6• OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
6•1 PRE-DELIVERY INSPECTION
• The pre-delivery inspection is a highly technical operation and will
therefore be carried out by your approved dealer.
6•2 SAFETY SYSTEMS
• The wheelbarrow is equipped with safety switches which are activated
by :
1. the main switch
2. the neutral position of the joystick at start-up
3. the by-pass lever
4. the presence of an operator (dead-man)
In the event of a malfunction, stop your wheelbarrow and contact your
dealer, stating the error code shown on the dashboard display.
6•3 TURNING ON THE MACHINE
• Ensure the main switch is in position 1 (picture 1a).
•
Insert the ignition key into the key switch and turn it clockwise to
position 1
.
• The machine initialises. Wait until you hear a click (approximately 2
seconds after turning on)
.
• The charge level and time indicator are shown on the display. Your
machine is ready for use.
Help with startup :
• If while switching the power on, the ECO-function switch
remained in the «1» position, the display shows the 02A63
message. Change the ECO function switch to the «0» posi-
tion. Your machine is ready for use.
• If the display shows 02A43, the by-pass on your machine is
enabled. Turn off the machine and set the by-pass lever (see
picture 3) to 1. Repeat the startup procedure. Your machine
is ready for use.
To operate the wheelbarrow (see § 6•4), the machine must be powered
up (key switch in position 1).
6•4 DRIVING THE WHEELBARROW
6•4•1 HANDLEBAR HEIGHT
Your electric wheelbarrow is equipped with a handlebar height adjustment,
allowing you to work in a safe position.
• Loosen the levers (picture 4).
• Position the handlebar at the desired height.
• Tighten the levers (picture 4).
6•4•2 PARKING BRAKE
The parking brake is an electromagnetic brake.
• The parking brake is applied as soon as the machine is stopped .
• The brake is automatically released when the operator activates the
joystick (picture 2).
6•4•3 FORWARD CONTROL (PICTURE 2)
The forward direction of your electric wheelbarrow is controlled by a
joystick in addition to the operator presence detection located under
the handlebar to the rear right of the machine. If the trigger is not
activated the machine cannot be moved.
• Push the joystick gradually, to the left, to control the speed moving
forward.
• Push the joystick gradually, to the right to control the speed in reverse.
The joystick position determines the forward speed of the electric
wheelbarrow, from standstill (joystick not engaged) to the maximum
speed (joystick fully engaged), but also the dynamic braking.
• Release the pressure on the joystick to reduce forward speed.
• Let go the joystick to stop moving forward: the wheelbarrow is
slowed down progressively until a full stop (standstill in less than
1.5m).
If you release the dead-man switch, the wheelbarrow stops.
To avoid the batteries going into deep discharge (which could reduce
their service life), your machine is equipped with a discharge level
detection system, operating on two levels to optimize the autonomy
of the electric wheelbarrow
:
- level 1: when 75% discharge is reached, the drive speed is slightly
reduced.
- level 2: when 80% discharge is reached, the drive speed is slowed
considerably.
Once the first level is reached, the machine has approximately 10
minutes of autonomy to drive back to the charging point at normal
speed.
Prior to any operation, it is imperative to cut the power supply using
the circuit breaker (picture 1b).
6•5 POWER SAVING FUNCTION
The activation of this function increases the autonomy of your electric
wheelbarrow by reducing acceleration and limiting the maximum
power available. This also limits the maximum driving speed.
6•6 TRANSPORTING LIQUIDS (MBBR)
The hollow section of the tray forms a tank with a capacity of 85 L,
designed for carrying water or phytosanitary products.
CAUTION ! Do not carry hydrocarbons or food products. Only
carrying water and phytosanitary products is permitted.
• Filling is accessible from the rear by unscrewing the cap of the tank.
• A valve located under the front of the tray enables the drainage of the
tank, the filling of a watering can or the connection of distribution or
spraying accessories not included.
6•7 DRAINING THE TRAY (MBBR / MBBT)
Because the tray is on a hinge, it is easy to tip it forward :
• Press the tray tilt control (picture 5).
• Guide the tray as it tips to prevent it from impacting.
• The tray locks automatically in transport position when you fold it
towards the backward after draining.
6•8 DRIVING ON SLOPING GROUND
To ensure maximum safety when driving on slopes, follow the instructions
below :
- Avoid sudden starts.
- Always drive at low speed so as not to lose control of electric wheel-
barrow.

15
- Particular care should be taken when performing U-turns on sloping
ground. Prepare for the change of direction and reduce speed so as
not to lose control of the electric wheelbarrow.
6•9 RECHARGING YOUR MACHINE
After using your machine, the battery pack must be recharged.
• Turn the key switch to position 0.
• Turn off the power using the circuit breaker (picture 1b).
• Open the protection cover (A picture 7a) of the charging plug and
connect the charger: insert the connector and rotate clockwise until
it locks (picture 7a).
• Plug the charger into a mains power outlet (230V 50Hz).

for warranty have been respected by the buyer.

or to warranty extension.
