Rear Tailboard configuration – establish correct mode before
attempting to tip:
Dependent upon the type of load being tipped the dual mode tailboard can be
configured to open in one of two ways:
1) Top Hinged (TipThru) – best suited for
‘Fluid’ loads such as sand, gravel,
crushed concrete, type 1 aggregate,
soil, wood shavings etc.
2) Bottom Hinged (TipOver) – best
suited for loads consisting of one or
more large individual items for
example logs, tree cuttings, white
goods, furniture etc.
If in doubt, use the Bottom Hinged mode.
Bottom Hinged mode Always ensure sufficient clearance for the
tailboard to hang without touching the ground, a minimum of 12"
(300mm) is recommended with the tailboard in the lowered condition
body fully laden and in the lowered position.
If a tow bar has been fitted, ensure that the tailboard has been fitted
with a protective guide (see Towing) to prevent it from jamming on the
tow hitch. If a guide is not installed the tailboard may be damaged.
Bottom Hinged mode – Vehicle rear lights and hazard lights will be
obscured, always deploy additional warnings to other road users and
minimise the amount of time the board is lowered, return board to the
shut position immediately after the tip is completed.
