Loading over the Trailer Sheet:

Remember. If loading on uneven ground or a slope, then be mindful that the in-cab weigher

may give a slight false reading of weight. Drive forward slightly onto even ground, check the

weight and then return to your initial loading position.

Also remember to inform the loader of this process.

Securing the Trailer:

Once the trailer has been loaded and it's safe to do so the

driver must walk around both side of the vehicle to ensure
there is no debris hanging from the top of the trailer

edges. Then, ensure the sheet is correctly in position

before taking the vehicle onto the road. All vehicles must
be fully sheeted before leaving site.

When checking the load also check areas that may house HSF18
the product and cause it to blow away whilst driving down RASSoW15Q
