SAFETY
General Safety Rules
Understand your machine
Read and understand the operator’s manual and
labels affixed to the machine. Learn its application
and limitations as well as the specific potential
hazards peculiar to it.
Be thoroughly familiar with the controls and their
proper operation. Know how to stop the machine
and disengage the controls quickly.
Make sure to read and understand all the
instructions and safety precautions as outlined in
the Engine Manufacturer’s Manual, packed
separately with your unit. Do not attempt to
operate the machine until you fully understand
how to properly operate and maintain the Engine
and how to avoid accidental injuries and/or
property damage.
Work area
Never start or run the machine inside a closed
area. The exhaust fumes are dangerous, containing
carbon monoxide, an odorless and deadly gas.
Operate this unit only in a well ventilated outdoor
area.
Never operate the machine without good visibility
or light.
Personal safety
Do not operate the machine while under the
influence of drugs, alcohol, or any medication that
could affect your ability to use it properly.
Dress properly. Wear heavy long pants, boots and
gloves. Do not wear loose clothing, short pants,
and jewelry of any kind. Secure long hair so it is
above shoulder level. Keep your hair, clothing and
gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes,
jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection.
Safety equipment such as a dust mask, hard hat,
or hearing protection used for appropriate
conditions will reduce personal injuries.
Check your machine before starting it. Keep guards
in place and in working order. Make sure all nuts,
bolts, etc. are securely tightened.
Never operate the machine when it is in need of
repair or is in poor mechanical condition. Replace
damaged, missing or failed parts before using it.
Check for fuel leaks. Keep the machine in safe
working condition.
Never remove or tamper with safety device. Check
their proper operation regularly.
Do not use the machine if the engine’s switch does
not turn it on or off. Any gasoline powered machine
that can not be controlled with the engine switch
is dangerous and must be replaced.
Form a habit of checking to see that keys and
adjusting wrenches are removed from machine
area before starting it. A wrench or a key that is
left attached to a rotating part of the machine may
result in personal injury.
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating the machine.
Do not overreach. Do not operate the machine
while barefoot or when wearing sandals or similar
lightweight footwear. Wear protective footwear
that will protect your feet and improve your footing
on slippery surfaces. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times. This enables better control of
the machine in unexpected situations.
Avoid accidental starting. Be sure the engine is off
before transporting the machine or performing
any maintenance or service on the unit.
Transporting or performing maintenance or service
on a machine with engine on invites accidents.
Fuel safety
Fuel is highly flammable, and its vapors can explode
if ignited. Take precautions when using to reduce
the chance of serious personal injury.
All terrain minitransporter
Keep your hands or feet away from track
and rotating parts.
Do not smoke or have open flames.
Thrown objects.
Keep bystanders away.

