Labrie Top Select User manual

  • Hello! I'm your chat assistant and I've read the operator's manual for the Labrie Top Select waste collection unit. This manual covers a range of topics, from safety precautions and daily inspections to operating the control systems for the loading bucket, tailgate, and body partitions. It also describes the safety features, like the body safety prop, and provides instructions for the lockout/tagout procedure. I'm ready to answer any questions you might have about how to properly use and maintain your Top Select.
  • What should I do before entering the main body of the vehicle?
    What should I do if the vehicle has to be parked for an extended period of time?
    What is the maximum speed for right-hand side operation during collection?
    What should I do before raising the body?
