Follow appropriate procedures to prevent
sudden changes in forklift speed that could
result in death or serious injury.
• Slow the forklift to the appropriate speed before de-
scending a slope and before loading or unloading a
trailer.
• DO NOT change directions (F/R) of the travel select le-
ver while the forklift is moving.
• DO NOT coast downhill. Keep the transmission in the
appropriate gear.

Check warning indicators and gauges on
the display frequently during operation. If a
warning indicator is illuminated or a gauge
shows abnormal readings, stop the forklift,
follow proper shut down procedures, tag the
forklift with "Do Not Operate" tags, and have a qualified me-
chanic service or repair the forklift BEFORE placing it into

Caution

Load Safety

Failure to follow proper safety procedures
when lifting, lowering, and traveling with a
load could result in death, serious injury, or
property damage.
DO NOT exceed forklift capacity of 5,900 pounds (2,676 ki-
lograms). The total rated capacity of the forks being used
must equal or exceed forklift capacity. Forks can bend or
break causing loss of load and possible death or serious in-
jury.
DO NOT exceed the manufacturer's rated load
for any auxiliary attachment. Any attempt to
lift or carry loads in excess of the manufactur-
er's rated load may cause forklift tip over, loss
of load, or structural damage, which could
result in death or serious injury.
Failure to keep personnel clear of the load
area while the load is being raised or lowered
could result in death or serious injury. DO
NOT lift, swing, or move a load over anyone.
• Review the rated load capacity of each auxiliary
attachment before performing any operation.
• Use the correct load chart and NEVER exceed specified
weights and load centers.
• DO NOT exceed the manufacturer's recommended load
capacity.
• DO NOT operate the forklift with an unsafe load
distribution.
• Adjust the load as necessary, especially for nonstan-
dard loads.
• Use caution when handling loose material that can fall
into the cab.
• Remove overhanging load materials, when possible,
and watch for sliding material.
• DO NOT reach a load over posts or other objects that
can enter the cab, if tipped.
• Avoid sudden stops, starts, or turns.
• Avoid carrying a swinging load from the boom lift
point. If necessary, secure the load by attaching it to
the forklift tie-downs and/or have another person as-
sist with safely steadying the load.
