Hopper Tilt Operation
1. Follow steps 1 through 3 of the hopper lift operation.
2. Engage the Hopper Tilt Switch in the UP position.
NOTE
: The chute will lower, and then the dump door will begin to open.
3. Continue holding the Hopper Tilt switch in the UP position.
NOTE
: The CHUTE DOWN indicator light will turn ON. The hopper will begin to tilt
and the HOPPER TILTED indicator light will turn ON.
4. Continue holding the Hopper Tilt switch in the UP position until it is fully tilted.
NOTE
: The hopper load will be distributed uniformly into the container from the far
side to the sweeper side as the hopper tilts.
NOTE:
If the chute comes into contract with the dump truck or container, either
lift the hopper up or tilt it away from the obstruction.
5. Allow all of the debris in the hopper to fully unload.
6. Shake the hopper by lifting the hopper up and down in a fast, rhythmic motion.
NOTE
: This will facilitate removing the debris that is still clinging to the inside of the
hopper.
7. Engage the Hopper Tilt Switch in the DOWN position.
NOTE
: The hopper will tilt down, the dump door will close, and the chute will close.
8. Follow steps 3 through 5 of the hopper lift operation.
Safety Interlocks
1. The hopper will not lift or tilt when the blower is engaged (not in neutral).
2. The hopper will not lift or tilt when the truck transmission is not in neutral and the park
brake is not set.
3. If the stabilizers are down and/or the hopper is tilted, the warning buzzer and the corre-
sponding indicator light in the cab will alert the operator if:
a. The blower rpm switch is engaged.
b. The truck transmission is shifted out of neutral.
c. The park brake is released.
4. The hopper will not tilt below minimum dump height.
NOTE:
If the hopper is tilted when lowering the lift, it will stop at minimum dump
height. The hopper can’t travel below minimum dump height until the hopper
is tilted down onto the lift (hopper tilted indicator light is OFF).
