OPTIONS OPERATION
Container handling devices are offered by
LOADMASTER. There are three different types
available on the ELITE:
Roll bar option (for 1 and 2 cubic yard cans)
2-10 Reever option (for 2 through 10 yard
cans)
Winch options (for 2 through 10 yard cans)
Oftentimes, more than one optional container
handling device is mounted on the same packer.
They will have separate control levers and the
levers will be labeled for their purpose.
These option control levers are typically located on
the right side (curb-side) near the compaction
blade control levers. A throttle advance button
switch is nearby to manually advance the diesel’s
throttle.
The roll bar option is designed to be operated
at
diesel idle
(no throttle advancement). Do not
advance diesel and then operate either of these
two options.
The 2-10 reever and the winch will require throttle
advancement.
Before attempting to lift any container, you must
assure the container’s trunnion style is compatible
to the LOADMASTER devices. The container must
safely couple to LOADMASTER’s pivot plates.
Make certain that the areas around the tailgate and
the container to be lifted is clear of all people
before attempting to lift the container.
The operator must be ready to immediately stop
any operation in the dumping of the container.
Prior to cycling the packing blades, the container
should be partially lowered to eliminate the
possibility of material being pinched between the
sweep blade and the container’s lip.
Make certain all lifting cables have hooks that are
equipped with a functional latch.
DO NOT CARRY/TRANSPORT CONTAINER ON
THE LIFT MECHANISM.
DO NOT USE THROTTLE ADVANCE WHEN USING ROLLBAR!
DO NOT USE THROTTLE ADVANCE WHEN USING “1-2 LIFT”!
MAKE CERTAIN THE CONTAINER’S TRUNNION CAN SAFELY
COUPLE TO THE LOADMASTER LIFT ATTACHMENT POINTS!
STAY CLEAR AT ALL TIMES WHEN CONTAINER IS
OFF GROUND
STAND CLEAR WHEN LIFTING DEVICE IS IN MOTION
ALL HOOKS MUST HAVE LATCHES THAT ARE IN
GOOD WORKING CONDITION.
