Where is the hydraulic reservoir for the dump located on a 1988 F350 dump truck?
The dump body is an aftermarket item, and where the reservoir is can vary. I'd start by looking under the truck, as that tends to be a fairly common place. It may also be possible that the fuel tank was split, and part of it used for hydraulic oil.

The Dump Truck?
Dump trucks are handy vehicles that are commonly used to transport things such as rocks and dirt for construction and landscaping. Dump trucks are characterized by an open box bed of the truck with a hydraulic hinge at the back allowing all the “cargo” to be deposited behind the truck. Different Kinds of Dump Trucks You can find many models of dump trucks. The classic one is the basic truck characterized by an open box bed with a hydraulic hinge at the back. There are also articulated dump trucks that have hydraulic rams for steering that allow the vehicle to pivot. Articulated dump trucks are called Yukes. Transfer dump trucks are a standard dump truck that pulls a trailer. The second trailer can also be filled with sand, gravel or snow. There is also a triple transfer train that can be found in this family of dump truck. Transfer trucks are often seen in the western part of the U.S., but the triple model is usually not seen outside of Nevada or Utah. The truck and pup is another kind of dump truck. This truck is a bit like the transfer dump truck, but unlike the transfer dump truck, the pup trailer has its own hydraulic lift. A super dump trick is a normal dump truck that comes with special weight bearing axel. This axel is called a Trailing axle, and the dump truck portion is generally about four meters behind the rear tandem. Semi-Trailer Trucks Other models of dump trucks are the semi-trailer family, which come in different varieties. The semi end dump trailer holds a hydraulic hoist. Its advantage is fast unloading. It is limited because it is unstable when dumping. The Semi-Trailer Bottom Dump Truck has a special gate at the bottom center of the truck for unloading. This type of truck can also come in double or triple versions. You can also buy side dump trucks that load out the side and unlike the above trucks they are not likely to tip over. For heavy construction, there are the off-road dump trucks. These are used for heavy dirt hauling and mining operations. Lots of models of trucks make up the category of dump truck.

In North Carolina what are the requirements to operate a dump truck with a gvwr of less than 26000 lbs and equipped with air over hydraulic brakes?
This is a tricky one. The GVWR doesn't call for anything but a Class C driver's license--the cutoff for that is 26,001 pounds--but this truck has air brakes and you're driving it as part of your job--maybe your whole job. If I was driving this truck I'd want a Class B CDL and I'd take the air brakes test.

emolliating hydraulic oil in the lowest part of the hydraulic system.
Dump Trucks: Share the Road Safely?
Dump trucks and standard-sized vehicles can share the road safely if drivers are aware and understand how dump trucks operate. There are many common mistakes drivers of average-sized vehicles make when encountering dump trucks on the roadways. Blind Spots on Dump Trucks A dump truck has many blind spots that don’t allow its driver to see standard-sized, especially very small, vehicles. The truck driver cannot see directly under the front hood area. Small cars can disappear entirely from the truck driver’s sight in this zone. If a car follows too closely in the rear they also cannot be seen. One of the worse blind spots is the passenger side of the dump truck, from the door to the front nose. Avoid driving in this area. You will be best seen beside the truck’s box. If there are several lanes, the safest side to pass a dump truck is on its driver’s side. Dump Trucks Cannot Stop Fast The average dump truck and trailer weighs about 100,000-105,000 pounds when fully loaded. It takes a much longer distance to stop a dump truck than a 2,500 pound vehicle. Allow plenty of room before pulling out or merging in front of a dump truck. Watch out for Trailers Accidents can occur when inattentive drivers change lanes or merge onto highways. If waiting on a dump truck to go by you before changing lanes, be sure to look to see if it is pulling a trailer. Many drivers accidentally merge into or beside the truck’s reach—the long metal piece connecting the trailer to the truck—as they change lanes. Some states allow trucks to pull two trailers, which means you need to wait for both trailers to pass. Never Pass a Turning Truck Never try to pass a turning dump truck. They need plenty of space to maneuver around corners. Stay out of the “bite” or “death” zone, which is in the inner part of the u-shape trucks make when turning. You cannot be seen at all. The trailer will run over your vehicle as the truck straightens out and begins pulling its trailer forward. Stay well behind the trailer until the turn is complete.
How do you operate tri axle dump truck?
If you have experience operating a Class 8 truck, you should have the driving part down. If not, I would suggest you go to a truck driving school - you're not going to learn how by simply reading about it. As for the PTO controls, it depends on which PTO system you have. Normally, you push in the clutch, engage the main PTO control, let off the clutch, and use the secondary PTO control to raise and lower the dump body. Some systems differ, however.
