Product Overview
Congratulations on your purchase of a Simpro Dumpmaster bin-tipping machine.
In production for more than three decades, Dumpmaster may be the most
sophisticated and versatile bin lifter on the market today.
With a modular design, Dumpmaster can be used in numerous applications,
ranging from emptying rubbish bins into skips to pouring food ingredients into
mixers. No matter the application, Dumpmaster continues proving to be a safe,
reliable, and economical solution, for year after year.
1.1 Key features
Key features of Dumpmaster include:
1. A unique tipping action whereby bins are lifted straight up, and then
gently rolled forward around the lip of the skip or hopper being emptied into.
Benefits of this design include a small `footprint’, and a wide range of
tipping heights available, from 700mm to more than six metres;
2. A standard weight capacity of 250kg; 3. A reliable, low-maintenance
design; 4. A hot-dip galvanised frame and cradle (also available in
304-grade stainless steel); 5. Standard cradles to suit a variety of wheelie
bins,
rollout carts, Eurobins, drums, and containers; 6. A modular design which can
be easily
modified to suit a wide range of non-standard bin sizes, shapes, and weights.
1.2 Construction
Dumpmaster consists of a steel frame with vertical masts and stabilizing legs,
bin cradle, hydraulic ram, hydraulic powerpack, powerpack cover, control
panel, electronic control systems, guarding, castor wheels, and power lead or
charging cable.
1.3 Mechanism
When the RAISE button is pressed, a hydraulic ram is extended, which pulls on
an arrangement of chains, causing the bin cradle to travel vertically in the
masts. The cradle is inverted at the appropriate height by an arrangement of
arms, rollers, and a curved track.
The ram is supplied by a hydraulic power pack, which may have a 3-phase,
1-phase, battery, or compressed-air motor. Electrical, hydraulic, and / or
mechanical control mechanisms allow the operator to raise or lower the bin in
a controlled manner.
1.4 Safe Working Load
The Safe Lifting Capacity of the standard Dumpmaster is 250kg (550lb).
Safe Working Load (SWL) is a gross figure, referring to the weight of the bin,
its contents, and any other objects placed on the cradle. Custom machines may
be specified with different Safe Working Loads. The rating plate should be the
first point of reference to determine SWL on any given machine.
Never attempt to lift bins that are heavier than the factory-specified Safe
Working Load.
1.5 Duty cycle
The duty cycle of Dumpmaster depends on the type of powerpack that is fitted
to the machine, environmental factors, and the manner in which the machine is
used. The figures provided below are indicative only.

1.7 Noise emissions
The noise emissions of Dumpmaster do not typically exceed ~60 dB(A) at the
operator’s ear. Hearing protection is recommended if operating the machine for
extended periods.
ISO standards for machinery safety specify that noise emissions are to be
measured in Aweighted decibels (dB(A)), a unit of volume which is adjusted to
reflect the sensitivity of human hearing. The measurements are taken at a
point 1.6 metres above the ground at the operator’s working position.

2.4 Battery charging
Battery Dumpmasters should be recharged anytime the voltmeter reads less than
24 Volts. The procedure to recharge the batteries is as follows;-
- Place the machine in a secure area and lock both foot-brakes. 2) Connect a
1-phase extension cord into the IP66 appliance inlet on the side of the
machine (opposite the control panel). 3) Connect the extension lead into a 1-phase power outlet, and turn the wall switch ON. 4) Wait while the batteries are recharged. If the batteries a completely flat, a full charge
will take around four hours. The machine can be used while being recharged. The onboard charger automatically adapts to different inputs (85-264VAC 50/60Hz 1-ph), manages the charging cycle to maximise battery life, and prevents overcharging. For optimum battery life, Dumpmaster should be placed on charge overnight and on weekends (even if the batteries are already fully charged), as per §3.4.3.1. The charger delivers enough power to empty a 100kg bin in about 3 minutes, which means that a battery-powered Dumpmaster can be left plugged in and used as a mains-powered machine, as per §1.5.

3.3 Cradle Systems
Dumpmaster can be fitted with a variety of cradles, all of which share a
common arrangement of axles, sliding blocks and rollers. These components are
simple and robust, and require little maintenance.
The cradle is not powered down it is lowered only by gravity.
3.3.1 Type-E cradle
Dumpmaster is fitted as standard with a Type-E cradle, which lifts wheelie
bins from the base and retains them using bolt-on wheel catches. The Type-E
cradle can empty almost all 80L, 120L, 140L and 240L wheelie bins that comply
with the EN840 standard.
– The Type-E cradle wheel catches are suitable for standard EN840 wheelie bins
from brands such as Europlast, Sulo, ESE, Weber, Craemer, OnePlastics and
Trident.
– If the wheel spacing on a 240L wheelie bin is slightly differently to the
catch spacing, the wheels may jam against the catches, making it difficult to
fully emplace the bin. If this occurs, the right-hand wheel catch can be
simply removed all wheelie bins can be securely retained using the left-hand
catch only.
– If the bin wheels are more than ~50mm wide, they may jam between the
turndown on the wheel catch and the side of the cradle, making it difficult to
fully emplace the bin. If this occurs, flat washers can be inserted onto the
catch mounting bolts to increase the available spacing.
3.3.1.1 Type-E cradle maintenance The Type-E cradle requires no regular
maintenance, but the cradle axle can benefit from an occasional light
application of silicone lubricant as per §3.9.

3.3.3 Type-A cradle
Dumpmaster can be optionally fitted with a Type-A cradle, which lifts and
retains rollout carts using a bar and latch mechanism. The Type-A cradle can
empty almost all 24-Gal, 32-Gal, 48-Gal, 64-Gal, and 96-Gal carts that comply
with the ANSI Z245.60 (Type B) standard.
3.3.3.1 Type-A cradle maintenance The Type-A cradle requires no regular
maintenance, but the cradle axle can benefit from an occasional light
application of silicone lubricant as per §3.9.
3.3.4 Type-D cradle
Dumpmaster can be optionally fitted with a Type-D cradle, which lifts and
retains Eurobins using a trunnion-lift mechanism. The Type-D cradle can empty
almost all 200L and 300L Eurobins that comply with the DIN9797 standard. A
smaller version be fitted for 120L Eurobins.
