OPERATIONS SECTION

F O R E W O R D t

This vehicle is designed to save time and labor. Its general usages may be described briefly as fitting into two classes. (1) Gen- eral cargo work such as requires the use of a small trailer, and (2) a trailer that will dump, for particular use in moving earth, soil and other matters that can more easily be unloaded by dumping*

The proper use of this trailer will save valuable man hours. It has been thoroughly inspected, and like any other piece of equipment, t o maintain it in proper operating condition, common sense should be used in handIing the equipment. It should not be overloaded.

P U R P O S E

In the following pages we have described how to take care of this . unit and handle it in such a way that it will give maximum swvice and dependable performance. These instructions are pubIished for the information and guidance of those units or individuals hax-ing charge of the operation, maintenance and repair of this equipment. They include descriptions of the trailer, as well as instructions for its opera- tion, inspection and maintenance.

DESCRIPTION OF EQUIPMENT

The CONVERT0 Dump Trailer

What it is:-A two wheeled pneumatic-tired, I,$ hn, a11 steel trailer fo r both general cargo and dumping duties.

What it comprises:-Its components, 9 sub-assembIies. L

1. Frame Assembly 2. Wheel and Axle Assembly 3. Stanchion Assembly 4. Lunette Eye Assembly 5. Body Assembly 6. Dump Release Assembly 7. TaiIgate Assembly 8. Tailgate Trip Assembly 9. Tailgate Lock Assembly

C o ~ p l i n g the Trailer

Due care should be exercised when coupling or uncoupling the trailer so that it will not get out of control.

A rope (not furnished) should be run through the hole at the top of "A" & 'WB" (Illustration 2). This rope shouId be long enough to reach the motivating vehicle. It is for convenience in dumping the trailer and in operating the tailgate.

To couple-up the trailer to a jeep, lift up the pintle hook lock, and raise the latch of the jeep. Raise the tongue of the trailer and place the Lunette Eye IIllustration 1, C) in the hook. Close the pintle hook and be sure that the lock is down in place.

Ofisrating the Stanchion

After the trailer has been coupIed to the jeep or truck, pull out the Stanchion "T Pin" (Illustration 4, E, Page 7) and raise the Stanchion (Illustration I, 30) to a parallel position with the tongue of the trailer. The Stanchion "T Pin" will automatically be drawn back to position when the proper position is reached. Before un- coupIing trailer, pull Stanchion "T Pin" and lower the Stanchion to a 90 degree angIe to the tongue of the trailer. As soon as this position is reached, release Stanchion "T Pin" and it wilI lock ir. place.

Using the Trailer When using the trailer for cargo work, the permanent body lock

(Illustration 2, C: and H) should be fastened. This acts as a safety catch to make certain that the body will remain in a parallel position

to the frame. A hole in the tailgab permits the attachment of a nozzle and the ultimate distribution of Uquids (from their own con- tainer) carried in the trailer. When not used for this purpose, a cover plate (Illustration 3, E) is attached to the rear of the tailgate as are slots far holding the cover plate.

When the trailer is to be used for dumpjng, the permanent body lock (Illustration 2, H) should be released. This is an added safety lock. It can be released by unscrewing the Permanent Body Lock Thumb Nut until the Permanent Body Lock Bolt clears the Perma- nent Hold Down Strike. (Illustration 2, C).

Dumfii~tg the Trnilar

The trailer is dumped by activating the dump release assembly. This is accernpIished by pulling the dump reIease assembly lever for- ward. You may do this either by puIling the lever fomvard manually or by manually pulling a rope attached at "E" (Illustration 2). This releases the body dumping catch shown a t "G" (Illustration 2). To bring the body back to its original position, pull down on the front of the body bin untiI it is in a horizontal position and the plunger rests on the strike.

Opesafing the Tailgofe

The tailgate ipl opened by activating the Tailgate Trip AaaembIy. This is accomplished by pulling the Tailgate Trip AssembIy Handle forward. You may do this by either pulling the handle forward manually or by manually pulling the rope attached at A (Illustra tion 2) . When the tailgate is closed, it is automaticaIly locked in place at the tailgate catch (Illustration 3, B),

Preparing the Trtiilsr for Storage

Jack up trailer and remove tires from wheels. Keep tires in a cool dark room. Since painting is a. preservative, the only parts that need additional treatment are the unpainted materiais on the trailer. These should be treated with a few drops of oil or a thin film of grease. Particularly is this important in the following: Bearings and plunger in the body dump release mechanism, the spring plunger in the lunette eye assembly, and the bearing blocks in the tailgate release assembly.

Rigging Poi~t ts When Transporting the Trailer (When not crated)

Draw a rope through the Lunette Eye (Tllustration 1, C) and fasten securely to the flow. Then draw a rope through the holes in each skid plate (Illustration 3, R) ; and fasten swnrely t o the floor.

