Refitting Skip
z With suitable lifting gear position skip on dumper and fit
new pivot pins. Centralise skip so skip ram lies centrally
between stiffening ribs on the bottom of the skip. With the
skip in this position determine the number of large washers
required to pack out the clearances on the skip pivot pins -
see diagram below.
z Remove skip pivot pins, one at a time, and fit the large
washers in their correct positions. Refit new pivot pin and
retain with washer and split pin supplied. Align the hole in
the head of the pin with the tapped hole in skip. Fit M8x25
setscrew and spring washer to prevent the pin from rotating.
z Position skip ram at its skip location and fit new pivot pin. Align
pin so its cross drilled hole mates with the cross drilled hole in
skip pivot boss. Retain pin with an 8mm x 75mm split pin.