3.3.4.1 Type-D cradle maintenance The Type-D cradle requires no regular
maintenance, but the cradle axle can benefit from an occasional light
application of silicone lubricant as per §3.9.
3.3.5 Type-X/CB/AB cradle
Dumpmaster can be optionally fitted with a Type-X cradle, which can be adapted
to lift and retain various non-standard bins, buckets, drums, and containers.
The Type-X cradle has steel bucket pressing with a pattern of lasercut holes,
allowing hoops, catches and packers to be attached in the required location.
Additionally, the Type-C and Type-A cradles can be fitted with a steel bucket
pressing, allowing them to be adapted to lift and retain various non-standard
bins, buckets, drums, and containers. The bucket pressing has a pattern of
lasercut holes, allowing hoops, catches and packers to be attached in the
required location.
Type-C and Type-A cradles with the bucket pressing installed are known
respectively as TypeCB and Type-AB cradles.
When using a hoop retainer to empty bins, it should be positioned so that the
bin falls no more than 25mm (1in) when the cradle is inverted. A hand truck,
dolly or other lifting aid should be used when moving heavy non-wheeled
containers such as 205L drums.
3.3.5.1 Type-X/CB/AB cradle maintenance The Type-X, Type-CB and Type-AB
cradles require no regular maintenance, but the cradle axle can benefit from
an occasional light application of silicone lubricant as per §3.9.
3.3.6 Cradle jams while raising
Most cradle jams while raising can be classed as either an overload fault or
mechanical fault. The problem can often be identified and resolved onsite, as
set out below.
3.3.6.1 Overload fault If the cradle starts to lift when the RAISE button is
pressed, but then stalls out even though the motor continues to run, the
problem may be an overload fault;-
1. Lower the cradle to ground level, open the door and remove the bin. 2.
Manually remove some material from the bin to lighten it. 3. Try emptying the
bin again.
If the pressure-relief valve is set incorrectly, the cradle can stall even
when lifting bins that are within the Safe Working Load listed on the rating
plate. The pressure-relief valve may only be adjusted by competent personnel,
with prior authorisation from Simpro.
3.3.6.2 Mechanical fault If the cradle starts to lift when the RAISE button is
pressed, but then stalls out even with no bin in the cradle, the problem may
be a mechanical fault;-
1. If possible, lower the cradle to ground level, open the door and remove
the bin. 2. Attempt to visually identify the cause of the jamming. The most
likely faults are:
a. The lifting chain being derailed from the plastic chain guide at the top of
the mast (accessed by removing the small cover at the top of the mast).
b. The mast being bent or damaged, jamming one of the mast rollers. c. Part of
one of the curved tipping tracks’ being bent, interfering with the correct movement of the follower roller. d. Lack of lubrication on the follower roller or the main cradle axle. e. The cradle being out of level, due to poor adjustment of the lifting chains or a breakage. f. The roller arm(s) being pressed too firmly against the
tipping
track’ due to the
cradle sitting out of level, or not being properly centred between the masts.
3. Lubricate, straighten and/or repair the components that are causing the
jam.
Contact your Simpro agent for support if required. 4. Close the door and test
to see if the cradle raises correctly. 5. Once repairs are complete, carry out
two complete tipping cycles to make sure the
problem is fully resolved.
3.3.7 Cradle jams while lowering
Most cradle jams while lowering can be classed as either a hydraulic fault,
electrical fault, or mechanical fault. The problem can often be identified and
resolved onsite, as set out below.
The cradle is not powered down it is lowered only by gravity. See §3.7.5 for
a schematic diagram of the hydraulic system.
3.3.7.1 Hydraulic or electrical fault When the LOWER button is pressed, the
lowering valve should emit a `click’ sound as it opens. If it does not, the
problem may be either a hydraulic or electrical fault;-
1. Disable the safety interlock as per §3.8.3.1 and open the safety door.
User Manual // Simpro Dumpmaster® Original Instructions // English // v126.0
// July 2023 // Page 20
a. If the door needs to be opened to access the interlock, it can be unlocked
by removing the ram cover beside the control panel, and manually activating
the cradle lowered’ microswitch at the base of the mast. The interlock should then be disabled, and the ram cover replaced before proceeding. b. If the machine has a CAT3 safety-monitoring system, the door can be unlocked by making specific control inputs contact your Simpro agent. 2\. Attach a lifting sling to a forklift or crane, and slowly take the weight of the cradle. Never place any part of your body underneath the cradle unless it is securely supported. 3\. Remove the powerpack cover. 4. Unscrew the fitting attaching the steel hydraulic pipe to the powerpack, and hold the end of the pipe over a container with a capacity of at least two litres. 5. Lower the cradle slowly with the forklift, collecting the oil in the container. 6. Once the cradle is fully lowered, remove the bin. 7. Reconnect the hydraulic pipe and fitting, and refill the oil tank. 8. Check that the lowering valve coil is receiving an electrical signal. An LED lamp should glow on the coil plug when the LOWER button is pressed. If it does not, check the up/down switch and wiring for loose or broken connections. 9. If the coil is receiving an electrical signal but not opening, it may need to be cleaned: a. Remove the coil from the valve stem. b. Unscrew the lowering valve cartridge. c. Clean the cartridge with compressed air. d. Once cleaned, replace the lowering valve by reversing this procedure. 10. Close the door and test to see if the cradle lowers correctly. a. If the machine has a CAT3 safety-monitoring system, before testing it will be necessary to re-enable the safety door interlock as per §3.8.3.1 and RESET the safety system as per §2.3.4.1. 11. If the problem persists, the lowering valve coil 0250090067 or cartridge 0250090055 may need to be replaced contact your Simpro agent for support. 12. Once repairs are complete, re-enable the safety door interlock as per §3.8.3.1 and carry out two complete tipping cycles to make sure the problem is fully resolved. 3.3.7.2 Mechanical fault If the lowering valve is operating correctly (emits a
click’ sound when the LOWER button is pressed), the problem may be a
mechanical fault;-
1. Disable the safety door interlock as per §3.8.3.1 and open the door. a. If
the door needs to be opened to access the interlock, it can be unlocked by
removing the ram cover beside the control panel, and manually activating the
`cradle lowered’ microswitch at the base of the mast. The interlock should
then be disabled, and the ram cover replaced before proceeding. b. If the
machine has a CAT3 safety-monitoring system, the door can be unlocked by
making specific control inputs contact your Simpro agent.
