98 Operating the MINIMAX
TM
7. Once the unloading process is complete, press the yellow push-button on the packer control
station (see Figure 3-44) to retract the packer to its “home” position.
8. When the packer has reached its “home” position, press and keep down the Tailgate Down
switch on the multiplexed switch actuator module (see Figure 3-23) to close the tailgate.
IMPORTANT: Be sure the waste that piled up behind the truck will not interfere with the descending tailgate.
9. Once the tailgate is closed, put the safety pins back to their locked position (see Figure 4-10).
10. Drive away from the unloading site.
11. Perform the end-of-the-day inspection (see End-of-the-Day Cleaning and Inspection on page 99).
IMPORTANT: Cleaning of the tailgate seal rubber, locking mechanism and front of the packer must be done
regularly. At the end of the ejection phase, take the time to proceed with this task. But before doing
so, always set the tailgate safety prop first (see Tailgate Safety Prop on page 26)..
Emergency Actions
Hydraulic Oil Spill
In case of hydraulic spill, do the following:
1. Press the emergency red button.
2. Turn OFF the Pump switch and stop the truck engine.
3. Close the shut-off valve on the hydraulic tank (see Figure 4-11).
Warning!
Never move the truck backwards with the tailgate in raised position.
Danger!
Always use the tailgate safety prop while working under a raised tailgate. The safety prop
should be used even if the tailgate is in fully raised position.
