- Insert the key into the ignition switch (fig. 1) and rotate to the IGNITION position
(B) . Wait a few moments until the engine preheating indicator goes out.
- Press the throttle pedal 1/4 of the stroke and turn the key to position (C) to start
the engine. Do not hold the key in this position for more than 15 seconds.
- If the engine does not start repeat the above steps, waiting 30 seconds between
each attempt. Before re-starting the engine, the key should first be switched to
position
(A) .

Verifications
With the engine running and the dumper at a standstill, carry out the following checks
and tests.
- Check the indicators and switches on the instrument panel.
- Check the steering by turning it gently to the left and right.
- Lift the bucket about 150 cm (6 in.)
- Check the park brake.
- Check that the brake pedal action is firm.

Parking the dumper and stopping the engine.
Note: Whenever the dumper is parked, whether at the end of the day or for purposes of
maintenance, it should be left on level ground.
- Lower the bucket completely, lock the park brake and place the driving control
switch and the joystick in NEUTRAL.
- If the dumper has been operating to full capacity, keep the engine running at idle
for 1 minute.
- To stop the engine, rotate the ignition key (fig. 1) counter-clockwise to the
position (A) .
- Remove the key from the ignition switch and take with you. Never leave the key
in the parked dumper.

Dumper nominal load
The nominal load is the load which can be safely carried by the dumper. It is determined
by the height of elevation and the weight of the load. The ground conditions and the
shape of the load may also reduce the weight which can be safely lifted. Excess loads
may cause instability, make driving difficult and risk the dumper overturning.
Ensure that the load to be transported is within the limits indicated on the dumper
identification place
(fig. 2) ; this place is located on the lower left of the driving position
underneath the seat (fig. 2) .
The use of tools other than the standard tools delivered with the dumper may reduce the
transport, load and bucket tipping capacity.
