SAFETY
1. INTRODUCTION
Replacement parts
The Ecovolve range has been designed to be extremely low maintenance. Therefore
ordering spare parts is much less frequent than of traditional trucks. For questions about the
Truck and orders for spare parts, please contact your local Ecovolve distributor.
If the need to order spare parts arises, please provide the following information in addition to
the part numbers:
�Model number
�Serial number/Year of manufacturing
�Delivery date
Intended use
All Ecovolve electric dumpers have been built according to applicable standards and
regulations. Operationby inexperienced persons or in an unintended manner can result in
hazards that can lead to personal risk and subsequent harm to the operator and persons in
the operating area of the electric dumper. Improper use can damage the machine as well
as property in the vicinity of operation. The electric dumper is designed to work in conned
spaces such as narrow corridors and basements. It sits on a unique shaped chassis which
allows it to turn on its own axis. It is therefore far more maneuverable than a conventional
dump truck.
The Ecovolve Range are intended to transport
and empty materials within the specied
load capacity in normal operating conditions. It is the operators responsibility to use sound
judgment to assess whether a ground material
is compatible with use of the Truck. If in
doubt
contact your nearest distributor. Unintended use
can endanger the lives of operating
personnel
or other persons and cause injuries or extensive damage to the truck.
The rules for the normal and proper use of industrial trucks must be followed under all
circumstances by the responsible persons, in
particular by the operators and service personnel.
Failure to read and understand the entire manual before using or servicing the product
constitutes misuse. Always follow the warnings contained within this guide and on the
Truck to avoid incidents and accidents from occurring.
Operating Instructions
All operators must read and understand the
operating instructions before operating the truck.
A
copy of the Operators Manual should be kept in
the manual holder on the Truck at all times. A
copy
of this manual can be found in this document – Section 2. Before carrying out any work,
the operator should nd a remote site to become
familiar with the controls and machine
response.
The truck shall be in serviceable condition before
attempting to use it as described in
the operating
instructions. If the truck is determined not to be in
serviceable condition, notify the
site or machine
supervisor to have it repaired before use.

�Damages and other defects to the truck must be reported to the Supervisor immediately.
Trucks which are not safe to operate may not be used until they have been properly
repaired.
�Safety installations and switches may not be removed or rendered unusable.
�Specied settings may only be changed with the approval of the manufacturer.
Danger Area
�People must not stand in the danger area of an industrial truck. Danger areas are those areas
in which persons are in danger as a result of the movements of machines, their operating
equipment, their load carrying devices (e.g. their attachments) or the loaded goods. This also
includes the area which can be reached by falling goods or lowering or falling operating
equipment and devices.
Driving Conditions
�Use lights in dark and dim areas. Always ensure that there are no pedestrians in the trucks
rear swing area before turning.
�Under all travel conditions, operate the truck at a speed that will permit it to be brought to a
stop in a safe manner.
�It is essential to keep your truck under control at all times.
Load
�Do not exceed the capacity of the dumper. The capacity appears on the trucks identication
plate and the safety labels on skip.
�Do not overll the skip to impair the operators vision.
�Always make certain that the load is secured and arranged evenly in the skip.
�Do not allow people to ride on the dumper. Do not raise the skip over people. Never lift or
lower the load when the truck is in motion.
Unstable loads are a hazard to you and to your fellow workers.
2. SAFETY
Safety guidelines
Ecovolve strives to identify foreseeable hazards associated with the use of it’s products.
However,
no manual can address every possible risk. The possibility of other dangers when
using the truck
cannot be entirely excluded. The end-user ultimately must apply sound
judgment whenever using
the electric truck. Improper or careless use might result in serious
personal injuries or death. Below is
an overview of steps, warnings and advice that can be taken
to prevent and minimize the risk of injury.
This list is not exhaustive and awareness to each local
environment and situation must be exercised by the operator.
Failure to read and understand the entire manual before using or servicing the product
constitutes
misuse. Always follow the warnings contained within this guide and on the Truck to
avoid incidents
and accidents from occurring.
Safety Features
Ecovolve has introduced many safety features to
make the Ecovolve range safe and user
friendly. An overview of these are as follows:
�Three operating speeds: Creeper for when the skip is raised (under 1 km), Walking (under
4km), and Full (7km). The Truck automatically selects Creeper mode when the hi tip function
is activated, . It will automatically select the Walking mode when the step
is in the raised position. The operator can manually select the slower speed at any time if
necessary.
�The Truck has two pull-up safety rails for extra stability for the operator. These must be
used when the operator is using the operators platform.
�The Truck is tted with standard features such as a beacon light, motion buzzer and LED
lamps allowing for high visibility at all times.
�The operator Must use both hands on the tiller head when operating the Truck.
�The Truck is tted with both dynamic and static brakes. When the Truck is in reverse, if the
operator collides with an object, Their body will engage the large red EMR Reverse
protection switch which will stop the truck and move the truck forward. The Truck must only
be maneuvered in reverse and not driven for any prolonged distances.
�The Truck has an emergency stop button which can be easily accessed at any time during
operation by pushing down on the button.
�If the Truck is switched on and unattended for a period of longer than nine minutes, as a
safety precaution the machine will automatically switch all power o.
The operator must always be aware of their surroundings and maintain vigilance for their
