LOADING OPERATIONS
Never put your hands or feet into the mast structure. There is danger
that you will get caught in moving parts and be seriously injured.
Do not use the mast, load backrest or dashboard as a ladder or step. If you
slip, there is danger that you will fall.
Make sure that the center of gravity of the load is in line with the center of the lift truck. Do not carry loads
off-center. There is danger that unbalanced loads may cause the lift truck to tip.
Place the load so that it contacts the load backrest.
Do not handle unstable loads. If there is danger that the load may fall
off, secure it in position and take steps to prevent the load from
collapsing or falling.
When carrying stacked loads, tie with rope or otherwise secure it to
prevent the load from falling.
Always operate the mast and forks from the operator's compartment.
Do not stand beside the lift truck and operate the levers, or operate the levers through the mast.
