• a series of hose connections including:
• at least one material filling inlet for receiving the plastics granular material from the first cabin,
• at least one exhaust for discharging blown-in conveying air from the inliner, and
• at least one material emptying outlet for emptying the plastics granular material from the inliner;
• a protective liner system comprising:
• a series of panels surrounding the perimeter of the front wall,
• a pivotal flap for protecting the at least one inlet and the at least one exhaust during transportation, and
• a housing protruding outward from the front wall and surrounding the at least one outlet;
