CAUTION
inspect the surface over which you will travel.
Look for holes, drop-offs and obstacles. Look for rough

DANGER
Engine fuel exhaust gases contain poisonous carbon
monoxide. This gas is colorless and odorless, and can
cause death if inhaled.
The engine of this equipment requires an adequate free
fl ow of cooling air. NEVER operate this equipment in any
enclosed or narrow area
where free fl ow of the air is
restricted. If the air fl ow is
restricted it will cause injury
to people and property and
serious damage to the
equipment or engine.
NEVER operate the equipment in an explosive
atmosphere or near combustible materials. An
explosion or fi re could result causing severe
bodily harm or even death.
WARNING
NEVER use your hand to fi nd hydraulic leaks.
Use a piece of wood or cardboard. Hydraulic
fl uid injected into the skin must be treated by
a knowledgeable physician immediately or
severe injury or death can occur.
Accidental starting can cause severe injury
or death. ALWAYS place the ON/OFF
switch in the OFF position.

DO NOT operate the power buggy at excessive speeds.
Reckless operation may cause accidents and severe
injury. Slow down when approaching people, wet areas,
and going up and down grades. It is the responsibility of
the operator to adjust speed, as necessary, depending
on the conditions of the road or path.
ALLOW extra time to stop when operating the power
buggy on wet surfaces or loosely graded materials.
DO NOT dump materials that are large and chunky.
These types of materials may shift causing the power
buggy to tip and throw the operator off the machine. The
power buggy is intended for dumping free-fl owing and
loose materials such as dry soil, slag, and wet concrete.
DO NOT dump materials from bucket while the power
buggy is moving.
For walk-behind operation, the operator platform must be
stowed and locked in the up position. The speed should
also be reduced to 3 mph (4.8 kph) or slower.
NOTICE
ALWAYS ensure power buggy is securely placed on
appropriate blocks or jack stands when performing
maintenance requires elevation of the buggy.
ALWAYS make sure the power buggy’s parking brake is
working properly. NEVER operate the power buggy with
a defective braking system.
Ensure brakes are applied when leaving or when using
on a slope.
When parking on a slope, position the power buggy at
a right angle to a slope. Ensure that the parking brake
is engaged and holds the power buggy safely in place
when parking on a slope.

ALWAYS inspect the rubber track before each use. Be
sure to check the tension and maintain the prescribed
(regulated) tension.
ALWAYS drive slowly in areas where the road surface is
unstable such as forests, some construction sites, and/or
unpaved roads. High speed in these areas can result in
breakage of the rubber track.
Remove any foreign objects such as tree branches, leaves,
etc. caught between the frame and the rubber track, after
each operation.
lf foreign objects are not removed between the frame and
the rubber track, the gap between the rubber track and
the frame will shorten, and this can make the rubber track
more susceptible to cracks and wear.
Regularly inspect the condition of the sprocket, track
roller, idler, and the imbedded metal guide for abrasion.
Excessive or unusual abrasion or scarring can shorten
the life span of the rubber track.
Enlarge the turning radius when turning and changing
directions, in areas of high friction, such as asphalt, to
avoid premature breakage of the rubber track.
In cases where the job site location is far away, transport
the machine on a fl atbed truck or similar towing vehicle.
Continuous operation over long distances for an extended
period of time is not recommended.
Driving the rubber track through narrow passages on job
sites can fold the edges of the rubber track. Excessive
bending of the track can Iead to breakage.

ensure that it is done on even ground and equipment has
been turned off.

1. Sound Pressure and Power Levels are “A” weighted measures per ISO 226:2003 (ANSI S1.4-1981). They are measured with the operating
conditions of the machine which generate the most repeatable but highest values of the sound levels. Under normal circumstances, the sound
level will vary depending on the condition of the material being worked upon.
2. The vibration level indicated is the vector sum of the RMS (Root Mean Square) values of amplitudes on each axis, standardized to an 8-hour

GENERAL INFORMATION
The MQ Whiteman Track Power Buggy, WTB-16 is intended
for the transportation of concrete, concrete spreading and
spot pouring. In addition, this power buggy is designed for
landscaping applications, material sub-base distribution,
job site cleanup and material transport.
The Power Buggy is equipped with a 10-inch dump height
which provides clearance and enables the operator to
maneuver over any form height. In addition, it has a unique
polyethylene tub design that reduces concrete splatter.
A low center of gravity has been incorporated into the
design which provides added safety when maneuvering the
buggy in tight areas. A 5.0-gallon (20-liter) fuel tank allows
for extended uninterrupted use. The maximum speed of the
power buggy is rated at 5.1 mph (8.2 km/h).
This buggy employs 16-inch-wide rubber tracks to traverse
the terrain. The tracks allow the buggy to travel over soft
ground such as sand and wet surfaces. The rubber track
design increases the overall traction of the buggy.
Hand and foot controls are provided for ease of dumping
and stopping of the power buggy. Multiple lift points have
been provided to allow for easy access of a forklift when
lifting is required.
The WTB-16 model is powered by a Honda GX690
air-cooled, gasoline engine rated at 22 hp at 3,600 rpm.
The operator controls the forward and reverse machine
travel by manually shifting the control levers which directs
the hydraulic fluid flow to the drive motors. The fluid flow
to the dump cylinder is controlled by a manually operated
control valve.
This hydraulic system incorporates a closed loop
configuration operating at a maximum of 4,300 psi (300 bar).
The hydraulic oil is filtered by a screen-type filter located in
the hydraulic tank, then double-filtered within the system
by a 10-micron cartridge spin-on return filter.
WARNING
All operators must have training before operating the
power buggy. For your safety, warnings are on the
machine and in this manual. Failure to obey these
warnings can cause severe injury or even death.
CAUTION
DO NOT attempt to operate the power
buggy until the Safety Information, General
Information, and Inspection sections of this
manual have been read and thoroughly
understood.
The engine drives a variable displacement hydrostatic axial
piston pump.
