    Never tip the vehicle load with the sheet still over the trailer as

    this will cause a vacuum and damage the sheet pole and sheet.


    When opening the rear doors to tip:



    Open the smaller door first. Once the door locks have been

    opened Caution must be taken.


    Now stand towards the trailer side walls and pull the door open

    to avoid loose materials from falling onto you.






    Open the large door second. Once both doors have been

    opened secure them to the side walls of the trailer with the

    chains and locks attached.






           Before tipping can begin the airbags need to be

                      lowered to give the trailer more stability.                                                                                                              RASSoW11Q
