Description
Thwaites 5-10 Tonne Dumper Manual Set combines two operator’s instruction manuals with a service manual for the specified Thwaites site dumper models. The three publications provide model-specific guidance for safe operation, control identification, routine servicing and maintenance.
This 98-page collection is intended for dumper operators, workshop technicians, plant maintenance departments and fleet engineers. Coverage varies between the individual publications, so each manual retains its own model applicability, issue and publication number.
