Dump Bed Style EZ Hitch

Some transport vehicles have a bed that elevates at an angle hydraulically to unload
cargo. This type of bed is called a Dump Bed and requires a different style of
Hanger Plate Weldment. There is a Dump Bed EZ Hitch
P/N P90.2362.
The kit consists of all the same componentry as the standard EZ Hitch
P/N P90.1067C is replaced with P90.424D. As shown below in Figure 16, the
difference is the location hole for the hitch pin. It is relocated from the top to the rear
of the 2" pin hole. This is to allow the cargo to slide past the Hanger Plate Weldment
Arms unimpeded.
Important Dump Bed Installation Notes
1. Because of the flexibility of the Adj. Curved Tire Pads, there may be more than one
location, that will work with a particular forklift model.
2. The bed of the transport vehicle is required to be tied down, while transporting the
PIGGYBACK
may be purchased through our Parts Department. Tie-down P/N is 629-109 and
two per transport vehicle are required.
3. If the bed frame is of a c-channel construction, it will require additional welded
1" thick stiffening plates, on the inside of each bed frame rail. Measure the distance
from the bed frame pivot point to the rear of the bed frame rail. The stiffening plates
should extend that same distance forward of the pivot point.
4. An additional ramp of flat stock may be necessary on the leading edge of the 6" x 6"
Angle Bed Stiffener, to facilitate dumping without catching load on the front lip.
