4. Assembly, Handling and Storage
4.1 Assembly
The Dumpmaster is usually delivered fully assembled, but in some cases guarding panels may
be removed to minimise volume for shipping. Assembly instructions can be viewed at the
following link:
https://support.simpro.world/help/dumpmaster-assembly-guide .
A sealed ‘transit plug’ may be fitted to the hydraulic fluid tank to prevent oil leaks during
shipping. This must be replaced with the supplied ‘breather plug’ before the machine is
operated, or the tank may be damaged.
4.2 Moving
When the Dumpmaster is standing upright it may be easily moved on its castor wheels, using
the two grab-handles provided. To ensure stability the cradle should be positioned 100mm
off the ground when moving.
On a hard, flat surface, the Dumpmaster can be moved by a force of approximately 70
Newtons at a height of 1.6 metres.
An accessory is available from Simpro which enables a directional lock on the castor
wheels. This can make the machine easier to manoeuvre on sloping ground.
Extra care should be taken when moving the machine on sloping ground.
4.3 Lifting
Observe the following procedures when lifting the Dumpmaster:
1. Check that the lifting equipment is in good condition and rated to lift at least 500kg.
2. Affix a lifting sling or chain around the top frame cross-member (or to the lifting lugs if
provided).
3. Use one person to operate the lifting equipment, and at least one other person to
watch for obstructions and hold the machine steady if required.
4. Lift, move and lower the machine into place, ensuring it remains upright at all times.
Standard Dumpmaster machines weigh between 200kg and 300kg. Always verify the
weight of the machine on the rating plate, and check that the lifting equipment to be
used has sufficient capacity.
Never stand or reach underneath the machine while it is being lifted.
4.4 Transport
Observe the following procedures when transporting the Dumpmaster:
1. Lower the cradle, apply both brakes and turn the isolator switch OFF.
