Abstract
A power buggy is configured to be safe, stable, easy to control, and comfortable. Frequently-used controls, such as a dump control, a kill switch, and a directional control, are located at or very near handgrips of an operator's handle so as to permit the operator to control the vehicle without releasing either of the handgrips. The power buggy comprises a plurality of wheels and a movable chassis which is supported on the wheels and which has front and rear end portions. A dumpable article support is supported on the front end portion of the chassis. The power buggy also includes an axial piston hydrostatic pump assembly that has an axial piston pump which supplies power to the wheels and a second pump which charges a hydraulic system of the power buggy.
