EXTENDABLE PLATFORM Fig. 7
- The vehicle loading platform is equipped with retractable
sides that allow you to adjust the size of the hopper to
your transportation needs.
- To vary hopper dimensions, simply loosen the knobs (21)
and remove the side as needed.
DUMPER HOPPER
- On request, a dumper type hopper is available to transport
liquid cargo as well.
ATTENTION: to stop the vehicle, proceed slowly
to avoid tipping the load.
- Make sure the platform is loaded correctly.
TRANSMISSION (Fig. 8)
- Periodically check that there are no leaks or oil loss from
the transmission.
Oil type: oil SAE 80 / 90
Capacity: 1.5 litres
Oil change: after 50 hours
Subsequently every 500 hours
Perform oil changes while the transmission is warm.
- Place a container under the cap (22)
- Remove the cap (22) and let the gear empty completely.
- replace the cap (22) and lock on.
- Remove the cap (23) and pour in 1.1 litres of oil.
- replace the cap (23) and lock on.
ADJUSTING THE TRANSMISSION BELT Fig. 3 - 4
In the event that the belt slides, therefore lowering the lever
(10) into the "disengaged" position (F) see fig. 11, and the
vehicle will not move, loosen the 4 fastening screws (A,
B,C, D) that attach the electric motor to the frame, lightly
push the latter forward toward the hopper and,
simultaneously, remove the 4 fastening screws.
ADJUSTING THE PARKING BRAKE Fig. 11 - 12
ATTENTION: proper operation of the brake allows
blocking of the vehicle when the red lever (10) -
position (E) is released.
Adjustment must be carried out in such a way that, when
the red lever (10) is engaged - position F-, the brake unlocks
to permit vehicle drive.
- When the red lever (10) is in the "disengaged" position
(E), the control cable (G) must be free and, therefore, not
in tension.
- When the red lever (10) is in the "engaged" position (E),
the control cable (G) must be in tension to unlock the
brake.
To adjust the cable, proceed as follows:
-to lengthen the cable: loosen the locknut (30) and screw
in the nut (29).
-to shorten the cable: loosen the locknut (30) and screw in
the nut (29).

7. LOADING PLATFORM

Comply with the maximum load capacity. Overloading or
use of the vehicle exceeding the maximum allowable slope
can not only deteriorate the vehicle but exposes the
operator to the danger of a tipping load.
MANUAL UNLOADING Fig. 14
- Raising: press the release lever (34) towards the handle
(35) and lift the hopper.
- Lowering: using the handle (35), lower the hopper, making
sure that the locking device blocks the hopper.
ATTENTION: for your safety, unloading must always
be carried out on flat ground and while the vehicle is
stationary.

8. ROUTINE MAINTENANCE

With the red lever in "disengaged" position (E), and therefore
with the vehicle stopped, the brake spring (26) must be in
tension. Proper tension corresponds to a distance between
spring coils of 2 mm.
Properly tighten locknuts after adjustment has been
completed.
ATTENTION: Once adjustment has been completed,
check that the brake is properly working. If not, the brake
jaws must be replaced.
ADJUSTING THE STEERING LEVER Fig. 13
- Make sure that the lever has an initial clearance of 5 - 10
mm.
- To adjust the lever: loosen the locknut (31) and tighten or
loosen the adjusting screw (32) until the lever has been
correctly adjusted.
- Properly tighten locknut (31) after adjustment has been
completed.
Properly tighten all locknuts after adjustment has been
completed.
BELT TENSION ADJUSTMENT Fig. 9 - 10
surface.
Fig. 9 Check belt tension: press at the centre of the belt,
on the upper part, with a force of about 5kg. The pressure
should lower the height of the belt at the pressure point,
from 8 to 10 mm.
- If you should need to adjust the tension of the belt, proceed
as follows (see fig. 10) :
If the height of the locknut exceeds 8-10 mm:
- loosen the locknut (24) on the tensioners (25).
- tighten the screws (25) equally (to keep the tensioning
wheel aligned with the vehicle) until the belt has been
properly adjusted.
In seaside areas, it is advisable to wash the vehicle and
grease it entirely after each use.
Periodically remove the electrical system cover (14) and
spray with a protective spray for electrical systems.