2. Provide support for the cradle, either with a structure beneath or with a
sling holding it to a forklift or crane. Allow for it to fall no more than
50mm.
Never place any part of your body underneath the cradle unless it is securely
supported. 3. Attempt to visually identify the cause of the jamming. The most
likely faults are:
a. The lifting chain being derailed from the plastic chain guide at the top of
the mast (accessed by removing the two cover-plates at the top of the mast).
b. The mast being bent or damaged, jamming one of the mast rollers. c. Part of
one of the curved tipping tracks’ being bent, interfering with the correct movement of the follower roller. d. Lack of lubrication on the follower roller or the main cradle axle. e. The cradle being out of level, due to poor adjustment of the lifting chains or a breakage. f. The roller arm(s) being pressed too firmly against the

3.4 Electrical Systems (battery)
If you do not operate a battery-powered machine, please disregard this
section.
Battery Dumpmasters are fitted with two 12V/20Ah deep-cycle GEL VRLA batteries
in series, a digital smart charger, and a series-wound 800W/24VDC motor. The
control circuit is 24VDC.
The motor only runs when the RAISE button is pressed; the cradle is lowered by
gravity alone. As a rule, a full charge is sufficient to empty 10 tonnes of
material, but this is dependent on a number of factors, including the tipping
height and the age of the batteries.
3.4.1 International conformance
Dumpmaster is fitted with a digital smart charger which accepts 1-phase mains
power at voltages of 85-264VAC and frequencies of 50/60Hz, with a maximum
current draw of 3 Amps. This allows the machine to be charged using 1-phase
power in almost any country or region.
3.4.2 Appliance inlet NZ/AU 0790050272
Dumpmaster is fitted with an IP66-rated appliance socket on the right-hand
side of the machine (opposite the control panel). This allows the machine to
be charged using a regular 1-phase mains extension lead. The standard inlet is
designed to suit IEC Type-I plugs, but other inlets can be specified.
3.4.3 Batteries 0250050004
Dumpmaster is fitted with two 12V/20Ah deep-cycle GEL VRLA batteries in
series, providing 24VDC (nominal) to the powerpack and control circuit. The
batteries should be recharged anytime the voltmeter reads less than 24 Volts,
as set out in §2.4.
The batteries are sealed and maintenance-free, with an operating lifetime of
up to five years. However, battery life is dependent on a number of factors,
including the number of charge cycles, the average discharge depth, and
environmental conditions.
3.4.3.1 Maximising battery life Observing the following rules can help to
maximize the life of the batteries:
– Place the batteries on charge every night (not just when they are flat). –
Do not allow the machine to sit with flat batteries for more than 24 hours. –
Do not operate the machine when the voltmeter reads less than 24V.
Dumpmaster batteries are supplied with a 12-month warranty, separate from the
warranty on the rest of the machine.
3.4.4 Battery charger 0390050006
Dumpmaster is fitted with a digital multi-voltage charger, which accepts
85-264VAC 50/60Hz 1-phase input, drawing up to 3 Amps of current. The charger
outputs up to 6 Amps at 27.2VDC, for a power rating of 160 Watts.
The battery charger is in an enclosed plastic case and protected against
short-circuit, current overload, over-voltage, and over-temperature
conditions.
3.4.5 Circuit breaker 0790050374
Dumpmaster has an auto-resetting 75A circuit breaker fitted to the main
battery cable. This cuts power to the machine if excessive current is being
drawn, helping to protect the electrical systems. It automatically resets
after a period of 1-2 minutes.
Because electric motors draw more current as the voltage decreases, operating the machine with a flat battery may trigger the circuit breaker. Machines produced prior to 2020 were fitted with an 60A automotive blade-fuse instead of a circuit breaker. Fuses are available from Simpro 0790050101 or automotive retailers.
3.4.6 Isolator switch 0210050002
Dumpmaster is fitted with an isolator switch on the forward side of the
powerpack cover. This switch isolates the batteries from the electrical
systems, and should be turned OFF if the machine is to be placed in storage,
or if the powerpack cover needs to be removed.
On some older machines, the batteries will not charge if the isolator switch is turned OFF.
3.4.7 Voltmeter 0790050067
Dumpmaster is fitted with a voltmeter on the control panel, which is used to
indicate the level of charge in the batteries. The batteries should be
recharged anytime the voltmeter reads less than 24 Volts, as set out in §2.4.
Because the voltage will fluctuate when the machine is operated, the charge level should be checked while the machine is at rest. Operating a machine with a flat battery may trip the circuit breaker, as set out in §3.4.5. This helps protect the motor from excessive current draw.
3.4.8 Solar panel Complete Kit 0090040077
Panel 0250050530
Controller 0250050462
If you do not operate a machine with a solar panel, please disregard this section.
Dumpmaster can be fitted with a solar panel kit for use in off-grid locations.
The 80W monocrystalline solar panel (dimensions 930x673x35mm) is mounted on an
adjustable steel bracket at the top of the mast, and charges the battery via a
12V/24V digital regulator.
As per §1.5, in ideal conditions the solar panel provides enough power to dump
about 3,000kg of material each day, which is equivalent to about 30 full
240-litre wheelie bins. There are many factors affecting this figure,
including the season, the amount of sunlight available, cloud cover, panel
alignment and cleanliness, and the condition of the batteries.
To deliver maximum power the solar panel must be correctly aligned, clean, and exposed to direct sunlight throughout the day.
3.4.8.1 Solar panel alignment The solar panel is mounted on an adjustable
steel bracket with one axis of movement. To deliver maximum power, the panel
should be aligned to cast the largest-possible shadow when the sun is at its
highest point in the sky. However, because the bracket has only one axis of
movement, the orientation of the machine itself affects the optimum panel
alignment.
Use the following guidelines to align the solar panel:
User Manual // Simpro Dumpmaster® Original Instructions // English // v126.0 // July 2023 // Page 24
1. Ideally, orient the machine so that adjustment arc of the panel mounting
bracket runs from North to South.
