Section 4 - Operation
Transporting a Load
After engaging the load and resting it against the backrest, tilt the load back to
position it for travel. Travel in accordance with the requirements set forth in Section
1 - General Safety Practices and Section 5 - Attachments.
Leveling Procedure
1. Position machine in best location to lift or place load.
2. Apply parking brake and move transmission control lever to NEUTRAL.
3. Move boom/attachment to 4 ft (1,2 m) off ground.
(AUS - Move boom so forks are no more than 11.8 in (300 mm) above ground
surface.)
4. Observe level indicator to determine whether machine must be leveled prior to
lifting load. Level machine with frame level joystick (see page 3-9 or page 3-11)
or if equipped, outrigger joysticks (see page 3-10).
Important things to remember:
• Never raise the boom/attachment more than 4 ft (1,2 m) above ground unless
telehandler is level.
(AUS - Never raise the forks more than 11.8 in (300 mm) above ground surface
unless telehandler is level.)
• The combination of frame leveling and load could cause the telehandler to tip
over.
The telehandler is designed to permit leveling the main frame 8° to left or right to
compensate for uneven ground conditions.
