SAFETY LABEL IDENTIFICATION
The safety section lists safety precautions required to be taken when operating or maintaining a
Kanga Loader. Read and follow all operating and safety instructions contained in this Manual and
illustrated on the decals fitted to the Loader, and ensure that you assess the risk of any task by use
of the attached Job Safety & Environmental analysis (JSEA) sheet.
If you are unable to identify hazards or do not understand the process for use of the JSEA chart,
stop the job and consult a qualified Occupational Health and Safety consultant.
16
SAFE OPERATION
The Kanga Loader is a versatile machine, capable of performing a variety of tasks in a safe and
effective manner, when used in accordance with established procedures and supported by Risk
Assessment. However, to ensure the safety of operators and others, it is important to ensure that
the capacity of the machine is not exceeded and that the Loader is operated appropriately, and only
after all tasks associated with the work at hand have been documented and the relevant risk control
measures implemented.
To ensure the safe operation and transport of your Kanga Loader, the following basic Safety Rules
must be understood and complied with at all times.
MY
CY
CMY
• Always use the tie down points on each side of the machine to secure the Loader
when transporting.
• Always use witches hats, signage and traffic signals to control the unloading/loading zone,
particularly when in close proximity to operational roads.
Before Commencing Work:
• Ensure all safety instructions are clearly understood, that operating manuals have been read
and that operators are familiar with the controls of the Kanga Loader.
• Ensure that the daily inspection routine has been successfully conducted. It is particularly
important to ensure that all attachment Locking Pins are fully engaged and secure.
• Ensure the driving platform is free from dirt, grease or mud before use.
• Check all controls for proper response. Shut down the machine if a fault is detected, tag the
machine out with an “Out of Service” tag, remove the key and contact the local Service Agent.
• Review the working site for hazards through the use of a Job Safety Analysis and/or Risk
Assessment and implement the risk control measures to eliminate or minimise their effects,
such as:
o Overhead power lines
o Underground services
o Excavations
o Slopes or adverse cambers
o Confined spaces
o Other obstructions
o Other people or animals accessing the working area or machine
17
ALWAYS
• Completely read and understand the Operator’s Manual supplied with the machine.
• Undertake a Job Safety and Environmental Analysis (JSEA) and/or Risk Assessment before any
use of both the Kanga Loader and the trailer upon which the Loader and/or attachments are
carried. A blank JSEA is provided in Appendix A for use. Photocopy as required.
• Use the Job Safety and Environmental Analysis Checklist to check that the relevant safety
procedures are in place before work commences.
• Position the trailer carrying the Kanga in an area free from traffic, establish a traffic control
plan/zone, chock the wheels and ensure that people are not placed in a position where they
can be struck by vehicles or equipment being loaded or unloaded.
• Demarcate the work area with barricades and/or witches hats before using the Kanga Loader.
• Identify, mark and delineate all underground services before any work commences.
• Have both feet planted firmly on the driving platform at all times when operating the Kanga
Loader. This is especially important when carrying loads, as body weight provides additional
counter-balance to the bucket load.
• Come to a complete stop before changing direction from forward to reverse and vice versa.
Failure to do so can affect the stability of the Loader and may also damage the drive of your
machine.
• Come to a complete stop before operating other hydraulic controls.
• Reverse down slopes at slow speed when carrying loads.
• Ensure the machine is fully stopped and turned off before alighting or exiting the machine.
Never use control levers as hand holds, instead utilize the handholds, using the thumbs and
forefingers to operate the control levers.
• Travel at speeds suitable for the conditions and as determined by the task JSEA or
Risk Assessment.
• When traveling over undulating surfaces and/or rough terrain, it is essential that the
operator ensures that the speed is appropriate to suit conditions and to creep over uneven
terrain at minimum speed. The recommended normal operating speed is between 2/3 to 3/4
throttle; at a lower speed the noise levels are reduced to both the operator and bystanders.
• Wear approved, appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), such as:
o Hearing protection
o Safety footwear
o Eye protection
o Hard hat
o Long, close fitting protective clothing
o A high visibility vest or clothing, etc.
• Keep hands, feet and clothing away from all moving parts,
including hydraulic rams.
• Keep body parts within the confines of the machine.
• Keep alert, and avoid being distracted whilst operating
the loader.
• Remove the key and chock the wheels whenever the Loader
is to be left unattended and/or unsupervised.
18
NEVER
CAUTION
Always exercise care when operating on slopes. The Kanga Loader has been designed
to be able to access restricted areas, due to its minimal width. This, however, reduces
its stability when crossing slopes.
Crossing slopes should be avoided wherever possible. If it is not possible, slopes should
be traversed with loads lowered as far as possible, reduced speed and extreme caution.
19
FIVE STEPS TO EFFECTIVE JSEA
1
DOCUMENT THE ACTIVITY
Assemble those involved in the activity and then, using the JSEA worksheet, write
down in step by step form, the tasks that make up the activity.
2
IDENTIFY THE HAZARDS
Next to each task, identify what part of the task may cause injury to those engaged
in the task or others in the vicinity.
3
DOCUMENT THE CONTROL MEASURES
For each identified hazard, assess the associated level of risk to those involved, and
then list the control measures required to eliminate or minimise those risks.
4
IDENTIFY WHO IS RESPONSIBLE
Document the name of the person responsible for implementing the
control measure.
5
Ensure that the activity is supervised and that the documented process is being
followed. The documentation should be reviewed whenever a documented activity
changes or when there is a change of personnel or after an appropriate length
of time.
20
NO GO ZONES FOR UNDERGROUND UTILITY SERVICES
No work is to commence on any worksite until you have checked if it contains underground
services. Here is how you can find out.
