IMPORTANT: Do not high pressure wash.
High pressure washing can damage the electrical
system.
Tyres and Traction
The correct tyre pressure is usually between
172 and 241 kpa (25-35psi). (Use lower
pressures for soft ground conditions & higher
pressures for hard ground conditions) Use of
incorrect tyre pressure will reduce the stability
and carrying capacity of the Dingo.
Filling the tyres with water can improve the
Dingo’s stability for lifting applications. Water
lling equipment can be purchased from Dingo
Australia.

Operating
Instructions
Read all the safety instructions and the pre start
up section of this manual and the engine manual
before operating the Dingo.
Caution - Do not operate any of the control
levers (including auxiliary lever) unless you
are standing with both feet on the platform and
rmly holding the grip handles.
IMPORTANT! Ensure the auxiliary
hydraulic lever is in the centre position
before attempting to start engine. The most
common cause of ‘hard to start/engine, will not
turn over fast enough, battery does not have
enough power’ type starting problems is that
the auxiliary lever has been left on or knocked
into gear and the engine is trying to start under
load.
