Do not operate this truck unless you have been trained and authorized to do so, and have read and understand all warnings and instructions contained in this operator’s manual.
- Page 14 Operate truck only from walking position. Do not ride on truck. Never place any part of the body into the mast structure.
- Page 15 Do not carry passengers. Keep feet clear of truck and always wear foot protection.
- Page 16 Observe applicable traffic regulations. Yield right-of-way to pedestrians. Slow down and sound horn at cross aisles and wherever vision is obstructed. Start, stop, travel, steer and brake smoothly. Slow down for turns and on uneven or slippery surfaces that could cause truck to slide or overturn.
- Page 17 Travel with lifting mechanism as low as possible. Always look in direction of travel. Keep a clear view, and when load interferes with visibility, travel with load or lifting mechanism trailing. Use special care when operating on ramps; travel slowly and do not angle or turn.
- Page 18 Do not overload truck. Check name plate for load weight capacity and load center information. When using forks, space forks as far apart as load will permit. Before lifting, be sure load is centered, forks are com- pletely under load, and load is as far back as possible against load backrest.
- Page 19 Do not handle unstable or loosely stacked loads. Use special care when handling long, high or wide loads to avoid losing the load, striking bystanders or tipping the truck. Do not handle loads which are higher than the load backrest or load backrest extension unless load is secured so that no part of it could fall backward.
- Page 20 Elevate forks or other lifting mechanism only to pick up or stack a load. Lift and lower with mast in the vertical position. Watch out for obstructions, especially overhead. Do not lift personnel on forks or work platform with this truck. It is not designed for this function and someone could get seriously injured if they fell off.
- Page 21 Do not allow anyone to stand or pass under a load or lifting mechanism. When leaving truck neutralize travel control. Fully lower lifting mechanism and set brake. When leaving truck unattended also shut off power.
