4.3.1.1
Lip Catch adjustment
Both Type-S and Type-E cradles have two small steel brackets called
Lip Catches
(green in the above
) v b f ‘ l f w ’ f h c l wh
inverted. These should be adjusted to suit the largest bins that
are to be emptied in regular
operation (usually 660L for Type-S cradles or 1100L for Type-E cradles).
The procedure to adjust the Lip Catches is as follows:
1.
Lower the cradle completely to the ground and open the safety door.
2.
Place
a
sample of the
largest bin that is to be regularly emptied
onto the cradle,
ensuring it is centrally positioned and firm against the backplate.
3.
Standing at the tipping face of the MegaDumper, use a 13mm torque wrench or
spanner to release the bolts holding the lip catches to the cradle.
4.
Adjust the catches so that the horizontal tab sits approximately
10mm above the front
lip of the bin
.
o
A series of bolt-holes are provided in the cradle for repositioning the catches.
o
For smaller bins the catches can be fixed with the horizontal tabs below the
bolts, to form a shape like
L
. This is shown on the diagram of the Type-S cradle.
o
For larger bins the catches can be fixed with the horizontal tabs above the
bolts, to form a shape like
⅂
. This is shown on the diagram of the Type-E cradle.
o
The combination of catch position and orientation allows about 200mm of
vertical adjustment, from 1070mm to 1270mm. This is sufficient to suit almost all
4-wheel bins.
5.
Once the catches are correctly positioned, re-tighten the bolts (torque ~10Nm).
4.3.1.2
Primary Swing-Arm adjustment
Both Type-S and Type-E cradles have a pair of pivoting arms called
Primary Swing-Arms
(blue in the above diagram) to prevent large 4-wheel
b f ‘ ll
over
’
while being tipped.
When the cradle is resting on the ground, the Primary Swing-Arms are moved into the open
position (vertical) by means of a ground rod
. When the cradle is lifted off the
ground, the arms are moved into the closed position (horizontal) by springs
Because the Primary Swing-Arms are collar-mounted on axles, their position and rotation can
be configured independently. They should be adjusted to suit the largest bins to be emptied
in regular operation (usually 660L for Type-S cradles or 1100L for Type-E cradles).
The procedure to adjust the Primary Swing-Arms is as follows:
1.
Lower the cradle to the ground and open the safety door.
2.
Place
a
sample of the
largest bin that is to be regularly emptied
onto the cradle,
ensuring it is centrally positioned and firm against the backplate.
3.
Use a 13mm torque wrench or spanner to release the collar bolt holding one of the
swing arms onto its axle.
4.
Rotate the arm horizontal and slide it forwards on its axle until it contacts the face of
the bin, then withdraw it by 10mm.
