the machine at a sufficient distance from the working tools.
Rain and/or moist soil increase the risk of slipping. If possible, therefore, only work on slopes or hillsides
with the weather permitting.
When starting the engine, the operator should not place himself in front of the machine or work tools.
Pacemaker carriers must not come in contact with current-carrying cables of the ignition while the engine
running.
No non-participating personnel must be allowed to come within the danger area!
Never start the engine in a closed room!
Internal combustion engines must not be operated in closed rooms; unless it can be assured that the
combustion gases are actively removed from the room. The exhausts contain hidden and odourless, but
highly toxic carbon monoxide. Attention: Mortal Danger!
Attention!
For your own safety, all Bowden cables must be examined before every start-up. The area subject to wear
and tear on Bowden cables is where the cable exits the casing and around the area of the operating lever.
The function of the stop or deadman lever is also to be checked. In the case of defective Bowden or
deadman controls, the machine must not be put into operation, or all running operations must be
immediately stopped.
IRUS absolutely requires that you have your IRUS machine inspected for safety by an authorized repair shop
at least once a year.
General Description:
The basic IRUS UNITRAK machine is a multi-functional tool carrier with infinitely variable hydrostatic drive.
Each wheel is driven by a separate hydraulic motor. The oil supply of these motors is provided by a variable
pump. With this propulsion machine, various attachments can be driven. All attachments are taken up by
the quick coupler and driven by the PTO shaft.
General Description:
Engine:
The IRUS UNITRAK is available with different engines (see separately enclosed operating manual for the
engine).
During the first 20 hours of operation (running-in time), the engine should not be taken to the limit of its
capacity. Cooling is provided by an air blower. For this reason, the grid for the cooling air and the cooling
fins of the cylinder should always be kept free from dirt and intake debris. It is important to make sure that
the engine idling speed is set correctly. The engine must continue to run properly at low rpm when the
throttle lever is fully at the stop in the idle position. The setting is to be made as described in the engine
manual.
Air Filter:
The air filter has the task of intercepting the dust contained in the intake air. Cleaning must be performed
regularly; even several times a day in case of heavy dust onset (see engine instructions). When noticing a
decline in engine power, always think first of cleaning the filter.
Coupler:
A triple-plate dry coupler serves as a multi-plate coupler.
Transmissions for PTO shaft:
High-quality speed reduction gears run in an oil bath.