4
When refilling or draining the fuel tank, use an
approved fuel storage container while in a clean,
well-ventilated outdoor. Do not smoke, or allow
sparks, open flames or other sources of ignition
near the area while adding fuel or operating the
unit. Never fill fuel tank indoors.
Keep grounded conductive objects, such as tools,
away from exposed, live electrical parts and
connections to avoid sparking or arcing. These
events could ignite fumes or vapors.
Always stop the engine and allow it to cool before
filling the fuel tank. Never remove the cap of the
fuel tank or add fuel while the engine is running
or when the engine is hot. Do not operate the
machine with known leaks in the fuel system.
Loose the fuel tank cap slowly to relieve any
pressure in the tank.
Never over fill fuel tank. Fill tank to no more than
12.5mm (1/2”) below the bottom of the filler neck
to provide space for expansion as the heat of the
engine can cause fuel to expand.
Replace all fuel tank and container caps securely
and wipe up spilled fuel. Never operate the unit
without the fuel cap securely in place.
Avoid creating a source of ignition for spilled fuel.
If fuel is spilled, do not attempt to start the engine
but move the machine away from the area of
spillage and avoid creating any source of ignition
until fuel vapors have dissipated.
Store fuel in containers specifically designed and
approved for this purpose.
Store fuel in a cool, well-ventilated area, safely
away from sparks, open flames or other sources
of ignition.
Never store fuel or machine with fuel in the tank
inside a building where fumes may reach a spark,
open flame, or other sources of ignition, such as a
water heater, furnace, clothes dryer and the like.
Allow the engine to cool before storing in any
enclosure.
Machine use and care
Position the machine in such a way that it can not
move during maintenance, cleaning, adjustment,
assembly of accessories or spare parts, as well as
under storage.
Do not force the machine. Use the correct machine
for your application. The correct machine will do
the job better and safer at the rate for which it
was designed.
Do not change the engine governor settings or
over-speed the engine. The governor controls the
maximum safe operating speed of the engine.
Do not run the engine at a high speed when you
are not working.
Do not put hands or feet near rotating parts.
Avoid contact with hot fuel, oil, exhaust fumes and
hot surfaces. Do not touch the engine or muffler.
These parts get extremely hot from operation.
They remain hot for a short time after you turn off
the unit. Allow the engine to cool before doing
maintenance or making adjustments.
If the machine should start to make an unusual
noise or vibration, immediately shut off the engine,
disconnect the spark plug wire, and check for the
cause. Unusual noise or vibration is generally
warning of trouble.
Use only attachments and accessories approved
by the manufacturer. Failure to do so can result
in personal injury.
Maintain the machine. Check for misalignment or
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and
any other condition that may affect the machine’s
operation. If damaged, have the machine repaired
before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained equipment.
Keep the engine and muffler free of grass, leaves,
excessive grease or carbon build up to reduce the
chance of a fire hazard.
Never douse or squirt the unit with water or any
other liquid. Keep handles dry, clean and free from
debris. Clean after each use.
Observe proper disposal laws and regulations for
gas, oil, etc. to protect the environment.
Store idle machine out of the reach of children
and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the
machine or these instructions to operate it. Machine
is dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
Service
Before cleaning, repair, inspecting, or adjusting,
shut off the engine and make certain all moving
parts have stopped. Disconnect the spark plug
wire, and keep the wire away from the plug to
prevent accidental starting.
All terrain minitransporter

Specific Safety Rules
5
Have your machine serviced by qualified repair
personnel using only identical replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the machine
maintained.
Pay the utmost attention when working on frozen
ground as the machine may tend to skid.
If possible, avoid driving on pebbly river bed,
crushed stone terrains, steel concrete, stumpy
field, logs etc., since such operation causes fatal
damage or shortens life span of tracks.
Do not operate the machine in confined areas
where there may be a risk of crushing the operator
between the machine and another object.
Never operate the machine on slopes where angle
is over 20°.
When moving over a slope, whether moving
forward or in reverse, always make certain that
the weight is evenly balanced. Always move in
directions parallel with the slope (up or down). To
avoid danger, do not shift gears on slopes.
When tipping the load from a dumper, the centre
of gravity will change continuously and the ground
conditions will be essential for the stability of the
machine. There are special hazards for dumpers
working on soft ground and when the load is
sticking to body e.g. wet clay.
Thoroughly inspect the area to be worked, keep
the working area clean and free of debris to prevent
tripping. Operate on a flat level ground.
Never place any part of your body where it would
be in danger if movement should occur during
assembly, installation, and operation, maintenance,
repairing or moving.
Keep all bystanders, children, and pets at least
23m (75 feet) away. If you are approached, stop
the unit immediately.
Do not mount on dump box and never carry
passengers.
Never park the machine in a place with unstable
ground which could give way, particularly when
it is full.
Disengage clutch lever before starting the engine.
Start the engine carefully according to instructions
and with feet well away from the moving parts.
Never leave the operating position when the engine
is running.
Always hold the unit with both hands when
operating. Keep a firm grip on the handlebars. Be
aware that the machine may unexpectedly bounce
upward or jump forward if the machine should
strike buried obstacles such as large stones.
Walk, never run with the machine.
Do not overload the machine capacity. Drive at
a safe speed, adjusting the speed to the slope of
the land, the surface conditions of the road, and
the weight of the load.
Use extreme caution when in reverse or pulling
the machine towards you.
Exercise extreme caution when operating on or
crossing gravel drives, walks, or roads. Stay alert
for hidden hazards or traffic.
On soft ground, drive at the first forward/reverse
gear. Do not rapidly accelerate, turn sharply or
stop.

