Operating
After engine warms up, pull throttle lever to accelerate engine speed.
The Hydraulic Tracked Dumper has the steering levers on the handlebars and this makes steering very easy. To turn right or left, simply operate the corresponding right or left steering lever.
The sensitivity of the steering increases in proportion to the speed of the machine and that with the empty machine, a light pressure on the lever is all that is needed to turn. While when the machine is loaded, more pressure is required.
The Hydraulic Tracked Dumper has a maximum capacity of 800kg. However, it is advisable to assess the load and adjust it according to the ground on which the machine will be used.
It is therefore advisable to cover such stretches using low gear and taking extra care. In such situations, the machine should be kept in low gear for the whole stretch.
Avoid sharp turns and frequent changes of direction while driving on the road, in particularly on rough, hard terrains full of sharp, uneven points with a high degree of friction.
Remember to be careful when working in adverse weather conditions (ice, heavy rain and snow) or on types of ground that could make the Hydraulic Tracked Dumper unstable.
When the clutch control lever is released, the machine will stop and brake automatically.
If the machine is stopped on a steep slope, a wedge should be placed against one of the wheels.
Idle Speed
Set the throttle control lever to the SLOW position to reduce stress on the
engine when work is not being performed. Lowering the engine speed will help
extend the life of the engine, as well as conserve fuel and reduce noise
level.
Stop Engine
To stop the engine in an emergency, simply turn the engine switch to the OFF
position. Under normal conditions, use the following procedure:
1.Move the throttle lever to the SLOW ( ) position. 2.Let the engine idle for
one or two minutes. 3.Turn the engine switch to the OFF position. 4.Turn the
fuel valve lever to the OFF ( ) position.

Travelling on slopes
Specific safety instructions
Driving across slopes
EN
The dumper may be driven on firm ground across a slope of up to 10°.
In order to avoid accidents, observe these safety instructions in particular when driving on slopes.
Dump in the skip when driving the machine.
Dump in the skip when driving the machine.
Always drive in low speed on slopes!
This also ensures more precise and smooth movements of the steering system.
When driving on slopes or across obstacles,
MAX. 10°
Do not steer or drive across slopes.
If possible, avoid changing direction when driving on slopes
When steering the machine, ensure that you can stop safely at all times if the
machine starts to skid or if it becomes unstable.
Dumping, swivelling or using the skip on slopes can cause the machine to lose
its balance and to tip over.
Avoid this under all circumstances.
Do not drive on slopes steeper than 15°, otherwise the machine can tip over.
Do not drive across slopes steeper than 10° otherwise the machine can tip over
laterally.
If the tracks slip when driving uphill and it is no longer possible to move on
with the force of the tracks alone
Do not use any auxiliary means to move the machine otherwise it can tip over.
Always drive straight ahead when driving uphill or downhill. Driving
diagonally or at an angle to the slope is very dangerous.
Avoid changing direction on slopes or driving across a slope.
Drive slowly in meadows, on leaves or wet steel plates. The machine risks
slipping even if the slope is not steep. If the engine stops as you drive
across a slope, immediately put the control levers to neutral position and
start the engine again.
Do not exceed the maximum slope.
The angle must be smaller in the case of soft and uneven ground! Do not
actuate the skip as you drive on slopes Always dump in the skip before driving
on slopes Always keep the loader unit 30-40 cm above the ground when driving
the machine. Always reduce your speed as you drive on slopes Always drive
straight ahead when driving uphill or downhill. Avoid driving diagonally or at
an angle. The machine is very narrow. Therefore, drive very carefully on
slopes or on soft or uneven ground. Drive with extreme care on slopes in rain
or if the ground is wet or slippery

Maintenance
3. Measure the track midline vs. the horizontal line. The reading must not be more than 10cm-15cm.
Maintaining your Hydraulic Tracked Dumper will ensure long life to the machine
and its components.
Preventive Maintenance
1. Turn off the engine and disengage all command levers. The engine must be
cool.
2. Keep the engine’s throttle lever in its SLOW position and remove the spark
plug wire from the spark plug and secure.
3. Inspect the general condition of the power trackbarrow. Check for loose
screws, misalignment or binding of moving parts, cracked or broken parts, and
any other condition that may affect its safe operation.
4. Use a soft brush, vacuum or compressed air to remove all contaminants from
the machine. Then use high quality light oil to lubricate all moving parts.
5. Check the spark plug wire regularly for signs of wear, and replace when
needed.
Never use a “pressure washer” to clean your unit. Water can penetrate tight
areas of the machine and its transmission case and cause damage to spindles,
gears, bearings, or the engine. The use of pressure washers will result in
shortened life and reduce serviceability.

