Safety
Attachments
Improper connection of an auxiliary attachment could re-
sult in death or serious injury. Attachments not locked into
place can become unstable and fall on the operator or other
personnel near the forklift.
•
Make sure attachment locking devices are always in
place.
•
Hydraulic attachments have a maximum hydraulic
pressure rating.
The maximum pressure of each
auxiliary circuit can be set on the proportional valve
from 725 psi to the maximum system pressure of 3,500
psi (the factory setting is 3,200 psi). Exceeding the
pressure rating of the attachment by failing to adjust
the auxiliary pressure setting, or provide external
pressure control, could result in death or serious injury.
•
Make sure all hydraulic connections are tight (if
equipped).
Shut Down Procedure
To prevent death or serious injury, follow these procedures
before leaving the forklift cab:
•
Park forklift on a firm, level surface.
•
Move travel select lever to NEUTRAL (N).
•
Set parking brake to ON (engaged).
•
Either lower forks and attachments to the ground, or
leave boom raised and retracted.
death, serious injury, or property damage.
•
Turn Ignition switch to the OFF position.
•
Remove the key.
•
Unbuckle the seat belt.
•
Place "Do Not Operate" tags on the Starter switch and
steering wheel when maintenance or service is required.
•

Forklift Maintenance
Follow
the
manufacturer's
maintenance to make sure the forklift continues to meet
manufacturer's specifications. Failure to properly maintain
the forklift can result in improper performance, which could
cause death, serious injury, or property damage.
Attach "Do Not Operate" tags to the Ignition
switch and steering wheel before beginning
any service or maintenance.
•
"Do Not Operate" tags indicate the forklift should not be
operated until all service or maintenance is completed.
•
Keep two (2) legible "Do Not Operate" tags with the
forklift at all times. "Do Not Operate" tags are provided
in this manual.
•
DO NOT operate the forklift and attachments if they re-
quire repairs.
•
Make sure basic maintenance is completed and service
problems are corrected.
•
Death or serious injury can result from operating a fork-
lift before all repairs have been made and all proper
maintenance is completed.
