Starting the Engine
Stand on the platform. Move the auxiliary
hydraulics lever to neutral. Follow instruc-
tion on starting engine as detailed in the engine
manufacturer's manual.
Using Cylinder Locks
IMPORTANT:
Normal maintenance should
be completed with the Dingo arms lowered. If
maintenance or repairs requires the Dingo arms
raised, use cylinder lock provided with Dingo.
WARNING!
Dingo arms may lower when in
the raised position. Anyone under the Dingo
arms could be injured or crushed. To avoid this
hazard always install cylinder locks or a safety
stand. (Contact a Dingo representative if you
are unsure).
4in1 Bucket Lever
The 4in1 bucket lever opens and closes the
4in1 bucket. Push the lever forward to open
the bucket. Pull the lever backward to close
the bucket. When you let go of the lever it will
return to the centre and hold the bucket it the
current position.
Hydraulic Immobiliser
Each Dingo K9-4 is fitted with a security
hydraulic immobiliser. This immobiliser locks
the hydraulic system allowing no oil flow to the
wheels, thus making it impossible to drive the
machine away.
To engage the immobiliser:
1
Push the flow divider all the way forward
2
Push in the immobiliser lock
The flow divider is now locked into position
allowing no oil flow to the wheels.
To unlock the immobiliser:
1
Unlock the immobiliser lock using the key
2
Wriggle the flow divider lever to release the
lock from the flow divider
3
Move the flow divider lever back to the drive
position.
Warning Light
The warning light indicates low engine oil
pressure and high engine temperature. Ensure
you stop the engine immediately this light comes
on. Operating with the warning light on may
cause serious engine damage.
Auxiliary Power Socket
The auxiliary power socket is a 12 volt power
outlet for running lights, portable air compressors
mobile phone chargers etc. Power is available
from the socket when the ignition key is in the
ON position. To turn power off turn the key to
the OFF position.
Stopping the Dingo
To stop the machine, move the drive control
levers to neutral, lower Dingo arms to the
ground, and turn the ignition key to OFF to
stop the engine. Remember to remove the key
from the key switch.
CAUTION
! If children or bystanders attempt to
operate the Dingo, someone could be injured. To
avoid attempted use by children or bystanders
while machine is unattended, remove key from
the ignition, even if just for a few minutes.
Moving a Non Functioning
Dingo
The best way to move a non functioning Dingo
is by forklift or crane. It is also possible to push
or tow a Dingo without the use of the engine. By
adjusting the Over Centre Valve it is possible to
free up the hydraulic circuit, allowing the wheel
motors to turn freely. Please call your nearest
Dingo service centre for more information.
Stopping the Engine
Refer to the relevant engine manual.
Note:
If the engine has been working hard or
is hot, let it idle for a minute before turning the
ignition key to OFF. This helps cool the engine
before it is stopped. In an emergency, turning
the ignition key to OFF will stop the engine.
