Operating
• After engine warms up, pull throttle lever (1) to ac-
celerate engine speed (shown Fig.1 pos.H).
• Engage the required gear (7) and slowly squeeze
the clutch control lever (4). Press the latch (Fig. 8
Pos.A) to operate with the clutch lever (4). If the
gear does not engage straight away, slowly release
the clutch lever (4) and try again.
Steering
The dumper has the steering levers (3)+(5) on the
handlebars and this makes steering very easy. To
turn right or left, simply operate the corresponding
right (3) or left (5) 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.
m Attention!
The dumper has a maximum load capacity of
300kg. 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 us-
ing low gear and taking extra care. 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 that the unit has all-wheel drive but
you need to be careful when working under ad-
verse weather conditions (ice, heavy rain and
snow) or at soil types that can lead to instability
of the dumper.
Please note that this is a wheeled vehicle that
considerable pitching when driving over bumps,
holes and steps subject.
When the clutch control lever (4) is released, the
machine will stop and brake automatically.
If you stop the machine on a steep slope, you
should position a wedge in the direction of fall
to secure the device.
Idle speed
Set throttle control lever (1) to its "L" position to re-
duce stress on the engine when working is not being
performed.
Lowering the engine speed to idle the engine will
help extend the life of the engine, as well as con-
serve fuel and reduce the noise level of the machine.
Stopping engine
m Attention!
To stop the engine in an emergency, simply turn the
engine switch (2) to the „OFF" position.
Under normal conditions, use the following proce-
dure.