2. If the adjustment arc cannot be oriented North-South, the panel should be
angled at 0° degrees (vertical). While this is suitable close to the equator,
it will progressively reduce the power output at latitudes beyond ±20°
degrees.
3. With the machine in its long-term location, tilt the panel towards the
equator by the same number of degrees as the machine’s geographic latitude.
4. If required, a further 5-10% increase in output can be achieved by tuning
the panel alignment for the Summer and Winter months: a. At the beginning of
Spring, reduce the angle of the panel so it is equal to the machine’s
geographic latitude less 15° degrees. b. At the beginning of Autumn (Fall),
increase the angle of the panel so it is equal to the machine’s geographic
latitude plus 15° degrees.
The panel angles referred to above are measured in degrees of arc from
vertical. Without correct adjustment the solar panel may deliver as little as
20% of the theoretical maximum output. Correctly adjusting the panel when the
machine is installed can increase this figure to ~70%, and adjustment twice a
year can increase output to ~75% of the theoretical maximum.
3.4.8.2 Solar panel cleaning The solar panel should be cleaned every six
months, using a microfiber cloth or damp rag.
Use appropriate height-safety equipment when servicing or cleaning the solar
panel.
3.5 Electrical Systems (3-phase mains)
If you do not operate a 3-phase mains machine, please disregard this section.
Dumpmasters with a 3-phase mains powerpack are generally the same as other
models, but use a 3-phase 2-pole electric motor to drive the hydraulic pump. A
transformer provides 24VDC current to the control systems. In some regions a
VSD is also fitted to provide suitable current to the motor.
The motor only runs when the RAISE button is pressed; the cradle is lowered by
gravity alone.
3.5.1 International conformance
The exact specifications of 3-phase machines differ depending on the standard
voltage and frequency of 3-phase mains power in the intended country of use.
In regions where 3-phase/~400VAC/50Hz power is standard (primarily in Europe,
Australasia, and Asia) the motor is driven directly by the mains current in
delta configuration’. In locations where different voltages and frequencies are common (primarily in North and South America) an electronic Variable Speed Drive (VSD) is fitted, which modulates the local mains supply and outputs 3-phase/400VAC/50Hz current to the motor in
star configuration’.
A list of 3-phase power standards in different countries and territories may
be viewed here: https://www.worldstandards.eu/three-phase-electric-power/.
Connecting Dumpmaster to a power supply for which it is not designed may
damage the motor and other components. Consult an electrician if you are
unsure.
3.5.2 Appliance inlet 0790050174
Dumpmaster is fitted with an IP66-rated appliance inlet, allowing it to be
operated with a regular 3-phase extension lead. Depending on the phase
polarity of the AC power supply, the power plug may need to be rewired to make
the motor turn in the right direction.
3-phase electric motors turn in different directions depending on the polarity
of the input current, so a mismatch will make the motor run backwards. This
does not damage the motor, but prevents the hydraulic system from lifting the
cradle. An electrician can correct this problem by switching any two of the
`phase wires’ in the power plug.
3.5.3 Isolator switch 0210050002
Dumpmaster is fitted with an isolator switch on the forward side of the
powerpack cover. This isolates the electrical systems from the power supply.
It should be turned OFF if the machine is to be placed in storage, or if the
powerpack cover needs to be removed.
The isolator switch must be turned OFF before the powerpack cover is removed.
3.5.4 Transformer NZ/AU/UK/EU 0250050123
Dumpmaster is fitted with a transformer to supply 24VDC current to the control
systems. The input voltage and frequency are specified to suit standard
3-phase mains power in the intended country of use.
User Manual // Simpro Dumpmaster® Original Instructions // English // v126.0
// July 2023 // Page 26
3.6 Electrical Systems (1-phase mains)
If you do not operate a 1-phase mains machine, please disregard this section.
Dumpmasters with a 1-phase mains powerpack are generally the same as other
models, but use a Variable Speed Drive (VSD) to drive a 3-phase 2-pole
electric motor, which drives the hydraulic pump. A transformer provides 24VDC
current to the control systems.
The motor only runs when the RAISE button is pressed; the cradle is lowered by
gravity alone.
3.6.1 International conformance
The exact specifications of 1-phase machines differ depending on the standard
voltage and frequency of 1-phase mains power in the intended country of use.
Both the transformer (§3.6.4) and Variable Speed Drive (§3.6.5) must be
specified to suit local norms.
A list of 1-phase power standards in different countries and territories may
be viewed here: https://www.worldstandards.eu/electricity/plug-voltage-by-
country/.
Connecting Dumpmaster to a power supply for which it is not designed may
damage the motor and other components. Consult an electrician if you are
unsure.
3.6.2 Appliance inlet NZ/AU 0790050272
Dumpmaster is fitted with an IP66-rated appliance inlet, allowing it to be
operated with a regular 1-phase extension lead.
3.6.3 Isolator switch 0210050002
Dumpmaster is fitted with an isolator switch on the forward side of the
powerpack cover. This isolates the electrical systems from the power supply
and should be turned OFF if the machine is to be placed in storage, or if the
powerpack cover needs to be removed.
The isolator switch must be turned OFF before the powerpack cover is removed.
3.6.4 Transformer NZ/AU 0250050122
Dumpmaster is fitted with a transformer which outputs 24VDC current to the
control systems. The input voltage and frequency are specified to suit
standard 1-phase mains power in the intended country of use.
3.6.5 Variable Speed Drive
Dumpmaster is fitted with an electronic Variable Speed Drive (VSD), which
outputs 3phase/400VAC/50Hz current to the electric motor in `star
configuration’. The input voltage and frequency are specified to suit 1-phase
mains power in the intended country of use.
The VSD has many parameters that can be set to suit specific applications.
They can be modified or calibrated by a PC that has the appropriate program
and cable drivers loaded.
Machines with a Variable Speed Drive can be fitted with a joystick, offering
progressive control over the lifting speed as per §2.3.3.
Residual voltages may be retained in the VSD after it has been disconnected
from the power supply. Use extreme caution when servicing all electrical
components.
3.7 Hydraulic Systems
3.7.1 Hydraulic control valves
The hydraulic system has four primary control valves:
3.7.1.1 Check valve This is a one-way valve which prevents oil from flowing
back through the pump when the motor is stopped.
