Why should the load be centered in the dumper bed?

The load should be centered in the dumper bed primarily to ensure balance and prevent tipping during transport. When the load is centered, it distributes the weight evenly across the dumper's chassis and wheels, which stabilizes the vehicle as it moves. This balance is crucial, especially when navigating uneven terrain or changing directions, as an off-center load can easily lead to tipping over, posing risks to both the operator and others nearby.

While maximizing load size might be a consideration for efficiency, it does not directly contribute to safety or stability. Increasing speed while moving does not relate to the positioning of the load in the dumper bed; rather, it pertains to the vehicle's operational capabilities and handling. Finally, although centering the load can facilitate a smoother and potentially simpler unloading process, this is a secondary benefit, not the primary reason for maintaining balance during transport.
