  • Page 2: Inspection Checklist

    FOR PREPARING Allmand TLB FOR DELIVERY OR RENTAL The Allmand TLB require service as well as proper operation in order to provide the perfor- mance and safety it has been designed for. Never deliver or put a machine into service with known defects or missing instructions or decals.
  • Page 3: Safety Symbols

    INTRODUCTION This manual provides information necessary for the safe operation of the Allmand TLB. The Allmand TLB standard configuration is powered by a gasoline engine connected to hydrostatic pumps that drive hydraulic motors and cylinders that move the machine. Time should be taken to understand the controls and movement of this equipment.

  • Page 7 PREVENT MACHINE RUNAWAY Avoid possible injury or death from machine runaway. Do not start engine by shorting across starter terminals. Never start engine while standing on the ground. Start engine only from operator’s seat with trans- mission in neutral and park brake engaged. AVOID INJURY FROM ROLLAWAY ACCIDENTS To prevent rollaway, always make sure machine is properly secured before leaving operator’s seat.
  • Page 8 USE HANDHOLDS AND STEPS DO NOT mount tractor from the right (drive pedal) side. Falling is a major cause of personal injury. Always face the machine and use a three-point contact when mounting or dismounting the machine. Never jump either on or off the machine. Never mount or dismount a moving machine.
  • Page 9: Handle Chemical Products Safely

    Clear all persons from area of operation and machine movement. HANDLE CHEMICAL PRODUCTS SAFELY Direct exposure to hazardous chemicals can cause serious injury. Potentially hazardous chemicals used with Allmand TLB equipment include such items as lubricants, coolants, paints and adhesives. A Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) pro-...

    ROADS FOR ANY REASON. Trailer to job sites or from one work location to another. Slow moving vehicles, such as the Allmand TLB, present a hazard that, if involved in an accident, could result in serious injury or possibly death.
  • Page 11: Wear Protective Clothing

    PROTECT AGAINST FLYING DEBRIS Wear safety glasses or goggles to protect from flying debris. WEAR PROTECTIVE CLOTHING Wear close fitting clothing and safety equipment appro- priate to the job. Operating equipment safely requires the full attention of the operator. Do not wear radio or music headphones while operating machine.
  • Page 12: Keep Riders Off Machine

    BEWARE OF EXHAUST FUMES Prevent asphyxiation. Engine exhaust fumes can cause sickness or death. If you must operate in a building, be sure there is adequate ventilation. Either use an exhaust pipe extension to remove the exhaust fumes or open doors and windows to bring in enough outside air into the area.
  • Page 13 KEEP ROPS INSTALLED PROPERLY Make certain all parts are reinstalled correctly if the roll-over protective structure (ROPS) has been loosened or removed for any reason. TORQUE ALL ½” MOUNTING BOLTS TO 37 lb./ft. CAUTION This Roll Over Protective Structure (ROPS) has been certified to industry and/or government standards.
  • Page 14: Description Of Model

    Allmand TLB GENERAL The Allmand Allmand TLB heavy-duty, compact tractor-loader-backhoe is designed for its size and maneuverability to excavate materials in areas that larger tractor-loader-backhoes can not access. The front end loader is generally used for excavating, leveling, and for back filling trenches and other types of excavations.
  • Page 15: Power Steering System

    This in turn, at any given input speed, produces a certain flow from the pump. This flow is transferred through high pressure lines to the motor. The ratio of the volume of flow from the pump to the fixed displacement of the motor will determine the speed of the motor output shaft.
  • Page 16: Gasoline Engines

    Recommended tire pressure for the rear tires is 25 psi minimum, maximum to manufacturer’s recommended pressures. BACKHOE Refer to the ALLMAND Backhoe Operators Manual for any general information. GASOLINE ENGINES Available engines include a ROBIN EH64 20.5 H.P. or a KOHLER COMMAND 25 H.P.

  • Page 21: Hydraulic Oil Requirements

    HYDRAULIC OIL REQUIREMENTS Use a high quality multipurpose fluid with an SAE 20W/ISO 68/GL - 4 rating. Use only the 920335 10 Micron Fiberglass hydraulic filter or equivalent Fiberglass filter. NOTE: The Allmand TLB has been factory filled with HYDROCLEAR 9836.
  • Page 22 HYDROSTAT DUMP VALVE OPERATION The purpose of the dump valve is to allow the movement of a disabled vehicle or if you have a vehicle that you just want to push a short distance, without starting the engine. When a hydrostatic driven vehicle is shut down it is virtually im- possible to move the vehicle without opening the hydro- static closed loop circuit.
  • Page 23: Engine Operation

    OBSERVE ENGINE OPERATION CLOSELY IMPORTANT: Become thoroughly familiar with the sound and feel of your new machine. Read and understand the Engine Instruction Manual included with your Allmand TLB . Refer to the Engine instruction manual for seasonal fuel and oil viscosity recommendations.
  • Page 24 COLD WEATHER STARTING TIPS 1. Be sure to use the proper oil for the temperature expected. 2. Set speed control at part throttle position. 3. If possible warm the battery for more starting capacity. 4. Use fresh fuel at all times. Do not use gasoline or Diesel fuel left over from summer. COLD WEATHER WARM-UP In extremely cold weather conditions, an extended warm-up period will be necessary.
  • Page 25 FOR A WARM ENGINE-Gas Engine Return choke to the “off” position as soon as the engine starts. STOPPING THE ENGINE-Gas Engine Before leaving the operator’s station: 1. Park the machine on a level surface and lower loader bucket, backhoe bucket and any other accessories to the ground.
  • Page 26: Engine Speed

    BATTERY: The Allmand TLB is shipped with a 12 volt, group 24 battery with a 675 CCA rating. Check battery electrolyte level regularly and fill as needed. Replace with the same group size and amp rating when replacement is needed.
  • Page 27 WHEELS TO PREVENT MOVEMENT. FORWARD / REVERSE PEDAL To change direction of movement on the Allmand TLB use the forward / reverse pedal, located on the right side of the tractor frame. NOTE: Reduce speed when changing directions of travel for safety.
  • Page 28: Operating Tips

    When the backhoe is not in use, the backhoe boom must be locked in the fully raised posi- tion. Curl the backhoe bucket up and retract dipperstick. When driving the Allmand TLB, carry the loader bucket low for good visibility and machine stability.
  • Page 29 Clean the bucket by hand, if at all possible. If rapping the bucket against the stops is the only option, then do so using MINIMUM force, to prevent cylinder damage. DO NOT try removing stuck material from the bucket by striking it against the ground or another object.

  • Page 34: Troubleshooting

    TROUBLESHOOTING GENERAL Proper troubleshooting begins with an organized approach to the problem at hand. Begin with investigation of the most probable cause, following the guidelines below. Study the problem thoroughly before taking action: Did warning signs precede the problem? If so, what were they? What would they indicate? Is scheduled maintenance current on all parts and systems involved? Has similar trouble occurred before? What action was taken at the time? Can the engine be operated without further damage?
