Cylinders. Midland Belly/Bottom Dump Trailer 4.6MB, Belly/Bottom Dump Trailer | Manualzz

4.8 AIR SYSTEM (cont'd)

4.8.3 CYLINDERS

Six or eight inch cylinders are used to open and close the discharge gates. Switches in the cab or on the side of the frame of the trailer control the air flow to the cylinder(s). A filter and an oiler in the system provide clean, lubricated air to each cylinder to insure long life.

Composite cylinders are optional on the Clam Trailer and standard on the

CUL trailer.

Trailers equipped with the composite cylinders do not need the filter and oiler.

Keep the cylinder rams clean at all times to prevent damaging the seals or wiper. This is particularly true when hauling hot asphalt, which can splash when dumping and stick to the ram. Clean rams before retracting.

NOTE: Be sure to keep arms, legs and body away from the gates.
