6. Assembly, Handling, Transport & Storage
6.1 Assembly
The Dumpmaster is usually delivered fully assembled. However, 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 .
In some cases, a seal ed ‘transit plug’ is fitted to the hydraulic reservoir to prevent oil leaks
during shipping . This must be replaced with the supplied ‘breather plug’ before the
machine is operated, or the reservoir will be damaged.
6.2 Moving
When the machine 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.
A small accessory is available from Simpro which enables a directional lock on the castor
wheels. In some applications this makes the machine easier to manoeuvre.
Extra care should be taken when moving the machine on sloping ground.
6.3 Lifting
If the machine needs to be lifted for any reason, carry out the following procedure:
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.
6.4 Transportation
Carry out the following procedure when the machine needs to be transported:
1. Apply both footbrakes and turn the lockout switch to OFF.
2. If possible, use lifting equipment to lie the machine onto its back (the tipping face) on
a wooden pallet, and securely strap it into place.
