INTRODUCTION
Dear Customer,
We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your confidence in us
shown by purchasing a CORMIDI Minitransporter. This product was designed and
constructed for longevity and to be used with maximum reliability.
It is, however, absolutely necessary to read this manual carefully in which the pro-
cedure for optimum use of the equipment is described: improper use may provoke
harm to oneself and cause injury to persons and/or to one’s health.
Therefore, always keep this manual within easy reach so that it may be consulted
at any time, before, during, and after use. If the machine is resold, do not forget to
give it to the new owner in that inside there is the EC compliance certificate.
We would like to remind you that the illustrations contained in the manual corre-
spond for the most part to the base model and that our models are regularly im-
proved and perfected with the goal of allowing our customers to enjoy the maxi-
mum benefits of innovations in technology: for this reason the characteristics and
the information contained in the present manual may have been varied recently.
We ask you to contact us in case you should encounter difficulty.
Remember for supplementary information you can always contact your sales rep-
resentative/dealer, or you can contact us directly by telephone or by email at in-
[email protected]. If there is any doubt, it is better to ask rather than proceed on
your own.
We leave you to your perusal of the manual and enjoyment of your machine!

Your machine is guaranteed for 24 months from the date of its delivery and in-
cludes the substitution of anything in particular that has resulted as, in the opinion
of our Technical Office, affected by construction defects.
Any part in particular that was not constructed by the manufacturer, parts used
in/on terrain surfaces, and breakdowns caused by incompetence or carelessness,
including fuelling, are excluded from the guarantee.
The motor, instead, is covered under the manufacturer of the motor’s own war-
ranty according to the foreseen conditions and terms.
The guarantee immediately expires if the machine is utilized for uses different
from those foreseen by the Manufacturer, if it is damaged by the use of unauthor-
ized accessories or if it is repaired using unsuitable parts.
With the machine a Certificate of Warranty was supplied which outlines the
norms which regulate the service of assistance under warranty. We highly rec-
ommend reading the warranty form to fully understand the various rights and re-
sponsibilities. Collaborate with your sales representative when filling out the
form and make sure it is filled out correctly, in that the text and the other formali-
ties (shipment within the time limit, etc.) represent the legal base for the warranty
on the machine.
1.2 GOAL OF THE MANUAL

The information contained here within is addressed to expert operators, equipped
with specific knowledge and competence in the sector of use. The manual defines
the objectives for which the machine was designed and constructed.
To avoid incorrect manoeuvres that risk accident, it is important to read this man-
ual particularly before the first use to familiarize oneself with the principal com-
mands and their functions.
