    Back into spot to dump as straight as possible.
    Set trailer brakes
    Dump truck suspension
    Unroll tarp and move bows if needed
    Dump bags, hang up mud flaps, unlock door and if needed swing open and hook chain.
    Engage pto and dump
    When MT I got out and double check to make sure
    Lower dump
    lock gate & unhang mud flaps
    Raise dump suspension
    Tarp closed if needed
    Raise truck suspension and disengage pto
    Get trucking again.

    Is that simple enough?

    When dumping you made sure that gravity is straight up and down. If it leans at all over you go. (Not good)

    In between upsie daisy and back down you go, make sure it all goes out the gate and not over the side

    The thing about end dumps is it's not if but when you join the I tipped the tub club. Sooner of later it's going to happen.
