What happens here

Receive a delivery of gravel (referred to as "rock" in the video) in a dump trailer. Position the dump trailer carefully in the designated area for material drop-off. Activate the hydraulic lift mechanism to raise the trailer bed and slowly tilt it, allowing the gravel to slide out onto the ground. Exercise extreme caution, particularly if there are overhead powerlines, to ensure the raised trailer bed does not come into contact with them. The gravel is intended for backfill behind the retaining wall.

Goal: Efficiently and safely unload backfill gravel at the job site.
