Steering; Stopping - Big Joe CB22 Operator's Manual

Steering

Moving the control handle (which con-
nects to the steering arm) right or left will
turn the truck right or left. When maneu-
vering around corners, make square
turns and be sure there is
adequate clearance.

Stopping

Stop the truck as gradually as possible.
Unnecessary rapid stopping could be
hazardous. Load could become unsta-
ble.
There are four possible ways to stop the
truck:
1. Plugging: This electrical braking
function consists of rotating the
speed control lever in the opposite

direction of travel and then releas-
ing it when the truck stops. Plug-
ging is a convenient way to stop the
truck during normal operation. If
the control is not released, the
truck will accelerate in the opposite
direction.
2. Steering arm: The brake is fully
applied by lowering or raising the
steering arm. All traction control
power is shut off when the brake is
engaged. When the steering arm is
in the upright position, the brake
acts as a parking brake. Deadman
braking occurs when the handle is
released and spring action raises
steering arm to the upright posi-
tion.
