ATTACHMENTS AND OPTIONS
CARRY
• Do not perform rapid turning, rapid acceleration, nor rapid deceleration when carrying the load. Oth-
erwise, the load may fall or the machine may become inclined.
• Tilting angle of the fork varies depending on the load. If the load is stacked higher than the height of
the carriage back, it may slip and fall backward.
• Keep the load at the height near the ground usually when
carrying the load. Perform the steering operation with care
if it is unavoidable to lift the load high.
• Use the 1st or 2nd in the speed range when carrying the
load. Use the 3rd or 4th in the speed range when traveling
without load.
• The appropriate speed for carrying the load varies depend-
ing on the conditions. Think safety first always when driv-
ing the machine. Drive the machine at low speed when
carrying the load on the rough ground or slopes.
• Tilt the load to the mountain side when carrying the load
on the slopes.
• Drive the machine in reverse when the load interrupts the front view.
HOW TO STACK
1.
Lift the load to the point approximately 15 cm higher than
the position for the load to be stacked.
2.
Drive the machine forward slowly toward the position for
the load to be stacked, and set the fork horizontally.
3.
Put down the load.
