DINGO 150 User manual

USER MANUAL

IMPORTANT! Look through before you start operation!
Engine of the vehicle start with unclosed and unshut bonnet, safety protection and housings is
prohibited. Limiting temperature of safe engine start with application of means of start facilitation is
-30С0. Engine start at environmental temperature lower than -30С0 isn't guaranteed. Manual
emergency engine start is foreseen.
Means of engine start facilitation under hard frost:
1. When you have finished your trip, before you power off an engine, press a throttle arm intensively
several times. Spark plug will clear itself and it will be easier to start the snowmobile next time.
2. Start the snowmobile at regular intervals and warm up the engine. At temperature
approximately -30
degrees the engine cools down to atmospheric temperature in 30-40
minutes.
3. Take accumulator battery off the snowmobile and keep it warm during long-term
parking
4. Don't allow intense accumulator battery discharge, possibly don't leave the snowmobile in freezing
temperatures for a long time (start at low temperatures can damage the engine).

SAFETY MEASURES
The snowmobile is a high risk vehicle. Driving the snowmobile is different from driving other vehicles,
including 4-wheelers and automobiles. Even when making simple manoeuvres, such as turns, driving uphill or
driving on an uneven surface a collision or rollover of vehicle may easily occur if all protective measures aren't
observed.
Read attentively this manual and all legend and follow the prescribed driving instructions.
Don't drive your snowmobile without an appropriate training. Don't let people who don't have a tractor
driver / machine operator certificate of an appropriate category and necessary driving experience drive the
snowmobile.
Driving the snowmobile intoxicated is prohibited.
Always be extremely attentive while driving an unfamiliar territory. Be ready to changes of terrain
conditions while driving your snowmobile.
Always hold both hands on a wheel and both feet on footboards while driving.
Don't drive your snowmobile on descents too sharp for your vehicle and your experience. Practice on
small descents before you proceed with big ones.
Jumps and other tricks are prohibited.
Never choose too high speed if it doesn't correspond to your skills and service conditions. Always choose
speed appropriate to a road, degree of visibility, service conditions, and your experience.
Always follow the rules of inspection and maintenance, specified in this manual. Before every usage of
the snowmobile make sure that it is in good order and
is safe for driving.
Driving the snowmobile without a protective helmet of an appropriate size is prohibited. Also one has to
wear eye protection and clothing appropriate to weather conditions.
  While driving for long distances always have a reserve fuel load.

SAFETY MEASURES
Always follow the appropriate instructions of this manual while crossing a sloping surface. Avoid
slopes with a too slippery or damaged surface. Move your weight to the side of a slope. Never turn your
snowmobile on a slope until you practice your turn technique on even surface. If possible avoid crossing sharp
hills.
Always follow appropriate instructions of this manual while descending and braking on a hill. Inspect
a road attentively before descent. Move your weight back.
Never descend a hill on high speed. Avoid descending a hill angle-wise. This may make your snowmobile tilt
sidewise. If possible, descend carefully down.
Never exceed a work load of your snowmobile. A transported load should be evenly distributed and
safely fixed. Leave a big distance for braking.
Never fix your snowmobile with the help of inappropriate equipment or
devices.
Always follow appropriate instructions of the manual while driving uphill. First check a road surface.
Never drive uphill on a too slick road
or a road with a damaged topping. Move your weight forward. Never drive uphill on high speed.
Always keep to appropriate recommendations if while driving uphill the engine died
or the vehicle started moving back. For the engine not to die while driving uphill, sustain a steady speed.
Be careful in case of sliding or drifting. Learn to drive safely in case of
sliding or drifting, practicing at underspeed on an even, smooth surface. On too slickery surfaces like ice move
slowly and be very careful to mitigate the risk of sliding or drifting.
Driving the snowmobile at the age up to 18 is prohibited.

DESCRIPTION OF DINGO SNOWMOBILE
The snowmobile purpose.
The snowmobile DINGO T150 is an off-road motor vehicle designed for
transporting of people, loads through snowy bad roads at environmental temperature from plus
50С to minus 400С. Because of design features of the snowmobile a long driving on ice or packed snow is not allowed, as
slide moldings of a track block may burn. If such a trip is needed from time to time go to areas with a soft snow for
lubrication of slide moldings.
Design of snowmobile.
The DINGO T150 snowmobile is designed according to a classical scheme 'two skis ahead/one track behind'. When
using this scheme the snowmobile is supported by three points situated in a triangle. Due to this the snowmobile has an
optimal stability sufficient for solving of the majority of tasks before it. Also the design is a guarantee of its comparatively
little weight, optimal location of gravity center, movability and maintenance accessibility of the main units.
On the DINGO T150 snowmobile is installed a four cycle gasoline engine with a volume of 149.6
cubic centimeters with an additional oil forced/air forced cooling (oil radiator). A carburetor is equipped with an automatic
throttle arm diffuser heating which guarantees its stable work in diverse temperature range.
The DINGO T150 snowmobile is equipped with an automatic transmission-CVT. Transmission selector lever serves
for switching to reverse or forward running and switching to neutral.
The snowmobile is equipped with a track with a length 2626 m and width 380 mm with grousers with height of 23 mm,
a roller-slide suspension of a caterpillar truck with two bumpers with a possibility of regulation.
The snowmobile is completed with a two-stand wheel grips and a gas cock heating, a 12V socket for outer equipment,
a closed suspension space with pockets and braces, a windshield glass, an electronic multimode instrument panel, a system of
emergency engine shutting down, a system of alternate engine start, a hydraulic disc brake.

STRUCTURE OF THE SNOWMOBILE

BASIC CONTROLS
Ignition lock.
Ignition lock (1) is located to the right from instrument panel on a tank plastic (in the photo).
There are two ignition lock positions:
1. 'OFF' position - the whole circuit is broken; a key can be withdrawn from the ignition lock.
2. 'ON' position - the whole circuit is completed; the engine may be started; impossible to
withdraw the key.
Fuel tank
1. Fuel indicator. The green indicator shows
fuel level in a tank. If the fuel indicator is fully green –the tank is full, if the indicator is fully red –
the tank is empty. Reloading of the snowmobile is required. 2. Fuel tank cap.
Maximal fuel tank capacity is 7 liters. Fill the snowmobile only with gas with octane number 92. Kill
the engine while filling. Fill the snowmobile only with a cold engine, using for it a funnel
with a net with diameter not less than 150mm, excluding fuel
insertion on a damper and engine. While taking off the fuel tank
cap rotate it slowly. For tightening turn right. Gasoline level should
be not higher than tank filler edge, otherwise the fuel will be
splashing out. Don't fill an adders to gasoline –using them may
bring the engine out of operation.
While driving to far distances one should always have a reserve fuel load!
Fuel valve:
Fuel valve with a mud box (3) is located under the gas tank. It has the following
fixed positions: 'ON' position (On) (1) –normal position during the snowmobile work. Gasoline
comes through the fuel valve to the carburetor.
'OFF' position (Off) (2) –valve position during the snowmobile stop. Gasoline is not enter into the
carburetor.
Perform the snowmobile filling with care, as gasoline is classified as a highly inflammable liquid, its
fumes are explosive. Don't smoke while filling the snowmobile and don't fill not far from naked flame
source! It is prohibited to operate the snowmobile in case of dribbling of fuel from the carburetor, fuel
valve or fuel tank.
