The tipper body is raised by a electro-hydraulic unit powered by the
vehicle's battery.
Raising and lowering the the tipper body done is by pressing and
holding the corresponding buttons on the magnetic and portable
remote control mounted on on a carrier in the cab. Power to raise the tipper body is generated by the motor in the
electro-hydraulic unit.
The tipper body is lowered by an electrovalve that opens a fluid
return from the ram.
A safety device prevents the tipper body from dropping when static
or being raised.

For more information, refer to your registration certificate.
In each country, it is imperative that the towed loads authorised by
local legislation are complied with. To find out your vehicle's towing
capacities and its gross train weight, consult a franchised dealer.
The maximum authorised speed is reduced when towing (comply
with the legislation in force in your country).
With load transfer, the braked trailer weight can be increased,
on condition that the equivalent of this load is removed from the
vehicle so that the GTW is not exceeded. Warning: towing with a
lightly loaded towing vehicle may have an adverse effect on its road
holding.
The GTW and towed load values indicated are valid up to a
maximum altitude of 1000 metres; the towed load mentioned must
be reduced by 10 % for each additional 1000 metres.
High ambient temperatures may result in a reduction in the
performance of the vehicle in order to protect the engine; when the
ambient temperature is higher than 37 °C, limit the towed weight.
The kerb weight is equal to the weight without load + driver (75
kg) +
fuel tank filled to 90%. Before towing a trailer, check
that:
-

the nose weight on the

towbar ball does not exceed
the value (S) indicated on
the trailer's weights plate,
-

the maximum trailer weight

is less than the value
indicated on the trailer's
weights plate and the Gross
Vehicle Weight (GVW)
does not exceed the value
indicated on the vehicle's
weights plate.
-

in the case of a self-
supporting trailer

, the Gross
Train Weight must not
exceed the value indicated
on the vehicle's weights
plate.
