OPERATION
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
3rd gear. While in 3rd gear it will not be possible to
raisethebinhigherthen15%.
If the operator lifts the bin to between 15-50% and
starts driving forward, the machine will be limited to
2nd gear and while in 2nd gear it will not be
possible to raise the bin higher then 50%. If the
operator lifts the bin to between 50-100%, and start
driving forward, the machine will be limited to only
1st gear.
Reverse operation of the machine is not affected by
the bin raised condition (as described above).
The engine exhaust brake is automatically applied
and the exhaust brake warning indicator is
illuminated during the above retardation period.
The display will show an amber bin up light and it
will flash if the bin is up and in gear. If the bin is up
and not in gear the display will show a green bin up
light.
Reverse Bin Scrape Protection
NOTE
Bin scrape protection in reverse is built into
the software. When the bin position is
greater than 70% and the transmission is in
reverse, the software will limit the engine
torque to 20%. This will prevent the opera-
tor using the bin as a scraper when the ma-
chine is driven into the pile.
Lowering Bin
1. Position the machine in a straight ahead
position.
2. Apply the park brake.
3. Select Neutral (N).
4. Increase the engine speed to approximately 1
500 rpm.
5. Operate the bin-down switch.
6. Reduce engine speed as the bin reaches maxi-
mum travel.
Ensure that none of the load or other objects can pre-
vent the tailgate closing fully during the bin lowering
cycle.
Ensurethatthereisno-onebehindthemachinebe-
fore raising or lowering the bin.
NOTE
If the bin is not fully lowered (the bin raised
warning indicator is illuminated), the ma-
chine has just been emptied and the bin is
at 100%. The operator selects drive, and at
the same time activates the bin-down
switch, thus activating the detent. While the
bin is between 100-50%, the machine is
limited to only 1st gear. When the bin
passes the 50% mark, the machine will al-
low shifting into 2nd gear and at the same
time limits the truck to a maximum of 2nd
gear while being between the points of 50-
15%. As the bin passes the 15% mark, the
machine will allow shifting into 3rd gear as
the maximum. The machine will remain
limited to a maximum of 3rd gear until the
bin reaches 5%. At this point the detent be-
comes de-activated, and the bin float
comes into effect. All limits are switched off,
and the machine drives as normal.
1. Select Drive (D).
2. Release the park brake and drive off slowly.
