Safety The Trout River Trailer is not “just a trailer”, it is also a powerful machine with various mechanisms that could be potentially dangerous, the following are some general safety rules pertaining to trout river trailers: • • • • • •

• •

Never enter trailer with conveyor in operation When conveyor is running be sure to keep all body parts, clothing, etc. clear of inspection doors, conveyor belt, or any other moving parts; failure to do so could result in serious injury Be aware of the tailgate position, and stand clear when opening or closing When trailer is unloading be sure to stand clear of the rear of the trailer, as to not get injured from load exiting the tub Ladder is designed for a maximum of 250 pounds; do not exceed this limit. Top ladder rung is not meant to be a step, it is only there as a “hand-hold”; do not use as a step Trailer hydraulic system is designed to run in access of 2500 psi, this amount of pressure could be very dangerous; always take care when connecting hydraulic lines, that it is done properly, and replace any damaged hydraulic components immediately. Always be sure system pressure is relieved before maintenance o Always connect return line first and disconnect last Air system can also be dangerous, be aware of air lines, that they are not damaged, and relieve system pressure before maintenance When working on the trailer, be sure all power systems are disconnected, unless otherwise instructed or needed, always be aware of present dangers

The Hycube •

• •

The Trout River Hycube was created with volume in mind. o Some things have changed, but underneath the changes is Trout Rivers same trusted “live bottom” conveyor technology The Hycube has a full width belt, measuring 83” wide With side walls that are straight up from the belt, available in various heights, the Hycube is designed for maximum volume

The Hycube’s purpose • •

•

The Hycube was designed for customers who haul materials that are less dense o This means they need more volume to reach the same max payload (Figure 2) Examples of what the Hycube is designed to haul are: o Agricultural products o Mulch (Figure 1) o Woodchips o Soils o Etc. The Hycube is not designed for: o Gravel/aggregates o Asphalt o Materials larger than 6” in diameter o Demolition/scrap ▪ The hauling of these materials will void warranty Figure 1
