    Very good info that all dump trailer owners need to know. Best fix i’ve found is to install a 2nd battery. This has served us all day. Also, at the end of the day we connect batteries to a real battery charger - not the 12V plug that comes with most new trailers. If you really want to ensure that your battery won’t let you down, go with a lithium phosphate (LiPo) battery, just be prepared for sticker shock. The bright side is that a LiPo battery will save you $ in the long run. A good LiPo battery will last you 7 years. The deep cycle battery that came with/ your trailer might last 2 years. Same thing goes for the battery(-ies) that came w/ your RV. Ask me how I know.

    Wow! Exactly my ATF reservoir, and overflowing out the cap is my problem! Thanks so much! I just went and put my dump trailer on the charger.
    Issue:::: I see your hoist has only up and down power buttons. Mine has buttons for Up and Down with Power on, and a third button, Down w/no power on.
    Question:::: If I operate the down w/ no power button wouldn't that cause my cylinders to get air in them too, and cause my overflow? Just as if the battery were low/dead? Thanks for the video!! ps...You have earned my loyalty as a customer for anything related to these trailers in the future, thanks again.

    New to dump trailers. Had mine do the same thing so I bought some hydraulic fluid for it, filled it back up. After I filled it I noticed a sticker on the top inside of the tool box lid saying “ USE ONLY DEXRON
    TRANSMISSION FLUID” should I flush it all out an use the Dexron or hydraulic fluid?

    I use a pretty big solar charger from PulseTech. It’s their 7W model. So my battery is always charged. But when you’re ready to dump can’t you just unplug the cord going to your truck?

    • @rondotrailer
      @rondotrailer  2 роки тому

      Sure, when your battery is fully charged you have a few dumps before it gets discharged enough before trouble. (less with old battery) Always good to have truck's wiring into RV plug to always charge the dump trailer battery. Under load, that electric hyd motor takes a lot of juice.
