DUMP OPERATIONS

When dumping a load, always carry out the dumping operation in
accordance with the signals from the flagman.
When dumping large rocks, operate the dump body slowly.
Do not load the dump body while it is still raised.
When carrying out inspection with the dump body raised, always use
the body pivot pins, set the dump lever to the HOLD position and lock
it securely. For details, see "BODY PIVOT PIN (PAGE 3-46)".
Operate the dump body as follows.
1. Place shift lever (1) at the N position, and set parking brake
switch (2) to the PARKING position.
2. Move dump lever (3) to the RAISE position, then depress the
accelerator pedal to raise the dump body.
If the dump lever is released when it is at the RAISE position,
it is held at the RAISE position and the dump body will continue
to rise.
The dumping speed increases in proportion to the engine
speed.
3. When the dump body rises to the previously set position, dump
lever (3) returns to the HOLD position. The dump body is held
at that position.
If it is necessary to raise the dump body further, operate dump
lever (3) to the RAISE position and the dump body will rise. If
dump lever (3) is released, dump lever (3) will return to the
HOLD position and the dump body will stop at that position.
