Operation
Starting Work
After ensuring all daily checks have been undertaken (see above), move the engine throttle to choke and start the
engine by turning the ignition key. Once the engine is running and set down to idle, when required engage drive by
increasing the engine throttle to maximum.
Forward Speed
The forward working speed will depend greatly on the working conditions and nature of the material being cut.
Optimal speed will be in the region of 3-8 km/h (2-5 mph).
Tipping Mechanism
The PC120 comes with electric tipping. To operate the electric tip, this is done via a simple two button control for
open & close (see below).
The tipping will stop when it’s reached full travel
in either direction. Click switch back to
the ‘neutral’ position once stopped
.
Storage
For extended periods of storage, it is advisable that the machine be first cleaned thoroughly and fully lubricated.
Any servicing and maintenance should be undertaken prior to storage, and any worn components replaced.
NOTE: Fuel should be treated with a suitable fuel stabilizer before extended storage!
THE ENGINE MUST BE RUN AT MAXIMUM SPEED AT ALL TIMES WHEN IN USE