Minitransporter Operation
Adding fuel
Fill the fuel tank as instructed in the separate
Engine Manual packed with the machine.
Starting engine
A more detailed description of the engine operation
and all related precautions and procedures can be
found in the Engine Manual packed separately
with the minitransporter.
Follow the procedure below for cold starts:
Turn choke lever on the engine to full choke
position.
Set the throttle lever on the handlebar at half-
way position.
Turn the engine switch on.
Pull the starting rope slowly several times to
allow the gasoline to flow into the engine’s
carburetor. Then hold the start handle firmly
and pull rope out a short distance until you
feel some resistance. Then pull the rope
smoothly and briskly, and allow rope to return
gently. Do not let the rope snap back. If
necessary, pull the rope several times until the
engine starts.
Allow the engine to run for several seconds to
warm up. Then, gradually move chock lever to
“OPEN” position.
Restarting an engine that is already warm from
previous running does not normally require use of
the choke.

Tipping handle
It controls tipping of the dump box. Pull the tipping
handle up to release the dump box's locking device
and raise the dump box. Pull the tipping handle
down to its original position. When the dump box
is lowered, the locking mechanism operates, locking
the dump box. To check whether the dump box
is locked securely, try to lift it without pulling up
the tipping handle.
Set the throttle lever on the handlebar at half-
way position.
Hold the start handle firmly and pull rope out
a short distance until you feel some resistance.
Then pull the rope smoothly and briskly, and
allow rope to return gently. Do not let the rope
snap back.
Operating
After engine warms up, pull throttle lever to
accelerate engine speed.
Engage the required gear and slowly squeeze the
clutch control lever. If the gear does not engage
straight away, slowly release the clutch lever and
try again. In this way the minitransporter will start
moving.
The minitransporter has the steering levers on the
handlebars and this makes steering very easy. To
turn right or left, simply operate the corresponding
right or left steering lever.
The sensitivity of the steering increases in
proportion to the speed of the machine and that
with the empty machine, a light pressure on the
lever is all that is needed to turn. While when the
machine is loaded, more pressure is required.
The minitransporter has a maximum capacity of
300kg. However, it is advisable to assess the load
and adjust it according to the ground on which
the machine will be used.
It is therefore advisable to cover such stretches
using low gear and taking extra care. In such
situations, the machine should be kept in low gear
for the whole stretch.
Avoid sharp turns and frequent changes of
direction while driving on the road, in particularly
on rough, hard terrains full of sharp, uneven points
with a high degree of friction.
Even though the unit has rubber tracks, remember
to be careful when working in adverse weather
conditions (ice, heavy rain and snow) or on types
of ground that could make the minitransporter
unstable.
Please note that as this is a tracked vehicle, it is
subject to a considerable pitching movement when
passing over bumps, holes and steps.
When the clutch control lever is released, the
machine will stop and brake automatically.

