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

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.
Step 2: Securely attach the hopper to the fork carriage with the safety chain. Wrap the chain around part of the fork
carriage; then 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 frame of the hopper.
Do not hook the handle to the chute because 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. Tile 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.