3.7.1.2 Pressure-relief valve This is a spring-loaded valve which allows oil
to flow back into the reservoir when the hydraulic pressure exceeds its rated
limit usually from lifting an overweight bin, or from operating the machine
when the cradle is already at the top of the cycle.
3.7.1.3 Lowering valve This is a solenoid-operated valve which opens when the
LOWER button is pressed and allows oil to flow back to the reservoir, lowering
the cradle.
3.7.1.4 Lowering-speed valve This is a pressure-compensating valve which
limits the maximum flow rate of oil passing back to the reservoir through the
lowering valve thus regulating the descent speed of the cradle (regardless
of the weight of the bin).
3.7.2 Hydraulic fluid
The hydraulic system is designed to use mineral oil-based fluid with a
viscosity grade of 22 (ISO VG22). Fluid with a higher viscosity grade may be
used, but this will reduce the lowering speed of the cradle and increase the
likelihood of jams.
The hydraulic fluid should have physical lubricating and chemical properties
as specified by:
– Mineral Oil Based Hydraulic Fluids HL (DIN 51524 part 1) – Mineral Oil Based
Hydraulic Fluids HL P (DIN 51524 part 2)
Ensure the cradle is completely lowered before replacing the hydraulic fluid.
The hydraulic reservoir has markings showing the recommended fill level. Do
not fill beyond this level unless specifically instructed by the manufacturer.
3.7.3 Hydraulic powerpack 24VDC 1.0cc 0940090001 415VAC 1.2cc 0940090007
The hydraulic powerpack is supplied as a complete unit. The motor, pump, oil
tank, and all control valves are mounted into the centre manifold.
3.7.4 Hydraulic ram DM1500/DM1800 0330090003
The hydraulic ram is a single-action displacement type, with a 1-inch chrome
bar and single rubber seal 0330090000 . Two hydraulic lines run from the
powerpack to the ram, and two ram rollers 0140120002 transfer the motion of
the ram into the lifting chains.
The hydraulic ram is very robust and reliable, but easy to maintain should the
need arise.
User Manual // Simpro Dumpmaster® Original Instructions // English // v126.0
// July 2023 // Page 28
3.7.5 Hydraulic system diagram
3.7.6 Hydraulic system maintenance
After every 12 months of operation the hydraulic fluid should be drained and
replaced, and the intake suction-filter and lowering valve cleaned, as per
§3.9.
3.8 Safety Systems
3.8.1 Side-hinge safety door (standard)
Dumpmaster is fitted as standard with a single side-hinge safety door,
consisting of a steel tube frame with 25x25x2mm wire mesh guarding. This door
is very simple and robust, but will benefit from occasional servicing as
follows:
1. Lightly lubricate the door pivot points with silicone spray. 2. Check that
the screws holding the interlock actuators to the door frames are secure.
3.8.2 Swing-up safety door (optional)
Dumpmaster can be optionally specified with a swing-up safety door, consisting
of a steel tube frame with wire mesh or sheet-metal guarding, supported by two
gas struts. This type of door takes up a minimum of space, but has several
moving parts and will benefit from occasional servicing as follows:
1. Lubricate the arm pivot points with silicone spray (both ends of all four
arms). 2. Check that the screws holding the interlock actuators to the door
frames are secure. 3. Check the weight of the door is correctly balanced by
the gas struts, so the door can
be opened and closed with a minimum of effort. If the door is difficult to
open, or does not remain open, one or both gas struts will likely need to be
replaced.
3.8.3 Safety interlock Interlock 0250050162 Actuator 0250050038
Dumpmasters that were manufactured prior to April 2023 (serial S7329 and
below) are fitted with Idec interlocks, which can only be disabled or enabled
using an Idec Override Key. For more information on the Idec interlocks, see
Dumpmaster User Manual v119. Dumpmaster is fitted as standard with a single
Pilz 6L000022 solenoid-operated safety interlock. This is a `power-to-unlock’
type, with two internal contacts to authenticate that the door is closed and
locked. Machines with a swing-up door are fitted with two interlocks, mounted
close to the ground on either side of the frame; both must be unlocked before
the door can be opened.
3.8.3.1 Interlock manual override This work should only be carried out by
competent and authorised personnel. This procedure does not apply to machines
with a CAT3 safety-monitoring system. Contact your Simpro agent for advice on
bypassing the interlock on a CAT3 machine.
All routine Dumpmaster cleaning and maintenance should be carried out with the
cradle in the lowered position, allowing the safety door to be opened without
risk. To open the safety door with the cradle raised, the interlock must be
manually overridden as set out below;-
1. Move the cradle to the lowered position and open the safety door. 2.
Loosen the Lock-Screw on interlock the using a small flathead screwdriver. 3.
Use a 4mm Allen key to turn the interlock Override Key to the UNLOCK position,
making sure it rotates a full 180 degrees.
The safety door can now be opened even while the cradle is raised. The
interlock will still function as a cutout switch, preventing the cradle from
moving while the door is open. Never open the safety door with the Override
Key partly turned (less than 180°). Never apply excessive force to the
Override Key or interlock components. Never leave the Override Key set to
UNLOCK during regular operation. 4. Close the safety door and move the cradle
to the required position. 5. Open the safety door and carry out cleaning,
repairs or service work as required. 6. Once the work is complete, turn the
interlock Override Key back to the LOCK position
and tighten the Lock-Screw. 7. Carry out a complete tipping cycle to test the
operation of the machine and safety
functions before returning it to service.

3.8.4 Safety controller
If you do not operate a Dumpmaster with a CAT3/CAT4 safety-monitoring system,
please disregard this section. Dumpmasters with a CAT3/CAT4 safety-monitoring
system that were manufactured prior to April 2023 (serial S7329 and below) are
fitted with a Rockwell 440C-CR30 Safety Controller. For more information about
the Rockwell controller see Dumpmaster User Manual v119.
Dumpmaster models with CAT3/CAT4 safety architecture are fitted with a Pilz
Safety Controller to monitor the operation of the safety functions in
accordance with ISO13849 and AS/NZS4024. The controller continuously monitors
the status of the Emergency Stop contacts, door interlocks, cradle limit
sensors, and other safety devices that may be fitted.
