tipper's range of action while it is in
operation. Before operating the tipper,
the operator must make sure that there
are no obstacles, people or animals
nearby
Proceed with the maximum care to
prevent the truck from tipping when
working on soft ground
Only perform tipping with the vehicle
in a horizontal position, properly
blocked on stable ground and with
parking brake engaged
While tipping in covered areas, take
particular care not to touch any beams,
the roof, etc.
Never raise the flatbed near overhead
electric lines or similar
Take great care when opening the
side panels of the flatbed. The material,
inside the flatbed, might push the
board hard in a dangerous way
Do not perform tipping in strong
winds
Take great care when unloading
muddy materials or materials that might
stick to the bottom of the flatbed. If
required, take all the precautions
needed to prevent any dangerous
situation arising during unloading
Make sure that the side panel on the
unloading side is open while tipping
If the flatbed is not raised correctly,
stop tipping, immediately lower the
flatbed and look for possible causes of
the problem
At low temperatures, always tip the
flatbed very carefully and check that
the load is descending evenly
Never unload the flatbed with the
side panels closed
The operating pressure of the
hydraulic system is pre-adjusted by
the manufacturer and must not be
changed under any circumstances.
Changing the operating pressure
invalidates the warranty
The operator must oversee correct
execution of tipping and lowering, and
must not leave the monitoring and
control zone so that he can intervene
rapidly, if needed.
USING THE TIPPER

BEFORE INITIAL START-UP
Before initial start-up, or after a period
of inactivity, check the hydraulic oil level
in the reservoir ((1) fig. 83), through the
rod incorporated in the cap ((2) fig. 83).
83
The oil level must be checked with the
flatbed raised, following the instructions
in the "Maintenance" section in the
"Routine Maintenance" chapter, and
with the safety strut engaged (fig. 90).
If it is necessary to top-up, use an
oil for hydraulic controls with a high
viscosity index; the recommended
product is Petronas Idraulicar 32 HVI.
