However, NHTSA cannot become involved in individual problems between you, your dealer, or Monroe Truck Equipment. To contact NHTSA, you may either call the Auto Safety Hotline toll-free 1-800-424-9393 (or 366-0123) in Washington, DC area) or write to: NHTSA, U.S. Department of Transportation, Washington, DC 20590.

Make sure the dump latch lever is raised fully before opening the tailgate at the top. Do not load the body beyond the rated lifting capacity of the hoist or the payload capacity of the chassis. Watch for overhead power wires when raising the body. Read and obey all Safety decals on the truck and dump body. Use & Care Guidelines Treat the paint on your dump body as you would any automotive finish. Wash the body at least every 2 months to remove dirt, road salt, tar, etc. If road salt is used during winter in your area, flush the underside of the body once a month during winter to remove accumulated salt. Raise the body to remove salt from the hoist and other horizontal areas. If the truck is used as a salt spreader, wash it off more often and more carefully to remove accumulated salt. Use a pressure washer to clean the hoist, sub-frame, and truck frame. After washing, inspect the finish for nicks and chips. Touch up the paint as to prevent premature paint failure. Wax a painted body at least annually with a high-quality automotive wax. Stainless steel bodies should be washed regularly. Light contamination and staining can be removed with a mild-acid (citric) cleaner. When cleaning bare stainless steel, avoid the use of abrasive pads that will create small scratches and swirl marks in the surface. Check the operation of vehicle lights daily. Maintain reflectors and Caution decals on the body. Replace damaged reflectors and decals. 3 Maintenance Every 6 Months Inspect the body closely for severe rust or paint failure. Address problems with the finish quickly to prevent further damage. Damage to a painted finish (mild steel) from impacts or deep scratches must be repaired to prevent corrosion. The dump-latch lever must snap over center near the top of its travel to insure that the tailgate remains latched. Adjust the turnbuckle at the rear of the body to tighten the latch. If applicable, check operation of side-gate latches and verify that both latches engage when the gate is closed. Check the level in the hydraulic fluid reservoir. Inspect the hydraulic system for fluid leaks. Lubricate all grease fitting with chassis grease. Lubricate tailgate and side gate latches and levers with lithium grease. Annually Inspect the body, subframe, and hoist closely for signs of bending, fractures, and other damage. If the body is used for salt spreading, inspect all areas closely for corrosion damage. Severe corrosion of structural components must be repaired. Change the fluid in the hydraulic system. Check all body fasteners and tighten if necessary. Inspect the tail and side gate latches and verify proper operation. Adjust the lower tailgate latch as required. Hydraulic System Maintenance Maintain proper level in the hydraulic fluid reservoir. Keep the cap on the reservoir unless adding fluid. Keep dirt out of the reservoir and hydraulic system. Investigate and repair any leaks immediately. Change the hydraulic fluid annually or more often if operating in very dusty conditions. Check all hydraulic hoses annually for signs of cutting, rubbing, abrasion, and other damage that could lead to hose failure. 4 Service Parts Parts Ordering Notes When ordering parts, be sure to select mild or stainless as required. Most mild and stainless steel parts are interchangeable, but always match the material of construction to your body material. Some stainless steel parts are common to both mild and stainless steel bodies. Some part number selections are based on the date of body construction. The first four characters of the body serial number indicate the year and month of construction. Mild steel tail gates and side gates are powder-coat painted prior to sale. Indicate the required paint color when ordering. This parts manual covers ZEE-Dump bodies manufactured after 2011. For parts information on older bodies, contact the MTE Parts Department in Monroe, Wisconsin. 5 Service Parts—Tail Gate 15 16 17 18 19 1 2 4 3 5 6 7 8 20 12 22 9 11 10 13 21 14 6 23 24 Service Parts—Tail Gate Mild-Steel Tail Gate 7 Service Parts—Tail Gate 15 16 17 18 19 1 2 4 3 5 6 7 8 20 12 9 13 22 11 10 21 14 8 23 24 Service Parts—Tail Gate Stainless-Steel Tail Gate 9 Service Parts—Tailgate Dump Latch 13 8 12 3 1 2 9 4 10 5 6 7 10 11 Service Parts—Tailgate Dump Latch Mild & Stainless-Steel Tail Gates 11 Service Parts—Side Gate and Latch 1 20 21 22 2 12 16 13 17 14 9 5 7 6 10 4 3 8 11 18 19 12 15 Service Parts—Side Gate and Latch Mild-Steel Side Gate 13 Service Parts—Side Gate and Latch 1 20 21 22 2 12 16 13 17 14 9 5 7 6 10 4 3 8 11 18 19 14 15 Service Parts—Side Gate and Latch Stainless-Steel Side Gate 15 Service Parts—Installation Hardware & Parts Mild & Stainless-Steel Bodies 16 Service Parts—Decals (Complete Kit 00117174) Description Part # Qty.