The controller must be in READY MODE before the machine can be operated. It
goes into SAFE MODE immediately whenever an unsafe condition is detected, such
as;-
1. The Emergency Stop button is pressed; 2. The safety door is unlocked
and/or opened; 3. An interlock fault is detected; 4. A sensor fault is
detected.
When the controller is in SAFE MODE, the RESET button on the control panel
glows blue. The controller must be `reset’ to READY MODE before the machine
can be operated, as set out in §2.3.4.1.
Depending on the operating requirements, the safety controller may be either a
PNOZ mm0p 0960050048 (non-expandable model) or a PNOZ m B0 0960050032
(expandable model). The
model code is printed on the front panel of the controller, as seen in the
image above.
3.8.4.1 Controller troubleshooting The following documentation is provided to
assist authorised technical personnel to find and correct faults which are
preventing the safety controller from being reset.
This work should only be carried out by competent and authorised personnel, in
strict accordance with electrical and machinery safety practises.
Dumpmasters with CAT3/CAT4 safety architecture are supplied with a Technical
Specification document, which contains a circuit diagram and comprehensive
report on the safety controller functions. This document, together with the
LCD screen on the controller, can be used to trace faults which are preventing
the safety controller from being reset.
Typically, the following inputs must be HI before the controller can be reset:
– TWO Emergency Stop channels (IM0, IM1) – ONE or TWO Door Locked channels
(normally IM2 and IM3)
– ONE or TWO Door Closed channels (see Assignment List in report to identify
terminals) – ONE or TWO External Emergency Stop channels, where provided (see
Assignment List
in report to identify terminals) The other inputs are not safety-related and
are not necessary to be HI for a system reset. If the controller will not
reset, it is necessary to open the cabinet then turn the isolator switch on to
power up the control circuits.
The control circuit is 24VDC but there are 400VAC connections inside the
cabinet. Identify the high-voltage connections before proceeding and take
precautions to keep well clear of them while the cabinet is open. 3.8.4.2
Controller status LEDs The five LEDs on the front-left of the safety
controller provide basic status information, as shown below.

3.9 Preventative Maintenance Inspections
Regular preventative maintenance inspections (PMIs) should be carried out on
Dumpmaster. This helps ensure operator safety and extend the service life of
the machine.
The PMI schedule is divided into two parts: monthly and annual inspections.
The relevant procedures and logs are provided in the following section.
In the United Kingdom, the Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations 1998 specifies that Preventative Maintenance Inspections be carried out on all workplace lifting equipment. These are sometimes known as LOLER checks. The following schedules and logs may be used to demonstrate conformance with UK LOLER regulations.
Operators should immediately stop using the MegaDumper and request an inspection if any abnormal operation, fault, or failure is observed.

Assembly, Handling and Storage
4.1 Assembly
Dumpmaster is usually delivered fully assembled, but in some cases guarding
panels may be removed to minimise volume for shipping. Assembly instructions
can be viewed at the following link: https://support.simpro.world/help
/dumpmaster-assembly-guide.
A sealed transit plug’ may be fitted to the hydraulic fluid tank to prevent oil leaks during shipping. This must be replaced with the supplied
breather
plug’ before the machine is operated, or the tank may be damaged.
4.2 Moving
When Dumpmaster is standing upright it may be easily moved on its castor
wheels, using the two grab-handles provided. To ensure stability the cradle
should be positioned 100mm off the ground when moving.
On a hard, flat surface, Dumpmaster can be moved by a force of approximately
70 Newtons at a height of 1.6 metres. An accessory is available from Simpro
which enables a directional lock on the castor wheels. This can make the
machine easier to manoeuvre on sloping ground.
Extra care should be taken when moving the machine on sloping ground.
4.3 Lifting
Observe the following procedures when lifting Dumpmaster;1. Check that the
lifting equipment is in good condition and rated to lift at least 500kg. 2.
Affix a lifting sling or chain around the top frame cross-member (or to the
lifting lugs if provided). 3. Use one person to operate the lifting equipment,
and at least one other person to watch for obstructions and hold the machine
steady if required. 4. Lift, move and lower the machine into place, ensuring
it remains upright at all times.
The service weight of Dumpmaster is listed on the rating plate. Before lifting
any heavy object, check that it is within the Safe Working Load of the lifting
equipment. Never stand or reach beneath any heavy object while it is being
lifted.
4.4 Transport
Observe the following procedures when transporting Dumpmaster;1. Lower the
cradle, apply both brakes and turn the isolator switch OFF.
2. Firmly tie the cradle into position against the lower frame cross-member
with plastic strapping or cable ties. This will maintain positive tension on
the chains during transit, helping prevent them from derailing from the chain-
guides inside the mast.
If the chains do become derailed the cradle may jam when lowering, as per
§3.3.7.2. If this occurs, a screwdriver can be used to remove the two cover-
plates at the top of the mast, providing access to the chain-guides for
checking and re-mounting. 3. Use lifting equipment to lie the machine onto its
front (tipping) face on a wooden
pallet, and securely strap it into place. 4. Use a 1-tonne forklift to load
the pallet onto the deck of the truck. 5. Tie the machine into position using
marked tie-down points and strops rated to at
least 1000kg, ensuring it is fastened against lateral forces from any
direction. Never lie the machine onto its sides or back (safety door) as this
may cause hydraulic fluid leaks and/or damage to the guarding.
4.5 Storage
If Dumpmaster is not to be used for a period of two months or more, it should
be stored in a clean, dry place with good ventilation, at temperatures not
below 0. Before placing the machine into storage, carry out the following
procedures:
1. Clean the machine thoroughly as per §3.2. 2. Carry out two complete
tipping cycles, then lower the cradle to the ground. 3. Apply a thin layer of
silicone lubricant to exposed surfaces of moving parts. 4. Charge the
batteries (if fitted) and lubricate the electrical contacts. 5. Turn the
isolator switch OFF. 6. Remove the key and store it in a safe place.

Safety Assessment
Dumpmaster has been designed to be as safe as possible without restricting the
ease-of-use and versatility of the machine.
Before the machine is used for the first time, a site-specific Hazard and Risk
Assessment should be completed as per §5.3.
