Adjusting Chute Angle
The angle of the chute against the arm assembly or the floating panels should be 21° on both sides. If
the angle of your chute differs from this value, you should apply the following procedure.
To adjust the angle of the chute, proceed this way:
1. Start the truck and engage the hydraulic pump.
2. Fully retract the packer and lean the chute to the left (streetside) [see Figure 3-124].
3. Lower the crusher panel completely, if equipped, using the CRUSHER PANEL DOWN switch on
the in-cab control panel (see Figure 3-125).
Danger!
Never enter the hopper while the hydraulic system is engaged.
