NATIONAL STANDARDS
US OSHA Rule 1910.178 (29 CFR 1910.178; the “Rule”) classifies this device as a “front- end attachment”
whenever it is mounted on a lift truck. The Rule incorporates American National Standard ANSI/ITSDF B56.1
(the “Standard”). The Standard is published by the Industrial Truck Standards Development Foundation on
its website (www.itsdf.org) where it is freely downloadable at http://www.itsdf.org/cue/b56-standards.html.
Before putting this device into service, acquire a copy of the Standard. Apply all relevant parts of Part II: For
the User. If instructions provided in this manual apparently conflict with the Standard, then apply the
instructions in the Standard. Vestil requests that you immediately bring to its attention any conflicts you
discover by contacting its TECHNICAL SERVICE department. Contact information is provided on the cover
page of this manual.
USING THE HOPPER
Because this product is self-dumping, it helps to prevent non-compliance with US Federal OSHA rule
1910.178(m)(5). In particular, subpart 1910.178(m)(5)(iii), requires operators of powered trucks to fully lower
the “load engaging means” (forks), neutralize truck controls, and set brakes whenever they dismount a lift
truck and remain within 25ft of it. By allowing lift truck operators to remain at the controls of their trucks
throughout the dumping process, there is no need to dismount the lift truck while dumping the hopper.
Confirm that the hopper chute is latched to the base frame (i.e. NOT released and cannot rotate)
before filling the chute with refuse. Standard self-dumping hoppers are suitable for use indoors and
outdoors and in most industrial and commercial settings. They are intended to be used with rider forklift
trucks as a means for dumping non-hazardous refuse into larger trash receptacles. The chute rotates
through a 70° dump angle. D-series hoppers can be dumped in 2 ways: 1) Manually—by pulling the release
cable; and 2) Remotely—by pressing the bumper plate against an object.
Step 1: Drive the lift truck forward and insert the forks into the fork tubes. Drive forward until either: 1) the tips
of the forks begin to stick out of the ends of the tubes; or 2) if the forks are not long enough to extend all the
way through the tubes, drive forward as far as possible. If your hopper includes tine lock option D-PIN, drive
as far forward as possible. Then, insert the tine lock pins (14-612-001 through the pin holes in the pin brackets
at the end of each fork tube. Secure the tine lock pins in place with hitch pins (45286).
Step 2: Wrap the chain around part of the fork carriage. Connect the quick link at the end of the chain to a
link in the chain with as little slack as possible.
DO NOT wrap the release cable around any part of your body, especially your hands. DO NOT
attach the handle to your clothing. If you do and the chute is released, you might be seriously injured.
Step 3: If you will release the chute manually by pulling the release handle, store the handle within reach of
the forklift operator, for example by hooking it to the frame of the cab. Make sure that there is plenty of
slack in the cable to avoid accidentally releasing/dumping the chute.
NOTE: If you will use the bumper plate mechanism to dump the chute, attach the handle to the hopper
frame. Do not hook the handle to the chute! It could be torn from the cable when the chute is dumped.
Step 4: Drive the forklift to the trash receptacle. Before raising the hopper, unlock the latch lever by pulling
the finger tab until the lock disengages the latch bar. See diagrams with Step 5.
Step 5: Raise the forks and tilt the forklift mast backwards (towards the cab). Tilting the mast backwards
makes it easier to release the latch. The hopper can now be dumped manually or remotely:
A) Manually: elevate the entire hopper above the side wall of the dumpster. See diagram A. Tilt the mast
forward slightly and pull the release cable.
NOTE: NEVER wrap the release cable around any part of your body, particularly fingers, hands, and arms.
B) Remotely: elevate the
hopper so that the
bumper plate can
contact the side of the
dumpster at or near the
top. See diagram B. Drive
the forklift toward the
dumpster and press the
bumper plate against the
top of the side wall. Tilt
the mast forward slightly,
if necessary, to dump the
chute.
