    I was taught to do it one handed. You got to be quick, but there is no chance of getting hung in double nothing.

    It looks likes the Trucks n Trailers need to backup onto a Elevated Platform prior to it being raised and emptying out

    Is that the procedure?

    Yes. There are a few different types of dump ramps. Some the whole truck, some just trailers and a few drive through. Super B trains can dump both boxes at once.

    Not a mack two stick. They are the married. (Same case) not divorced like a spicer with a browning. So there are no worn linkages to get tangled up. The two stick Mack was really a great transmission. The only problem with a Mack was if you managed to get them both in neutral at the same time. You’d have to stop and start over again. ( most of the time)
