  • Page 3 1.0 Before the first lift... The Logiflex with Rotator is manufactured in accordance with safety directives. Among the subjects dealt with in this Instruction Manual are: - Proper application - Physical limitations of the product - Risks with improper use - Therefore please read this Instruction Manual carefully!

  • Page 5 Box holder The rotator can be equipped with one or two sets of box holders, adjusted for different box sizes. When loosening the screw (A), the box holder can be moved between the two different positions. NOTE! The screw has to be tightened, before using the product. Setting of distance between box holders Fork span 560 mm: Fits the box widths 800 or 1000 mm.
  • Page 6 3.0 How to operate the Logiflex 3.1 Pallet handling The Logiflex with Rotator functions as an ordinary stacker, when the forks are placed in horizontal position. For proper operation, stand behind the handle. Push/pull - raise/lower ELFS WHEN HANDLING CLOSED PALLETS ..
  • Page 7 3.2 Use of the Rotator Condition: The upper edge of the forks is lifted between 250 and 900 mm. The load can be rotated 360º with one adjustable stop in every side. Note! To continue the tilt function from the horizontal position, the tilt switch has to be released and activated in the requested tilt direction.
  • Page 8: Setting The Speed

    3.3 Adjusting of stop The forks are factory-set to stop in 45º. If another setting is required, the Rotator can be set elec-tronically to stop in different angles. 1) The forks are placed in horizontal position. 2) Short pressure on the switch A activates the setting procedure.
  • Page 9: Optimum Safety

    4.0 Optimum safety 4.1 Avoid overloads The maximum load must not be exceeded. Remember, that the Logiflex is designed for evenly distributed load, - goods on pallets etc. If the forks are point-loaded on one side, there is a risk of bending. NOTE! When driving with the truck, the forks should be placed in horizontal position.
  • Page 10 4.2 Avoid offset loads The load must be evenly distributed. The maximum centre of gravity distance from the front of the fork mast (given on the truck) must not be exceeded. A greater distance reduces the level of safety and increases the risk of toppling. Goods on pallets, etc.
  • Page 11 Special version The top stop can be set to other intervals than between 250-900 mm. The height of the top stop depends on the width of the stacker, as a wide stacker can manage a larger sideways movement. E.g. On a stacker with 850 mm straddle legs, the stop can be placed at a maximum fork height of 1880 mm.
  • Page 12: Safety Regulations

    ATTENTION Moving parts Safety regulations • N ever walk under a raised load! • B efore lowering the forks, make certain that no foreign elements can hinder the free lowering of the forks • LogIFLEx is designed for use on an even and level floor • D uring transport the forks shall be raised as little as possible • T ransport with raised forks should be made over the shortest possible distances and at low speed • C heck that the chains lift equally. They shall be equally tight when the forks are loaded • Chains and chain bolts must not be damaged. Chains that have become permanently stretched (max. 2 % of original length) must be scrapped.
  • Page 13 4.4 Driving loaded The Logiflex is designed for use on even and level floor. During transport the forks shall be raised as little as possible. Transport with raised forks should be made over the shortest possible distances and at low speed. 4.5 Rotation with load The load centre is not allowed to be placed on the outside of the legs of the stacker, as this will cause a risk of turning over.
  • Page 14 4.6 Emergency braking and Emergency stop   If it becomes necessary to use the load as a brake to prevent the LogIFLEx from running away, activate the DOWN button quickly, until the load reaches the ground. The product has an emergency stop. When activating the emergency stop, the main current supply is switched off. The movement of the forks stops immediately when activating the emergency stop.
  • Page 15: Battery Specifications

    5.0 There must be a current supply 5.1 Battery specifications The manufacturer offers 3 different battery types recommended for the electric Logiflex Semi-trak Semi-trak Tubular cell 986034 986036 986014 Voltage Capacity 60Ah/5h 105Ah/5h 100Ah/5h Recommended for Normal use Severe daily use Life in cycles at Approx. 300 Approx. 1200...
  • Page 16: Checking The Battery

    5.2 Warnings and information on battery The charging of tubular cell and semi-trak batteries gives off gases that can be explosive: - Use of naked flames near the batteries should be avoided - Charging should therefore be performed in a ventilated room - The battery cover has to be open to ensure a good ventilation of the battery.
  • Page 17: Battery Charging

    5.4 Battery charging If instructions accompany the battery, these are to be followed. Charging must be performed with a charger, suitable for the battery type and correctly set with the charging voltage for the battery type, see point 2.1. For connection and operation, see instructions accompanying the charger.
  • Page 18: Wiring Connections

    5.6 Wiring connections Many operational disturbances are caused by bad connections in the electrical circuit. Make sure that the connections are in order. Check connections regularly for damage at insulating caps or bad connections at plugs, etc. Verdigris must be removed from cable plugs. Keep all screw/nut connections tight.
  • Page 19: Oil Change

    6.0 Long live the Logiflex Regular inspection and the replacement of worn or defective parts in good time will pro- long the life of the Logiflex. “Prevention is better than repair”, therefore ensure: - Correct usage - Regular cleaning - Periodic safety and service inspection 6.1 Lubrication and hydraulic oil Under normal operation conditions the Logiflex requires no lubrication.
  • Page 20: Fork Adjustment

    6.3 Fork adjustment Two of the rollers on the fork bracket are mounted on eccentric pins, so that they can be adjusted. The adjustable rollers are at the top. 1. Loosen screw (pos. 91) (key width 5 mm). 2. Eccentric pins (pos. 56) (key width 8 mm) can now be turned to give the necessary fork adjustment.
  • Page 21 6.5 Adjustment of steering wheel chains - Set the handle in its middle position. - Adjust the nuts (1, 2, 3 and 4) and bring the wheels into parallel. 6.6 The hydraulic pump and the gear motor The hydraulic pump has a S3 “periodic intermittent duty” of 10%. This means that the pump in total is allowed to operate 1 minute for a period of 10 minutes.
  • Page 22 6.8 Adjustment of side play (In the mast rolls of the right side of the fork bracket) 1. Screw (A) is loosened counter-clockwise, until resistance disappears. 2. Turn the screw clockwise, until resistance appears. The follo wing 1.5 to 2.5 turns of the screw will be a tightening of the spring (C). 3.

    6.9 Lifting procedure When lifting the product, please use the fixing point in the top profile or a lifting line. PLEASE NOTE: Products with top cover are only allowed to be lifted with lifting strap.
  • Page 24: Tensioning The Chains

    7.0 Adjusting the Rotator 7.1 Tensioning the chains When the unloaded forks can be tilted manually approx. 5 cm, the chains should be tensioned. This is done by: 1) Removing the cover from the tilt unit. 2) Loosening the gear motor (A1) 3) Loosening chain wheel (B1) 4) Turning the nut (B2), so that the fork chain is tensioned, until the slack is about 5 mm.
  • Page 25 7.2 Adjusting the switch The location of the forks is decided by two inductive switches. A) Inductive switch on thrust ring Indicates when the forks are in horizontal position. When the forks are in horizontal position, the inductive switch has to be placed right above the plate on the thrust ring in a distance of 2-4 mm.
