CHARGING THE BATTERIES
a) Plug extension cord to side the side of Track-O and into the wall plug or to a
generator.
b) Once plugged-in, a green LED on the Control Panel indicates current is reaching the
Track-O. After 15 to 30 seconds the Voltmeter should indicate between 25 and 26 V.
c) If, after 15 to 30 seconds, the Voltmeter does not go up to between 25 and 26 V,
disconnect the Track-O, wait 15 minutes and re-start process.
d) If the Voltmeter still does not go up to 25 or 26 V contact Technical Support.
IMPORTANT:
INPUT:110/240 V, 50/60 HZ,12/6 AMPS
OPERATING POWER:24 VDC, 30 AMPS
Prior to shipping the batteries were charged and tested. Therefore, once the battery
is connected and the breaker is in the «ON» position, the Track-O should work.
For a full and even charge, we recommend the Track-O be recharged overnight.
The Batteries can be «topped-off» any time the machine is stopped. The Track-O can
be plugged-in during breaks in the operation.
FOR SAFETY REASONS,DO NOT OPERATE THE TRACK-O WHILE IT IS PLUGGED-IN.
However, in case of an emergency the Track-O can operate while it is plugged-in.
FOR SAFETY REASONS, BEFORE OPERATING THE TRACK-O PLEASE READ THE
OPERATING MANUAL

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
PRIOR TO USING THE TRACK-O FOR THE FIRST TIME
Read the Operating Manual from cover to cover.
Be able to distinguish the FRONT from the REAR of the TRACK-O.
The «leverage arm» is found at the FRONT of the TRACK-O. The optional
«adjustable back-rest» is found at the back of the TRACK-O. (SEE DIAGRAM AT
BOTTOM OF PAGE 6)
Be able to solidly fasten the tie-down straps to the TRACK-O’s anchoring devices.
Know exactly where the «Emergency Stop Button» is located on the TRACK-O’s
frame.
Know where the wireless remote control is located (the TRACK-O is optionally
equipped with one).
Be able to identify the power inlet cord used to charge the batteries.
PRIOR TO MOVING A LOAD WITH THE TRACK-O TWIN-TRACK
Make sure the tie-down straps and the anchoring devices are in good working
condition at all times and that the Track-O is functioning properly on level
ground prior attempting any manoeuvres on an inclined surface.
The weight of the load to be moved along a horizontal surface must not exceed
2200 lbs/1000 kg (Up to 3,300 lbs / 1.5 tons on a flat incline of 10 degrees).
The weight of the load to be moved up or down an inclined surface or a staircase
must not exceed 1100 lbs/500 kg. The load must not exceed 60 inches in height
on the Track-O.
When moving on stairways, the stairway must be in good condition and capable
of supporting the combined weight of the TRACK-O and the load. The Track-O
«Twin-Track 47» weighs 630 lbs/286 kg and «Twin-Track 66» weighs 820 lbs/ 372
kg.
The batteries must be sufficiently charged (as indicated by the charge level
indicator).

18
Movex Innovation Inc.
PRIOR TO MOVING A LOAD WITH THE TRACK-O TWIN-TRACK
(CONTINUED)
The TRACK-O must not be set in motion while the cord for recharging the battery
is still plugged in.
Only one operator must be in control of either the cabled or the wireless remote
and must absolutely avoid using both remotes simultaneously.
The path where the TRACK-O will be passing must be cleared of any obstacles.
Staff must be posted in strategic locations (for example, the top landing and
bottom of a stairwell) to prohibit access while the TRACK-O is being used. Never
allow anyone to stand at the foot of the stairs.
Dockboard of bridgeplates shall be properly secured before they are driven over.
Dockboard or bridgeplates shall be driven over carefully and slowly and their
rated capacity never exceeded.
Elevators shall be approached slowly, and then entered squarely after the
elevator car is properly levelled. Once on the elevator, the controls shall be
neutralized and turn the power off.
NEVER leave the TRACK-O unattended with the “On-Off” switch at “RUN” (the
apparatus could be set in motion inadvertently).
In order for the Track-O to function properly the surface where the TRACK-O is to
be used must be free of grease, oil and other lubricants that would otherwise
reduce the adherence between the rubberized track and the ground.
When the Track-O is operated on a flat surface, it should not be in movement in
a lateral inclination of more than 7 degrees.
When the apparatus is operated on a longitudinally inclined surface, it shall not
be in movement in a longitudinal inclination of more than 40 degrees.
The Track-O should not be used in environments containing hazardous
concentrations of metal dust, including aluminium, magnesium, and their
commercial alloys, other metals of similarly hazardous characteristics, or in
environments containing black carbon, coal or coke dust.

