Product Details
The 5 cu. yd. self-dumping heavy duty steel hopper with bump release, model D-500-HD, has a capacity of 6000 lb and is designed for efficient discarding of material products. It features a durable blue powder coated steel construction that stands up to tough environments. Key attributes include an automatic return to the upright position, full length fork tubes for easy portability, a safety chain restraint to ensure secure transporting while on a forklift, and a manual pull cable that allows for dumping from the driving position, along with a front hopper release. This self-dumping hopper also facilitates compliance with OSHA general industry rule 29 CFR 1910.178(m)(5)(iii) by enabling lift truck operators to remain at the controls of their truck during the dumping process. It is important to note that OSHA requires contacting the manufacturer of your forklift for written approval for the use of any forklift attachments.