• The “Dial Before You Dig” service (in Australia), dial 1100, provides free and easy access
to the records of a large number of organizations, including telecommunications, water,
electricity and gas.
• To see a list of organizations registered with the service or to log an enquiry electronically, visit
the Dial Before You Dig website at www.dialbeforeyoudig.com.au, or telephone 1100 (otherwise
consult with your local environment department).
If underground services are present, you must comply with the No Go Zones.
If the worksite contains or is suspected to contain ANY underground services, before any work
commences, you must follow the relevant No Go Zone safety procedures:
• No Go Zone safety procedures are available from all gas, water, telecommunications and
electricity companies.
• You must follow these safe systems of work at all times. If you cannot comply with these safety
procedures, then NO work shall be undertaken without written permission being received from
the utility company.
• The Kanga Loader and attachments must be kept a minimum distance of 2 meters from all
underground services.
MAINTAIN A MINIMUM OF 2 METERS DISTANCE FROM ANY UNDERGROUND SERVICE.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE STARTING
Check the fuel level and fill up if necessary. Ensure that the fuel is the correct type, free from
impurities or water. Check that both the crankcase oil and hydraulic oil levels are within
operating limits.
CAUTION: Check that all control levers below are in the neutral centre position.
NOTE: Ensure The Auxiliary Power Lever (3) has automatically returned to the “Engine Start”
position from the “Work” position If this lever is not in neutral, the engine will attempt to start under
full load. This will place strain on the starter motor potentially flattening the battery.
STARTING
Refer to the engine manual for correct throttle (7) starting positions in warm and cold conditions.
Turn starter key switch to start engine.
CAUTION: Do not move any of the control levers unless standing with both feet
on the driving platform and holding the grip handles, ensuring non-operating
personnel are clear of the Loader.
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 2/3 to ¾ Throttle.
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
limit your ability to safely exit from the Kanga Loader.
CAUTION: Always exercise care when operating on slopes. The Kanga Loader
is approximately 1 meter (39”) wide, which is a great benefit for 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.
29
CONTROLS
On the top face of the KANGA Loader are Six spring centred levers which control the basic
functions. The table below indicates the levers with their corresponding functions:
7 8
1 2 4 5 6
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 an open, safe area.
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.
30
PARKING AND SHUTDOWN
When parking the Kanga always select level ground and lower any bucket or attachment fitted fully
to the ground. To shut down, reduce the engine speed to idle and turn the key to the off position.
Remove the key to prevent unauthorised use.
• When loading/unloading the Kanga from the trailer, it is important that the trailer remains
attached to the towing vehicle on a firm even surface.
• Do not unload a trailer on a slope.
• Ensure bystanders are sufficiently clear.
• All loading/unloading to be carried out using a ramp must be done at a slow speed, with due
care for personal safety and damage to equipment. Practice the manoeuvres first on flat

4 IN 1 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Towards the end of the run when the bucket is nearly full, gently tilt the
bucket (rotate the bucket) towards the Loader. This decreases the lifting
resistance when the arms are raised and promotes an efficient tear out.
The material may then be dumped into a trailer or utility truck for removal
or repositioning on the site.
When scraping, levelling and surface stripping, lower the bucket to the
ground, tilt it down and so raise the front wheels slightly off the ground.
Drive forward using the back wheels, the bucket will bite into the soil as
you move forward.

TRENCHING VALVE
DESCRIPTION
The trenching valve is specially designed to convert the Kanga Loader together with the trencher
attachment into a high performance trenching machine. The valve provides load sensing to ensure
the trencher travel speed stays balanced to the trencher cutting speed regardless
of the ground conditions.
The trencher valve assembly comprises a group of cartridges forming a complex circuit. Servicing
and repair to the trencher valve is usually restricted to cartridge element replacement.
Sequence Valve (4) Overcentre Valve (3)
NOTE: If the flow control valve (1) is fully closed all flow is directed to the trencher motor and no oil
can flow to the drive motors; no regulating occurs.
Return oil from the trencher motor flows through the C port and the over centre valve (3) to the Tank
(T) port.
In the event of excessively hard trenching with the drive motor driving against the trenching chain
the drive circuit pressure will rise above the setting of the sequence valve (4) and it oil will get
diverted to the tank. In this condition a constant load is held against the trenching chain by the drive
motors. When reversing the trencher chain (Aux. Lever up) eg. to clear the chain from rocks or wood,
oil flow is directed to port VLV B. System pressure will rise to the setting of the sequence valve (4)
and then flow will get diverted to port C and therefore reversing the trencher motor.
NOTE: If the flow control valve (1) is fully closed all flow is directed to the trencher motor and no oil
can flow to the drive motors; no regulating occurs.
Return oil from the trencher motor flows through the C port and the over centre valve (3) to the Tank
(T) port.
51
PRESSURE SETTINGS
Before adjusting anything on the trencher valve check all main pressure settings as outlined in
chapter “Service Tasks - Hydraulics’ from the Operators Manual.
With the same setup as outlined there: hydraulic oil warmed up, pressure gauge (0-300 bar / 0-3400
PSI) plugged into test point, engine running at full speed (3600 rpm) do the following:
The pressure should be set at: 69 – 76 bar (1000-1100 PSI) on all models.
The pressure should be set at: 186 bar (2700 PSI) on B Series Petrol Models
• With trencher above ground and chain running forward (Aux Lever (A) down) pull both drive
levers backwards (to reverse Loader) and then start opening Flow Control valve (1) slowly.
• The loader should start moving backwards.
• The more the valve is opened the faster the loader should move.
52
SERVICE TASKS - VISUAL
VISUAL CHECK
Check all over machine for loose bolts, cracks and dents after every 100 operating hours. Tighten
loose bolts, and replace if worn or damaged.