19
Movex Innovation Inc.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
AMBIENT OPERATING AIR TEMPERATURE
The Track-O will function in temperatures between -25° C and +40° C (-13° F and
+104°F)
IMPORTANT: For working environments with ambient temperatures exceeding
+40° C (+100°F) it is strongly recommended that the Track-O be UPGRADED to
be equipped with 2 HP motors, 125 Amp Drives and 135 Amp batteries.
Working in temperature over +40°C (+100°F) will cause the Electric Drives to
shut down the Track-O functions. The Track-O could become operational again,
once the Electric Drives have been cooled.
Working in temperatures below -25°C (-13F) will result in a reduction in the
Track-O’s speed and carrying capacity and will result in a dramatic reduction in
the batteries’ continuous run-time capacity.
IMPORTANT: Batteries should be fully charged prior to operating the Track-O in
sub 0°C (32°F) conditions. Partially or un-charged batteries exposed to sub 0°C
(32°F) conditions may be permanently damaged.
AMBIENT OPERATING ENVIRONMENT
The Track-O should not be used in environments containing hazardous
concentration of acetylene, tutadiene, ethylene oxide, hydrogen (or gases or
vapors equivalent in hazard to hydrogen, such as manufactured gas), propylene
oxide, acetaldehyde, cyclopropane, diethyl ether, ethylene, isoprene, or
unsymmetrical dimethyl hydrazine (UDMH.
STORING THE TRACK-O
The Track-O should always be stored:
With all emergency buttons on the «OFF» position
In a locale with limited access
Where it is not exposed to rain or snow
In a locale with an ambient temperature between -10° C (14° F) and 30° C (86° F).

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
POSITIONING A LOAD ON THE TRACK-O
1. Make sure the “ON-OFF” switch is OFF prior to putting load on the TRACK-O.
ON STAIRS
2. When placing the load on the Twin-Track for climbing and descending stairs, the
center of gravity of the load must be closer to the Front of the machine than the
center of gravity of the Twin-Track (see diagram below). The center of gravity of
the Twin-Track is indicated by a pictogram on the side of the platform.
ON INCLINES (HILLS,GULLIES,ETC)
WHEN CLIMBING STAIRS THE TRACK-O CLIMBS FRONT-END FIRST.WHEN DESCENDING STAIRS,THE
TRACK-O MOVES BACKWARDS:REAR-END FIRST.THIS MEANS THE FRONT-END SHOULD ALWAYS BE
AT THE HIGHER END OF THE STAIRS.
IN CASES WHERE THE TRACK-O CAN BE TURNED SO THAT THE FRONT END IS ALWAYS ON
THE HIGHER END OF THE HILL:THIS MEANS,CLIMBING FRONT-END FIRST AND
DESCENDING REAR-END FIRST (BACKWARDS)–THE INSTRUCTIONS FOR CLIMBING
STAIRS APPLIES.
IN CASES WHERE THE TRACK-O WILL BE MOVING UP AND DOWN IN THE SAME
DIRECTION –FOR EXAMPLE:GOING DOWNHILL FRONT-END FIRST AND THEN GOING UP
HILL FRONT-END FIRST –THE LOAD MUST BE PLACED AT THE CENTRE OF THE TRACK-O.
