Caution!
Avoid spraying pressurized water directly on connectors and battery fuses.
Caution!
When parking the truck overnight after cleaning the hopper, Labrie Enviroquip Group
recommends leaving the truck’s clean-out traps slightly open if frost is forecast in your
area. This should prevent rain accumulation at the bottom of the hopper and ice build-up
around the packer cylinders. This will also help you use the truck right away when
returning to work in the morning.
Never use the packer when its components are stuck in ice, as damage or
malfunction of said components may result.
Before each work shift make sure all clean-out trap doors are securely closed.
