8. Operating Hints:
a. Always center the
load on the pallet
between the forks
to provide maxi-
mum stability.
b. Drive into the pallet
as far as you can to
bring the pallet
center-of-gravity as
close to the tractor
as possible to
improve stability.
c. Move wheels/tires
to their widest
position.
d. Add ballast to the
rear of the tractor
to improve stability.
e. Keep loader arms
low when moving.
f.
Do not go under
raised forks. Keep
others away.
g. Stay away from
overhead power
lines. Electrocution
can occur without
direct contact.
h. Use only with a
tractor equipped
with a ROPS and seat belt.
i.
Do not drive across slopes. Go straight
up or down. Carry arms low.
j.
Do not carry people on forks or on frame.
k. Use only to handle, lift or move palleted
material. Do not use with loose or mov-
able loads.
