Take the Power Pack to where it is required.
When using the wheels and transport handle ALWAYS ensure the handle latch is engaged before
transporting the Power Pack (see image)
Where it is necessary to use lifting equipment to position the Power Pack, make sure the lifting
equipment has a WLL (Working Load Limit) suitable for the Power Pack's weight (see Technical Data
section or machine serial plate). Attach suitable chains or slings ONLY to the lifting point on the top of the
Power Pack.
Starting the Engine
NOTE:- Refer to the engine manual for details. Always ensure the Bypass lever is in the Bypass position.
Petrol Engines
1) Open the fuel tap.
2) Close the choke on the carburetter.
3) Set the engine ignition switch to 'ON'.
4) Start the Engine by pulling on the recoil starter rope.
5) As the engine warms up, gradually return the choke to 'OPEN'.
NOTE:- Midi and Major petrol Power Packs are tted with a Power On Demand device and the engine will run at idle speed until
pressure is generated in the hydraulic system.
Diesel Engines
1) Open the fuel tap.
2) Set the engine speed control to the 'START' position.
3) Set the decompressor lever to the 'START' position.
4) Start the engine by pulling the recoil starter rope.
Operating Checks
Before commencing operation with the accessory tool connected, the following checks should be carried out.
1) Bypass lever is in the "FLOW' position.
2) Check that there is no excessive engine vibrations.
3) Ensure that there are no hydraulic leaks from hoses or couplings.
4) Check that the lter condition indicator is not within the clogging sector. When this sector is indicated, the return line lter should be
replaced.
Depending on the ambient temperature, optimum performance is usually achieved after 5-10 minutes operation, this is the time
required for the hydraulic oil to reach its correct operating temperature.
Stopping the Engine
NOTE:- Refer to the engine manual for details.
Petrol Engines.
1) Set the bypass lever to the 'BYPASS' position.
2) Set the ignition switch to 'OFF'.
3) Switch off the fuel tap.
Diesel Engines.
1) Set the bypass lever to the 'BYPASS' position.
