How to operate a mining dump truck?

1. Safety inspection
Before operating an underground dump truck, the vehicle safety condition must be carefully checked, especially the braking, steering and anti-skid systems. Make sure the vehicle is intact to prevent dangerous conditions during operation.

2. Loading and starting the vehicle
Drive the underground dump truck to the vicinity of the unloading port and park the vehicle in an appropriate position for loading. While ensuring safety, connect the loading equipment to the dump truck and start the vehicle.

3. Steering and driving
Before preparing for transportation, turn the vehicle from the parking position. When steering, the operator must hold the steering wheel of the vehicle firmly and turn left or right gradually. When it is feasible, drive by moving forward slowly.

4. Driving and parking underground
Good driving habits are especially needed in mines. First of all, pay attention to whether the road conditions are stable, especially whether there are obstacles such as water accumulation and mud potholes. During driving, do not change the speed suddenly and avoid sharp turns.

5. Unloading
When unloading, first park the dump truck in front of the loading area, turn on the switch to start unloading. It should be operated carefully, and the bag valve and screw should be manually controlled to push the material according to the instructions to achieve safety and efficiency requirements. When unloading, the vehicle should be kept basically motionless as much as possible, and be careful to avoid swinging and tilting to cause accidents.

In summary, the actual operation process of underground dump trucks for mining is very complicated, and professional training and actual drills are required to ensure the safety and efficiency of operators to complete their work. Therefore, during the operation, the operator must first ensure his own safety, gradually accumulate driving skills, and always stay focused to prevent any unexpected accidents.
