m Before entering the body, ensure that the area Is clear and the discharge control is in the in-cab position. Lift the tailgate on its slotted hinges clear of the lower locking forks and raise It fully. Then, using the two-handed safety controls, lower it to the 1.0m stop position. Prop it on the two telescopic side struts and operate the blade to sweep the hopper clear before starting work. Inspect all welded joints, ensure that the safety curtain can stop rubbish flying past, examine the ejector ram mounting eye and blade condition (especially the cast wear pads). All bolts should be tight. Check the nose cone area for signs of fatigue; when satisfied, lower and secure the tailgate.
