The CT177 has very distinct sides to its bed and going off the side should not be possible.
•
Use an assistant during own-power loading.
•
Having got the load into position the loading procedure is completed as detailed in section

Notes Specific to Different Tiltbed Types

Loading CT166 & 167 Trailers
CT166 and 167 trailers have a relatively high bed (for a CT type) and are available with a short ramp
–
effectively a tailboard that can be driven over
–
and also a longer 3’ ramp.
Spoiler clearance is more likely to be an issue with these older trailer models.

Loading TB Trailers
•
TB Trailers can be supplied with “S
-
shaped”
Full Width Ramp or Sliding Skids. These offer some
relief to the spoiler clearance problem on typical modern cars.
