ABSTRACT:
A tarp cover arrangement for a transfer dump system includes a front tarp cover for covering the front truck container, and a rear tarp cover for covering the rear truck container, characterized by the provision of a front cover drive device mounted at the front end of the front container, and a rear cover drive device mounted at the rear end of the rear container. In order to prevent an obstruction at the front end of the front container, the front cover drive device is mounted forwardly of the front wall of the front container, and a tarp storage tray is provided for storing the tarp when in the collapsed open condition. In order to minimize the extent to which the idler pulleys protrude laterally beyond the side walls of the rear container, the idler pulleys of the rear cover drive cable are mounted forwardly of the front wall of the rear truck. The support tube for the rear cover drive device is contained between the side walls of the rear container.
