You have eight running gears, and an auxiliary gearbox effectively allowing you to split the gears. For the running gears, go to a truck driving school - you're not going to learn how to shift an unsychronized transmission by just reading about it.
For the gear splitting, you put the splitter (on the side of the transmission) to the desired postion (forward to increase the ratio, rearward to decrease it), let off the accelerator, pause for a second, then get back on the accelerator. If you don't know what you're doing, DO NOT split the bottom gears - you can tear those up very easily.

How many gears are there in a dump truck?
"Dump truck" (or "tipper") is a pretty ambiguous term. It's simply a truck with a dump body. You could take an older one ton pickup with a three speed transmission, and put a dump body on that. As far as the big ones go, it varies. For some odd reason, the Eaton SmartShift, Meritor, etc. nine through 18 speed speed automatic transmissions haven't been made available for most straight truck applications, so your automatic trucks will have five or six gears (the Allison six speed auto is popular for sitework trucks), whereas manual transmissions will range from eight to 18 gears. The 8LL tends to be more popular for sitework trucks which will go off-road.. the 8LL is basically a nine speed with low reduction gears on the low side. For a dump truck which is doing something exclusively on-road, like stock hauling, the owner may opt for something like a straight nine, ten, 13, or 18 speed, rather than the 8LL, as they're not likely to have any use for the low reduction gears that might be necessary for a sitework truck which would be prone to going off road.
What is the difference between 18 speed and 18 gears?
No differences, they mean the same.
