Operating the controls
The MegaDumper controls are designed to allow safe, intuitive operation of the machine.
Control Panel identification
The MegaDumper may be fitted with a variety of different controls, depending on the
operational and safety requirements of the machine. Use the following table to identify the
correct instructions for your machine.
It is important to understand how to use the controls correctly, as improper operation
may result in a safety hazard or damage to the machine.
The control panel is normally atop the powerpack cover, but on some models, it is
mounted onto a separate enclosure.
