Push the floating panels, one at a time, towards the front of the vehicle. A few inches before
complete closure, pull down the sliding button to lower the panel pin in order to facilitate closure
of the panel. Make sure the pin entered the holding hole (see Figure 3-14).
Danger!
Always use the handle to hold the floating panel. Holding the floating panel by its edge
will cause severe injuries to hands and/or fingers.

system and wear on mechanical parts.

Exit the hopper (if need be).
21.
Using the provided hoe, rake small pieces of garbage out of the clean-out traps.
22.
Clean the area with pressurized water.
23.
Close both clean-out trap doors.
Caution!
When parking the truck overnight after cleaning the hopper, Labrie Enviroquip Group
recommends leaving the truck's clean-out traps slightly open if frost is forecast in your
area. This should prevent rain accumulation at the bottom of the hopper and ice build-up
around the packer cylinders. This will also help you use the truck right away when
returning to work in the morning.
Never use the packer when its components are stuck in ice, as damage or
malfunction of said components may result.
Before each work shift make sure all clean-out trap doors are securely closed.