Take off the cover #3 by unscrewing the two screws #4. Using two wrenches,
loosen the counter nut #2, tighten the nut #1. Put the cover back on. Repeat
the same procedure on the other track.
Replacing Tracks
10cm ~ 15cm
Hydraulic Oil
Operate the valve levers to lift the self-loading shovel to the highest
position and tip the hopper to the extreme. Unscrew the oil plug and drain the
oil into a container.
Remove the oil dipstick with gasket and add hydraulic oil. The recommended
hydraulic oil is 10W AW32, ASLE H-150, or ISO 32. Tank capacity is 22.5L.
Attention! Do not operate the valve levers during draining or adding oil, to
prevent the shovel and hopper from falling.
Tightening Tracks
With use, tracks tend to loosen. When operating with loose tracks, they tend
to slip over the driving wheel causing it to jump its housing, thus damaging
wear to the housing.To check track tightness, proceed as follows. 1. Set the
machine on a flat surface with compact ground, or on asphalt or pavement. 2.
Lift the machine and set it on blocks or supports rated for the weight of the
machine so that the tracks are approximately 10 cm off the ground.
Check the condition of the tracks periodically. If any track is cracked or
frayed, it should be replaced as soon as convenient. 1. Lift up the hopper and
insert a support rod for safety purposes. 2. Lift the machine and set it on
blocks or supports rated for the weight of the machine so that the tracks are
approximately 4″ off the ground. 3. Remove the two nuts M10 with washers and
take off the front guard plate. 4. Loosen the adjusting bolts and pull the
steering wheel axle toward the engine, then track will be loosen. 5. Pull out
the whole track.
When removing or installing the tracks, be careful not to get your fingers
caught between the track and pulley.

Storage
Secure the machine against unintentional movement
If the Hydraulic Tracked Dumper will not be used for a period longer than 30
days, follow the steps below to prepare your unit for storage.
1. Drain the fuel tank completely. Stored fuel containing ethanol or MTBE can
start to go stale in 30 days. Stale fuel has high gum content and can clog the
carburetor and restrict fuel flow.
2. Start the engine and allow it to run until it stops. This ensures no fuel
is left in the carburetor. Run the engine until it stops. This helps prevent
gum deposits from forming inside the carburetor and possible engine damage.
3. While the engine is still warm, drain the oil from the engine. Refill with
fresh oil of the grade recommended in the Engine Manual.
4. Use clean cloths to clean off the outside of the machine and to keep the
air vents free of obstructions.
Ensure that no-one is near the machine! Have loads fastened and crane
operators guided by experienced persons only! The person guiding the crane
operator must be within sight or sound of him Ensure that the crane and the
lifting gear (cables, chains) have sufficient load-bearing capacity! Only
raise the machine with an empty loader unit and skip Stay clear of suspended
loads! It is essential that you read the safety instructions at the beginning
of this chapter and follow any other safety instructions relevant in your
country!
Load the machine as follows:
· Empty the skip and the loader unit
· Lower the skip
Do not use strong detergents or petroleum based cleaners when cleaning plastic parts. Chemicals can damage plastics.
· Stop the engine · Remove the ignition key. · Use suitable lifting gear, chains etc
5. Inspect for any loose or damaged parts. Repair or replace damaged parts and tighten loose screws, nuts or bolts.
· Slowly raise the machine
6. Store your unit on flat ground in a clean, dry building that has good ventilation.
Do not store the machine with fuel in a non-ventilated area where fuel fumes may reach flame, sparks, pilot lights or any ignition sources.
