1. Tip platform and reverse toward bin. The hydraulic pivot on the drawbar enhances the operators ability to square the trailer to the bin. Lifting lugs locate into forklift channels.
2.'Ashmore' patented coupling automatically latches onto bin. The bin is then dragged onto the platform with a powerfull hydraulic winch.
3. The bin is lowered to horizontal and is now ready to be loaded by the grape harvester or by other means. At this point the contents can be weighed.
4. When bin is loaded - reverse into truck. Raise bin on scissor lift and the winch pushes the bin onto the trailer. The unit lifts to 1700mm, easily catering for all truck trays including the goose neck on drop deck trailers.
