How Canadians Build Dump trailers

What happens here

After successfully hauling 10,000 pounds of rock, the trailer's dumping capability is put to the test. The driver engages the 'power up' function of the scissor hoist, and the entire load of rock is smoothly and completely dumped. This demonstrates the immense lifting power and efficient design of the hoist system, ensuring all material can be quickly and easily unloaded, even under heavy load. The 'power down' function is then used to safely return the bed to its original position.

Goal: Demonstrate the efficient and complete dumping capability of the trailer with a full load.
