Abstract
There is disclosed a method of generating a service indicator for a tipper, the tipper comprising a tipper body pivotably moveable with respect to a frame with a hydraulic cylinder disposed therebetween and actuatable to pivot the tipper body to perform a tipping cycle. The method comprises monitoring at least one parameter relating to the movement of the tipper body with respect to the frame; identifying when a tipping cycle is performed based on the at least one monitored parameter; counting the number of tipping cycles performed; determining whether the number of tipping cycles performed has reached a service threshold; and generating a service indicator when it is determined that the service threshold has been reached.