5.1 Safety features
The safety features of the standard Dumpmaster design are as follows:
1. Mesh and sheet-metal panels which prevent access to all moving parts. 2. A
safety interlock system which disables the machine unless the door is shut,
and
electrically locks the door as soon as the cradle leaves the ground. 3. A
tipping action which maintains the weight of the bin within the machine
footprint. 4. A pressure-compensating lowering valve which automatically
regulates the lowering
speed regardless of the weight of the bin. 5. A control system which either:
a. stops the machine unless continuous operator input is received, or; b. has
a prominent EMERGENCY STOP button to disable the machine.
5.2 Reasonably foreseeable misuse
Reasonably foreseeable misuse considered in the Dumpmaster design is as
follows:
1. Attempts to use the machine by untrained operators; 2. Attempts to empty
bins that the cradle is not specifically designed to hold; 3. Attempts to
bypass the door interlock or other safety systems; 4. Attempts to clear spilt
material from inside the guarding without proper procedures; 5. Attempts to
clean the machine without following proper procedures.
5.3 Hazard and Risk Assessment Guide
Most jurisdictions require machinery owners to conduct a Hazard and Risk
Assessment for their equipment, which considers all relevant factors such as
the area it is used, the skill and training of operators, the proximity of
other persons, frequency of use, etc.
The following section is not a complete site-specific Hazard and Risk
Assessment, but an assessment of the risk factors that are intrinsic to the
Dumpmaster design. Blank template spaces are provided for additional site-
specific hazards.
The procedure for carrying out a Hazard and Risk Assessment is typically
defined with reference to ISO 12100:2010, issued by the International
Standards Organisation. This standard describes procedures for identifying
hazards and estimating and evaluating risks during relevant phases of a
machine life cycle.
As with all powered industrial equipment, some hazards will remain despite any precautions undertaken by the manufacturer or owner of the machine. It is essential that operators are aware of these residual hazards and what they must do to prevent harm to themselves or to others, as set out in §5.3.3.
5.3.1 The ISO 12100 risk assessment model
In the ISO 12100:2010 risk assessment model, each identified hazard is given a
Risk Factor,
from which is derived a final Risk Evaluation. These parameters can be
determined as follows.
5.3.1.1 Determining the Risk Factor The Risk Factor associated with any given hazard may be calculated using the following table, with the formula: Risk Factor = LO x FE x DPH x NP:

5.3.3 Residual Hazards
As with all industrial lifting equipment, some residual hazards may be present
despite any interlocks, guarding or other safety functions that can be fitted
to the machine.
The machinery owner has a leGal responsibility to take all reasonable
precautions to eliminate, isolate, or minimize these residual hazards. This
may include:
– Monitoring and enforcing the training of operators – Design and
implementation of Standard Operating Procedures – Using rewards and/or
disciplinary measures to encourage safe behaviours – Posting signage, floor
marking, or other warnings as appropriate – Encouraging a culture of safety
within the workplace
5.4 OSH Compliance Specification Guide
Companies in most jurisdictions (including Australia, NZ, UK, USA, Canada, and
the EU) are required by law to provide a safe workplace for their staff,
including ensuring that all new and existing machinery is safe to operate.
Although the particulars of safety legislation differ, most countries accept
that machinery is safe to operate’ if it can be demonstrated to comply with ISO 13849-1:2015 (or an equivalent local standard). ISO 13849-1:2015 may call for additional guarding, interlocks, and other safety features, depending on the particular conditions of use. The following section is provided to assist potential Dumpmaster operators in determining whether any additional safety features are required for their application. ISO 13849-1:2015 is a machinery-safety standard issued by the International Standards Organisation. It provides safety requirements and guidance on the principles for the design and integration of safety-related parts of control systems (SRP/CS), including the design of software. ISO 13849-1 has been modified for local conditions and reissued under different terminology by some national standards authorities. In Australia and New Zealand, the derivative standard is called AS/NZS 4024.1:2014. In the USA, ANSI standards are commonly used to demonstrate the safety of machinery, rather than ISO 13849-1. However, since the US model relies largely on
best practise’ and `liability’ to
enforce workplace H&S norms, US companies who demonstrate machinery safety
using ISO 13849-1 may be considered to have met their H&S obligations.
5.4.1 The ISO 13849 functional safety model
Unlike the system architecture model used by earlier safety standards, ISO
13849-1:2015 uses a functional safety model of machinery safety. That means it
takes account of the reliability of parts as well as other factors to create a
comprehensive measure of the risk reduction achieved by a safety function an
indicator called Performance Level (PL).
The standard defines five Performance Levels, ranging from PLa (lowest
performance) to PLe (highest performance).
User Manual // Simpro Dumpmaster® Original Instructions // English // v126.0
// July 2023 // Page 48
The standard also defines the Performance Level that a given safety function
must achieve to reduce the risk to an acceptable level a value called
Performance Level required (PLr).
5.4.2 Identifying the required safety functions
To identify the safety functions required for a given machine, a site-specific
hazard and risk assessment must first be completed as per §5.3. Identified
hazards that cannot be avoided or eliminated must be addressed by appropriate
safety functions.
5.4.3 Determining the Performance Level required (PLr)
As defined by the ISO 13849-1:2015 safety model, the minimum PLr for any given
safety
function is derived from three parameters:
1. Severity of injury expected from the associated hazard 2. Frequency and/or duration of exposure to the associated hazard 3. Possibility of manually avoiding the associated hazard
The following table may be used to determine the minimum PLr from these parameters.
Severity of potential injury from hazard
Frequency and/or duration of exposure to hazard
Possibility of manually avoiding the hazard
PLr
Slight injury (reversible)
Seldom to quite often and/or short exposure time
Frequent to continuous and/or long exposure time
Possible under specific conditions Scarcely possible Possible under specific conditions Scarcely possible
PL(a) PL(b)
Seldom to quite often Serious injury or death and/or short exposure time
Possible under specific PL(c) conditions Scarcely possible
(irreversible)
Frequent to continuous and/or long exposure time
Possible under specific PL(d)
conditions
Scarcely possible
PL(e)
To demonstrate compliance with ISO 13849-1:2015, the minimum acceptable PLr of the
safety functions must be assessed for each identified hazard in the specific conditions in
which the machine is to be used.