Adjusting clutch
As clutch wears out, the same lever could have a
wider opening, being so uneasy to use. This means
that it is necessary to adjust the cable, setting
clutch lever on its original position acting on the
adjustment device and on counter-nut.
Adjusting steering
If you have difficulty steering the unit, you will
need to adjust the steering levers with the special
adjusters. Slacken off the locknut and unscrew the
adjusters to eliminate the play in the cable, which
can occur after initial use or normal wear. Be very
careful not to unscrew the adjusters too much
because this can create another problem: the loss
of traction. Remember to tighten the locknut when
you have finished.
Lubrication
The gearbox is pre-lubricated and sealed at the
factory.
Check oil level every 50 hours of working. Remove
the plug and check, with machine horizontal, oil
reaches the two notches. If necessary, add the oil.
Use portable tool lithium #0 grease such as
Lubriplate 6300AA , Lubriplate GR-132, or Multifak,
e.g. EP-O.
Oil must be replaced when hot by unscrewing filler
cap and plug equipped with an oil dipstick. When
oil is completely drained, replace filler cap and fill
up with new oil.
Tightening tracks
With use, tracks tend to loosen. When operating
with loose tracks, they tend to slip over the driving
wheel causing it to jump its housing or to work in
precarious situation, thus damaging wear to the
housing.
To check track tightness, proceed as follows.
Set the machine on a flat surface with compact
ground, better on an asphalt or stone pavement.
Lift the machine and set it on blocks or supports
rated for the weight of the machine so that the
tracks are approximately 100mm off the ground.
Measure the track midline vs. the horizontal
line. The reading must not be more than 10-
15mm.

2.
All terrain minitransporter
3.
MAINTENANCE
If the machine is stopped on a steep slope, a wedge
should be placed against one of the tracks.
Idle speed
Set throttle control lever to its “SLOW” position
to reduce stress on the engine when working is
not being performed. Lowering the engine speed
to idle the engine will help extend the life of the
engine, as well as conserve fuel and reduce the
noise level of the machine.
Stopping engine
To stop the engine in an emergency, simply turn
the engine switch to the OFF position. Under
normal conditions, use the following procedure.
Move the throttle lever to the SLOW position.
Let engine idle for one or two minutes.
Turn the engine switch to the OFF position.
Turn the fuel valve lever to the OFF position.
1.
2.
3.
4.
Do not move choke control to CHOKE
to stop engine. Backfire or engine
damage may occur.
A proper maintenance and lubrication will help
the machine in a perfect working condition.
Preventive maintenance
Turn off engine and disengage all command levers.
Engine must be cool.
Inspect the general condition of the unit. Check
for loose screws, misalignment or binding of moving
parts, cracked or broken parts, and any other
condition that may affect its safe operation.
Remove all debris and other materials that may
have accumulated to the track and unit. Clean after
each use. Then use a premium quality lightweight
machine oil to lubricate all moving parts.
Never use a “pressure washer” to clean your
unit. Water can penetrate tight areas of the
machine and its transmission case and cause
damage to spindles, gears, bearings, or the
engine.Theuseofpressurewasherswillresult
in shortened life and reduce serviceability.

12
when removing or installing the tracks,
be careful not to get your fingers caught
between the track and pulley.
Engine maintenance
Refer to the Engine Manual included in your unit
for the information on engine maintenance. Your
engine manual provides detailed information and
a maintenance schedule for performing the tasks.
STORAGE
If the minitransporter will not be used for a period
longer than 30 days, follow the steps below to
prepare your unit for storage.
Drain the fuel tank completely. Stored fuel
containing ethanol or MTBE can start to go stale
in 30 days. Stale fuel has high gum content and
can clog the carburetor and restrict fuel flow.
Start the engine and allow it to run until it stops.
This ensures no fuel is left in the carburetor.
Run the engine until it stops. This helps prevent
gum deposits from forming inside the
carburetor and possible engine damage.

If the distance is greater, proceed as follows.
Use the tipping handle to tip the dump box
and set it on blocks or supports rated for the
weight of the box.

If the adjustment bolt has no more
adjustment left, the tracks may have
to be replaced.
Replacing tracks
Check the condition of the tracks periodically. If
any track is cracked or frayed, it should be replaced
as soon as convenient.
The adjustment of the track and the
brakes are linked, therefore be very
careful because if the track is over-
tightened, the braking effect will be lost.
1. Dismount the dump box.
2. Let the tracks loose enough.
3. Replace the tracks in such a way as illustrated
in the figure.
4. Adjust the tracks to correct tightness.
