1. Turning operation requires the ball valve at
low speed. Operate it only after adjusting the
throttle according to the actual load. Do not
make a turn when the ball valve is at high
speed gear;
2. For driving, it is necessary to stably control
the valve lever. Avoid sudden stop or start in
operation;
3. For normal driving start, it is necessary to
stably control the valve lever to start when the
ball valve is at low speed gear;
4. To stop at high speed, the ball valve needs
to be switched to the low speed gear or small
throttle state to stabilize the control valve lever
to stop;
5. During normal driving, do not loosen one of
the two travel control valve levers to avoid mis
operation of high-speed turning;
6. When the self-loading shovel falls back, the
valve levers need to be stably controlled to
avoid big impact between the shovel and

IMPORTANT: DO NOT OVERFILL!
This equipment and/or its engine may include
evaporative emissions control system compo-
nents , required to meet EPA and / or CARB
regulations, that will only function properly
when the fuel tank has been filled to the recom-
mended level. Overfilling may cause permanent
damage to evaporative emissions control
system components. Filling to the recommend-
ed level ensures a vapor gap required to allow
for fuel expansion. Pay close attention while
filling the fuel tank to ensure that the recom-
mended fuel level inside the tank is not exceed-
ed. Use a portable gasoline container with an
appropriately sized dispensing spout when
filling the tank. Do not use a funnel or other
device that obstructs the view of the tank filling
process.

OPERATION
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.
To stop the engine in an emergency, simply turn the
engine switch to the OFF position. Under normal condi-
tions, 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.
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.

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,
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 59°F, otherwise the
machine can tip over.
Do not drive across slopes steeper than 50°F 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 down-
hill. 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, immedi-
ately put the control levers to neutral position and start
the engine again.

Maintaining your Hydraulic Tracked Dumper will ensure long life to the machine and its components.
If any part of the protective structure is affected by a plastic deformation and/or rupture, the protective structure must
be replaced according to manufacturer's specifications
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.
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.
3. Measure the track midline vs. the horizontal line. The reading must not be more than 3.94 - 5.91 inches.
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.
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 approxi-
mately 3.94 inch off the ground.
Never use a "pressure washer" to clean your unit. Water can penetrate tight areas of the machine and its transmis-
sion case and cause damage to spindles, gears, bearings, or the engine. The use of pressure washers will result in
shortened life and reduce serviceability.

MAINTENANCE
Check the condition of the tracks periodically. If any track is cracked or frayed, it should be replaced as soon as conve-
nient.
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 approxi-
mately 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.
Refer to the Engine Manual included in your unit for the information on engine maintenance. Your engine manual provides
detailed information and a maintenance schedule for performing the tasks.
When removing or installing the tracks, be careful not to get your fingers caught between the track and pulley.

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.
5. Inspect for any loose or damaged parts. Repair or replace damaged parts and tighten loose screws, nuts or bolts.
6. Store your unit on flat ground in a clean, dry building that has good ventilation.
Do not use strong detergents or petroleum based cleaners when cleaning plastic parts. Chemicals can damage
plastics.
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.
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.
