As it was explained to me, the live floor requires some weight on them to clean out. (The material slides back with the panels returning to the forward position.)
Ours might not have the "kicker" can you elaborate on it, I'm not quite sure what you mean.
Our equipment is far from the latest and greatest if you catch my drift.
One more thing, I only shovel it out when we are changing product. IE: stump grindings to bark mulch or wood chips.

I did find out today that none of the lift axles are steerable. -
Once the last section of load is out, I leave the floor moving and with the parking brake applied I climb into the trailer, walk to the front and just follow the floor along, sweeping/shoveling the material that the floor drags back when the panels return to the front. Letting the floor do most of the work for me. It's not too bad. -

Spent the day with another driver hauling chips and tires on a 7 axle chipbox. I couldn't believe how easy it was to make corners with that. It seemed a whole lot easier than a tandem, and backing was much easier as well, you guys were dead on.
I had a StarCar day cab, 500Cat, 18 speed, 4.11 rears. Even with the horsepower, that thing out pulled any road tractor I've ever had. The most I had was 120k gross, but what a difference a real truck makes!
So far, so good, but I found out how out of shape I'm in laying around the last 11 month's. I do hope it all comes back. Monday, I go back for some more training, before I'm set free, but I'll take all I can get. -
