WARNING
7.
Securely tie down the load and attach the winch
cable to the front of the load, if it is not already
attached. Reel in winch cable until it becomes tight.
(Winch cable serves as a safety tiedown in case load
tiedown fails, but is not to replace tie downs.)
8.
If the load center of gravity is not ahead of the rear
axle, alternate between tilting the front of the bed up
and moving the undercarriage to the rear, until the
center of gravity of the trailer load is in front of the
rear axle. Keep part of the load on the wheels and
part on the approach plate. Never move the
undercarriage so far to the rear that the approach
plate is lifted off the ground during this procedure.
9.
When the center of gravity of the trailer and load is in
front of the rear axle, fully lower the tilt angle.
10. After bed tilt angle is fully lowered, move the
undercarriage to the rear until it is in transport
position. The trailer deck will lower as the
undercarriage rollers go into pockets. Hold
TRAILER
TILT
lever in the down position until hydraulic system
works against the bottomed out Hydraulic Tilt
Cylinders. Hold
AXLE CONTROL
lever in the
transport position until hydraulic system works
against the fully extended hydraulic axle cylinder.
11. Check the position of the payload. If between 8% and
30% of the total weight of trailer plus payload is not
on the hitch, then properly secure load before
removing tie downs. Move payload to proper
position, then secure the load using approved
standard tie-down methods.
12. Disengage the P.T.O. system of tractor or shut off the
hydraulic power engine.
13. Recheck that the load is properly secured. Assure
maintenance schedule is up-to-date and trailer is
ready to be pulled.
Unloading the Trailer
WARNING
WARNING
The center of gravity of the load must be in front
of the rear axle whenever the approach plate is
not supported by the ground. Failure to do this
can cause the trailer to tilt back resulting in injury
or death.
Never tilt the trailer without the load properly
restrained. Failure to do so may result in the load
moving resulting in serious personal injury,
death, or damage to property in it’s path.
Do not pull the rear axle of trailer farther forward
than the center of gravity of the payload when
rear approach plate is off the ground. Failure to
operate correctly can allow front of trailer to go
up and pull towing truck off the ground resulting
in serious personal injury, death, or damage to
property in its path.
