Johnny Jaws Operation Tutorial

A real-world look at Johnny Jaws operation for fleet managers and operators.

How Johnny Jaws Works on Front-Load Trucks Servicing Metal Rear-Load Dumpsters


This video offers a real-world look at how the Johnny Jaws system is used on a front-load garbage truck to service metal rear-load dumpsters. Filmed during an on-site training session immediately after installation, it shows the system in normal operating conditions with live instruction and operator guidance.


Rather than a staged demo, this video focuses on practical use, explaining how Johnny Jaws engages 2-yard and 4-yard metal dumpsters, how the system aligns on the trunnion, and how drivers can lift, dump, and set containers down safely without exiting the cab. The role of the jaw, cylinders, and airbag system is discussed throughout, with emphasis on control, visibility, and repeatable operation.


This video is especially useful for:


  • Fleet managers

  • Route supervisors

  • Operations and safety managers

  • Municipal sanitation departments

  • Private waste and recycling companies


If you’re looking for a way to service metal rear-load dumpsters with a front-load truck, reduce manual handling, or run mixed routes without modifying containers, Johnny Jaws may be the solution you’re evaluating.
