5-3 TA9 & TA10 Dumper 0803-2 November 2009
Description
Skip
The dumper vehicle is basically a load carrier and can be used
for a multitude of building/contracting site functions, but
essentially it is used for carrying materials from excavations or
demolitions and commonly carrying materials to general
building activities. The carrying of soil, sand, gravel, debris,
bricks etc. requires that the materials can be placed accurately
at the place point and in some cases without damage to the
materials themselves.
It is for this reason that the load carrying skip is power lifted and
lowered by means of double acting hydraulic cylinders mounted
between the front chassis and the underside of the skip which
are controlled from the drivers seat by a double acting hydraulic
control valve (A).
To elevate the skip move lever (A) forwards.
To lower the skip move lever (A) backwards.
The power for the system is provided by an engine driven
hydraulic pump and the circuit is described in detail in the
Hydraulic System section.
The skip in the lowered or loading position is located such that
the driver has a good view ahead, therefore when loading the
skip get off the machine and do not allow the load to be heaped
in such a fashion as to impair the drivers view
Skip Props
Skip props (A) are provided to enable personnel to work safely
on the machine with the skip in the raised position. The prop is
retained in the stored position by a pin (B) secured by a grip clip
(C).
The same pin and grip clip are used to secure the prop in the
working position..

Never Elevate Skip Unless the Dumper Is On Level Ground
