CHAIN CASE The conveyor belt is driven by the hydraulic motor which transfers power to the drive chain and the drive sprockets located inside the chain case. Drive chain should be adjusted so that there is approximately 1/4"(6.35mm) slack but no more than 1"(25.4mm) slack midpoint between the sprockets. Adjustment is made by loosening the two bolts that fasten the motor mount to the front tank motor bracket and tightening the adjusting bolt, which will move the motor and attached front sprocket assembly forward.

HYDRAULIC RESERVOIR The reservoir tank is located across the front of the frame. It supplies hydraulic fluid to the hydraulic pump and conveyor belt drive motor. It has a magnetic drain on the bottom for changing the hydraulic fluid. There is a sight gage for inspecting hydraulic fluid level on the side of the tank. BREATHER CAP The breather cap on top of the reservoir is pressurized to keep out contaminants and keep fumes from entering the atmosphere.

BUCKET LIFTING CYLINDERS The two large cylinders raise the lift arms and bucket to its dumping position. BUCKET TRIPPING CYLINDERS After the hopper is raised and positioned, two small cylinders are used to trip the hopper and remove the debris. The dump chains, sprockets and small cylinders trip the bucket after it is raised.

HYDRAULIC COMPONENTS BUCKET MANIFOLD The bucket manifold, a sequence valve, runs the two functions of the bucket. It both raises and trips the bucket. It is centrally located on the upper cross tube. CYLINDERS The large and small cylinders are of similar design. They are single acting cylinders. Hydraulic pressure from the towing vehicle raises the cylinders and the weight of the bucket and gravity lowers them.
