          Application No. 08/424,806                                                  


               liquid or said bubble is adjacent to each light                        
               detecting means;                                                       
                    display means comprising at least one light bar                   
               having a series of light emitters operatively                          
               connected to said electronic means for producing a                     
               visible display pattern indicative of the degree of                    
               tilt of said supporting means; and                                     
                    said electronic means including means for                         
               predetermining the degree of tilt to be indicated by                   
               said light pattern and for stopping lifting of said                    
               bin end when vehicle tilt reaches a predetermined                      
               angle.                                                                 


               The reference relied on in rejecting the claims follows:               
          Kramer                   4,154,000                     May 15,              
          1979.                                                                       


               Claims 5 and 12 stand rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 112,                  
          ¶ 2, as indefinite.  Claims 1, 3, 5-7, 9, 10, and 12-14 stand               
          rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103 as obvious over Kramer.  Rather              
          than repeat the arguments of the appellant or examiner in                   
          toto, we refer the reader to the briefs and answer for the                  
          respective details thereof.                                                 


                                       OPINION
