WARNING
• Ascend or descend grades slowly, and with caution.
• When ascending or descending grades, loaded lift trucks shall be
driven with the load upgrade.
• Unloaded lift trucks should be operated on all grades with the
load-engaging means downgrade.
• On all grades the load and load-engaging means shall be tilted
back, if applicable, and raised only as far as necessary to clear
the road surface.
• Avoid turning, if possible, and use extreme caution on grades,
ramps, or inclines; normally travel straight up and down.
!
• Under all travel conditions, operate the lift truck at a speed
that will permit it to be brought to a stop in a safe manner.
• Travel with load-engaging means or load at lowered height
except during stacking operation.
• Make starts, stops, turns, or direction reversals in a smooth
manner so as not to cause unsafe conditions.
• Do not indulge in stunt driving or horseplay.
• Slow down for wet and slippery floors.
