OPERATING THE TRUXTA
1. Start the engine by putting the throttle to the run position and turning the
ignition on. (use choke if cold)
2. Grip the dead man lever and hold it down.
3. Use the forward and reverse levers to control direction of travel and speed.
4. Never press both levers at once or whilst the dead man is released as this will
cause unnecessary strain on the operation cables
EMPTYING THE SKIP
1. Stop the machine by releasing the Drive Lever followed by releasing the dead
man Brake Lever.
2. Once the machine has become stationary, pull the Skip Release Lever and the
Skip will tip forwards disposing of its contents.
3. When the Skip is empty, push back to its original position. The Skip will lock

If any fault is discovered, the TRUXTA must not be used until the fault is rectified.
1. Thoroughly inspect the TRUXTA for signs of damage.
2. Check components are present and secure.
3. Check fluid lines, hoses filler openings, drain plugs and any other areas for
signs of leakage.
Fix any leaks before operating.
4. Check the engine oil and fuel levels and top up as necessary.
5. Check the tyre pressures and top up as necessary.

Hydrostatic Oil
Top up if oil is below minimum level when machine is cold. If there are any
signs of leakage, stop using the machine and contact your local dealer or
Tufftruk Ltd. Refill with motor oil —20W50.
Machine Cleaning
Clean the machine after it has been used to prevent the collection of hardened
debris. Hardened debris is very difficult to remove. To clean it use an old brush
or hand brush with water. Never pressure wash or hose down the engine or
electric motor housing. Clean only with a cloth or compressed air.
Air Filter - If it is dirty, proceed as follows:-
Foam Element - Wash the element in a solution of washing-up liquid and water.
Allow the element to dry, then soak in clean engine oil and squeeze out the
excess oil. If the engine smokes during start-up then too much oil has been left
on the foam.
Paper Element - Tap the element on a hard surface or blow from inside using
compressed air to remove any excess dust within the filter. Replace every 200
hours or if it is extremely dirty.
Transmission Drive Chains
Clean and lubricate the 2 transmission drive chains once a year.
Tyre Pressure
Truxta tyre pressure should be regularly checked and maintained at 25PSI
(flotation and turf tyres)