Safety function performance may be assessed as part of the regular Hazard and Risk Assessment set out in §5.3. Although this assessment includes all hazards intrinsic to the Dumpmaster design, other safety functions may be required to address site-specific hazards, which can be evaluated using the blank spaces provided.
5.4.4 Achieving the Performance Level required (PLr)
Because all hazards intrinsic to the Dumpmaster design are addressed by safety
functions with a baseline performance of PLc, it follows that additional or
uprated safety functions are only required in the following cases:
1. The risk assessment identifies application-specific hazards which are not
addressed by the safety functions built into the standard Dumpmaster design.
2. The risk assessment identifies application-specific hazards which are
sufficiently serious and/or frequent as to require safety functions with a
performance level of PLd or PLe.
3. The operating environment is subject to corporate policies, union
contracts, OSH regulations or other external factors which specify that all
machinery must have a safety performance level of PLd or PLe.
In any of these cases, information about the hazard and risk assessment,
required safety function and performance level should be provided to Simpro
before placing an order. Simpro can then specify and quote additional or
uprated safety functions, such as:
– CAT3 Kit 0960050014 to achieve PLd safety performance – CAT4 Kit 0960050017
to achieve PLe safety performance – Additional guarding – Remote controls –
Training of operators – Custom signage or floor markings The CAT3 Kit is the
most common Dumpmaster safety function upgrade. It is typically specified when
any of the following conditions apply:
– Intensive 24/7 operating cycle – Transient or low-skilled operators –
Personnel frequently entering the machine (ie for daily cleaning) – Corporate
or union policies require machinery to have CAT3/PLd safety functions

9.2 Coverage
1. Simpro provides a 24-month Back to Base Warranty on all Standard Products
unless alternative terms have been agreed to in writing.
2. The Warranty terms and conditions on custom-built and non-standard
machines are generally specified on quotations, and placing an order implies
acceptance of the Warranty terms. If no specific Warranty details have been
provided, the standard terms and conditions will apply.
3. The 24-month Warranty period shall be taken from the date the machine
first leaves the Agent’s premises, whether sold or just supplied for trial.
The Agent shall keep accurate records of the date of all machine trials,
sales. etc.
4. Simpro will, at its option, repair or replace any items that fail or prove
defective within the Warranty period.
5. Simpro’s liability under the terms of this Warranty shall be limited to
remedying any fault that occurs on machines it has manufactured or supplied,
and shall not cover any consequential loss or damage.
6. The Warranty on batteries is for 12 months only, and is distinct from the
warranty on the rest of the machine. Information on maximising battery life is
provided in the User Manual.
9.3 Exclusions
1. Simpro will not recognise a Warranty Claim against a machine where payment
to Simpro for that machine is outstanding. If a Warranty Claim is made before
payment is due, the full payment must be made on the due date. The Warranty
Claim, if accepted, will be credited at a later date.
2. Warranty Claims may not be recognized unless the Warranty Registration
Process has been completed. If not done at the time of sale, this should be
done at the time of the Warranty Claim. If warranty registration has not been
completed, proof of purchase may be required.
3. Damage caused or contributed to by misuse, abuse, accident, unauthorised
repairs or modifications, or failure to use the machine in accordance with
instructions is specifically excluded.
4. Travelling time and mileage are specifically excluded from the Simpro
warranty coverage. However, under certain circumstances Simpro at its
discretion may contribute to these costs. Authorisation must be obtained from
Simpro prior to any such Warranty Claim. This does not prohibit an Agent
offering more extensive Warranty cover, outside of this Warranty, as
negotiated between the Agent and the End User.
9.4 End User claim procedure
1. Where a fault or breakdown appears to have occurred the End User should,
if applicable, first consult the Quick Troubleshooting Guide section of the
User Manual provided with each machine, to ascertain the cause of the fault
and remedy if possible. This information may also be accessed on the Simpro
Support website: support.simpro.world.
2. If the fault is not able to be remedied, the End User should contact the
Agent who sold the machine, and explain as fully as possible the fault,
including all relevant factors such as: 1. Did the fault occur suddenly, or
develop over a period of time? 2. Was the machine being used at the time? 3.
Is the fault intermittent? 4. Are the batteries fully charged?
3. If repair is urgent, or the Agent cannot be contacted, the End User may
contact Simpro directly.
9.5 Agent claim-handling procedure
1. Upon receiving notification of a fault, the Service Agent should attempt
to determine the cause and a course of action before going to see the machine.
2. The Service Agent should contact Simpro for assistance in identifying the
fault, if it is not apparent. This step is important, so that if a site visit
is necessary, the correct tools and spare Parts can be taken. It is also
important to establish whether there may have been any negligence, misuse or
an accident that contributed to or caused the fault.
3. Parts requiring replacement will be supplied by Simpro free of charge; in
some cases, it may be necessary to source Parts locally if needed urgently,
but Simpro must authorize this if the cost of the item exceeds $50.00 and is
to be charged to Simpro.
4. If the fault is not a Minor Fault, the Agent must notify Simpro and
receive authorization to proceed before the repair work is done. Simpro will
assist in every way possible, including discussing the problem directly with
the End User if necessary, to determine the best method of effecting the
repair in the shortest time possible.
5. Upon completion of the repair to an acceptable standard, the Agent shall
complete the Application For Warranty Consideration Form and include copies of
any invoices for labour, and any Parts supplied.
6. The cost of Warranty repairs is not to be deducted from any payments due
to Simpro, unless Simpro issues a credit note clearly stating the amount and
which invoice it relates to.
7. Simpro undertakes to be reasonable in respect of all Warranty repairs
undertaken by Agents, but reserves the right to decline payment for:1. Work
done or materials replaced that were not authorized in advance by Simpro. 2.
Work not done to an acceptable standard. 3. Work taking an unduly long time,
due (in part or in full) to the lack of knowledge or skill of the serviceman
or the Agent. The time allowed for repair work will be based on Simpro’s
assessment of what a reasonably skilled technician would take. A detailed
Service Manual is available on request from Simpro, and all service visits
should be conducted with this document at hand.
This warranty shall be interpreted according to the laws of New Zealand, and
the parties agree to submit to the jurisdiction of the Courts of New Zealand.
