1 INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your choice of a Baumalight
Tracked Mini Skidsteer. This equipment has been
designed and manufactured to meet the needs of
a discriminating buyer for e󰀩cient operation.
Safe, e󰀩cient and trouble free operation of your
skidsteer requires that you and anyone else who
will be operating or maintaining the skidsteer, read
and understand this Operator’s Manual.
This manual covers the Baumalight Tracked Mini
Skidsteer TRL620Y. Use the Table of Contents as
a guide to locate required information.
Keep this manual handy for frequent reference
and to pass on to new operators or owners. Call
your Baumalight dealer, distributor or the factory
if you need assistance, information or additional
copies of the manuals.
When this machine is worn out and no longer in
use, it should be returned to the retailer or other
party for recycling.
OPERATOR ORIENTATION - The directions left,
right, front and rear, as mentioned throughout this
manual, are as seen from the operator’s platform
and facing in the direction of travel.
1.1 Overview
The skidsteer is designed to be used by experienced
operators, trained in the safe operation and hazards
related to using the skidsteer and the safe use of
the skidsteer for the intended purpose. Operators
will require personal protective equipment to
reduce the risk from some hazards that cannot be
completely eliminated or controlled by the design
of the skidsteer.
The skidsteer is not designed for use in hazardous
atmospheres where there is a risk of re or
explosion due to ammable gases or vapors. Use
in hazardous, explosive atmospheres is prohibited.
Serious injury or death of the operator or
bystanders may be caused if the skidsteer is
misused. Misuse may also cause damage to the
attachment skidsteer is carrying.

Detailed engine information and warranty can be
found in the Yanmar engine manual provided with
the skidsteer.
The basic engine warranty is as follows:
• Engine is covered for 2 years from date of
original purchase, or 2000 hours, whichever
occurs rst. For TNV Series Industrial Engines
only, an extended limited warranty of 3 years
or 3000 engine operating hours, whichever
occurs rst, is provided for these specic
parts only: the cylinder block, cylinder head,
crankshaft forging, connecting rods, ywheel,

for 1 year. Any non Yanmar supplied parts are
not part of the Yanmar warranty and would be
covered based on that particular supplier’s
warranty policies.
• While the engine is under warranty, all claims
must be approved by an authorized Yanmar
industrial engine dealer or distributor before
any work is started. Warranty claims without
proper authorization will be denied.
Yanmar highly recommends registering the retail
purchaser’s information through the website

10. Replace ller cap and dipstick.
11. Install engine side panel.
12. Close hydraulic cooler and tighten knobs (A).
Check Hydraulic Fluid Level
Check hydraulic uid level before the engine is rst
started and every 10 hours. AW32 is recommended
for general conditions and climates. MV22 is
recommended for colder climates.
Attachments can raise or lower the hydraulic uid
level. If a new attachment is connected, hydraulic
uid needed to ll the lines, cylinders or motor will
lower the hydraulic tank uid level. Check uid level
each time a di󰀨erent attachment is connected.
1. Skidsteer must be parked on a level surface,
lift arms fully lowered, engine stopped and key
removed.
A
B
2. Check uid level in sight glass (A). Hydraulic
uid should ll approximately 50% of the sight
glass. If the level is low, add enough uid to
raise it to the proper level.
3. Clean the area around the ller neck of the
hydraulic tank.
4. Remove the cap (B) from ller neck and add
hydraulic uid as needed.
