MANOEUVERING
The forward and reverse levers should be thought of as softly operated
clutches for engaging and disengaging the wheels. Use slow even
movements of the control levers for smooth operation of the loader.
Practice slow starts and gentle stops in a open, safe area.
Manoeuvring is made possible by individual controls for the hydraulic
motors on each side of. the machine. A turn may be achieved by varying
the amount and/or direction of power supplied to each side of the machine.
The machine is capable of turning in its own length by applying equal
forward and reverse power to opposite sides of the machine.
While moving forward a gentle turn, to the left for instance, can be made by
slightly increasing the power to the right hand side or by reducing the power
to the left hand side of the machine. This mode of steering allows the type
of turn to be chosen to suit the situation.
CAUTION
: First time users to use slow 1/3 throttle to practice safe operation before
commencing work, the recommended normal operating speed of the machine is between 2/3
and ¾ throttle
CAUTION
: Always ensure that the attachment locking
pins are fully engaged at all times.
CAUTION
: The Kanga Loader is not fitted with a "seat belt". The standing position is a
safety feature which allows a quick exit from the machine in case of an emergency. Do not
add a restriction system to the machine which will restrict exiting from the Kanga
Loader.
CAUTION
: Always exercise care when operating on slopes. The Kanga Loader is 1 metre
(39") wide. This is a great benefit providing access to confined spaces, however the
machine may become unstable if operating across a slope. If it is impossible to avoid
crossing a slope keep the load close to the ground and travel at reduced speed.
The maximum safe angle of slope is 20°. This angle is a recommendation only. The actual
safe slope angle will depend on site conditions, operator experience and activity.
Always exercise care when working on slopes.