MAINTENANCE MANUAL 9

1. The Frame Assembly THE FRAME--is an all steel construction and consists princi-

pally of two 3 inch channels, parallely placed, with a front lateral tie of 3 inch channel and a rear lateral tie of 2 inch channel, reinforced with 11 gauge vertical gusset braces. Due to its rugged design and materials, the frame normally should require very little attention. Vehicles which have been in an accident of any serious nature which may result in sprung pads should be carefully checked for proper alignment t o avoid tire wear, Excessive tire wear or the swaying of the trailer may indicate a sprung or misaligned frame. The most convenient way to cchck alignment is t o turn the trailer bottom side up and checking should be done from the front of each frame side- rail and also from the ,rear end. The tongue should also be checked a t the same time.

If the Perma- nent Body Lock

be knocked off, a 1) new one can be welded into place. It is also a sim- PERMANENT HOLD DOWN LOCK ple matter to re- nlace the Permanent Body Lock Bolt or Permanent Body Lock Thumb hut, in the event they are lost or broken.

A Zerk Fit t ing is on the front end of the frame (Illustration 6). It should be lubricated with a Zerk Gun every 1000 miles or monthly. Use CG1, General Purpose Grease, No. 1 or 0 fo r lubrication.

2. Wheel and Axle Assembly v A. WHEEL ASSEMBLY

Removing Tires from the Wheel

First, let the air escape fmm the tire by removing the valve stem core. Then insert; the tire tool in the slot of the rim and pry d a m while tapping the opposite side of the rim with a hammer. When reinstalling the tire, inflate the tire before instaIIing and make sure that the bead lock ring (Illus- tration 12) is properly fitted into the

Page 11: Converto Dumping Trailer TM5-9084

l a MAINTENANCE MANUAL MAINTENANCE MANUAL 11

Care and Imsfiectfon of Tires It ia recommended that an air preasure of 36 pounds be main-

tained on these tires. The pressure should be checked every 500 miles or every 5 days. Wheels should be checked to insure they are running true, and that all stud nuts are tight. a

Removing Whesk from Hub d Lower stanchion to support the front end of the trailer. Next, I'

place blocks under front and rear of opposite wheels. Then looaen the stud nuts (Illustration I, E), about a quarter of a turn. Place jack under axle and elevate. Remove atud nuts and pull off wheel.

Re#lacement of Worn w Broken Studs

First, remove the wheel from the hub. Next, remove jam nut from the atud which is to be replaced. (Jam nuts are located on the back side of the hub), Then using a l/z inch punch, drive out the stud or studs, driving from the back side. Finally place new stud in posi- tion with the shoulder placed so that it will fit into the groove in the hub as it is driven into position,

Caution: Studa marked "L" should be used only on the left wheel which is on the left side of the traiIer when the observer stands facing the direction of travel, Studs marked "R" should be used only on the right wheel. If studs are used on wrong wheel, the nuts will work loose and wear out or break the studs, and the wheel will come off.

Wheel Bearings

The wheels are m i e d on two opposed tapered rolier bearings. Bearings are adjustable for wear and their satisfactory operation and long life depends upon periodic attention and carrect lubrication. To

DIAGRAM OF THE TRAILER WHEEL

test whether adjustment is necesessary or not: (1) raise the trailer with a jack ao that tires clear the floor. (2) With hands, test the side- wise shake of the wheel. If bearings are adjusted too loose, the shake of the wheel will be perceptible. If bearing adjustment is too tight, the bearings will bind and the roIIers may break or become overheated.

T o adjust: I. With wheels still on jack, remove hub cap, 2. Tighten adjusting nut until wheel binds, at the

same time rotating the wheel to make sure all bearing surfaces are in proper contact.

3. Then back off nut about IJ6 turn or more if nec- essary, making sure wheeI rotates freely.

4. Replace locknut. 5. When hub is completely assembled, test wheel

shake before removing jack.

When replacing hubs, the hubs with the right hand threaded studs are placed on the right hand side. Those with the left hand thread, on the Ieft side.

I t is recommended that every 5,000 miles, or every six months, the wheels be removed and cleaned, the bearings repacked with new grease (WB2, wheel bearing grease). If the grease seals are damaged or the bearings or bearing cups are pitted, they should be replaced.

B. AXLE ASSEMBLY

If the trailer "whips" or the tires become excessiveIy worn or scuffed on the inside or outside of the trailer, the difficulty may be due to a loose wheel, shifting of load, or a bent axle. First, check to see that the load is properly distributed. Then cheek the stud nuts on both wheels to see that they are tight and that both tires are in- flated to the correct pressure of 35 pounds. If the whipping persists after checking the above features, then the trouble may be due t o a sprung axle. Inasmuch as the axIe cannot be straightened except in a well equipped shop with a power press, if this occurs in the field, it is best to replace the axle.
