NOTE TO OPERATORS AND SUPERVISORS
This manual explains the proper operation and maintenance of Toyota industrial vehicles as well as

industrial vehicles because it contains information which is exclusive to this series of vehicles. The
manual has been produced based on a standard vehicle. However, if you have questions on other
types, please contact your Toyota industrial vehicle dealer (Toyota dealer).
Toyota reserves the right to make any changes or modifications of specifications in this manual with-
out giving previous notice and without incurring any obligation.

BEFORE INITIAL OPERATION
• Please read this manual thoroughly. This
will give you a complete understanding of
Toyota industrial vehicles and permit you to
operate them correctly and safely.
Proper handling of new vehicles promotes
performance and extends service life. Drive
with special caution while becoming famil-
iar with a new vehicle.
In addition to the standard operating proce-
dures, pay attention to the following safety
items.
• Please acquire thorough knowledge on
Toyota industrial vehicle. Read the opera-
tor's manual thoroughly prior to operating
the vehicle. Get to know its operation and
components. Learn about the safety devices
and accessory equipment and their limits and
precautions.
Be sure to read the caution plate attached to
the vehicle.
• Please learn safe driving points and safety
management. Understand and maintain
working area traffic rules.
Ask the work area supervisor about any spe-
cial working precautions.
• Wear neat clothing for operation.
Improper clothing for vehicle operation may
interfere smooth operation and cause an
unexpected accident. Always wear proper
clothing for easy operation.
• Please keep away from live electric power
lines. Know the locations of inside and out-
side power lines and maintain sufficient dis-
tance.
• Be sure to perform pre-operation check
and periodic maintenance. This will pre-
vent sudden malfunctions, improve work
efficiency, save money and insure safe work-
ing conditions.
• Use only the recommended types of fuel
and lubricants. Low-grade fuel and lubri-
cants will shorten service life.
• Always warm up the engine before start-
ing operation.
• If you hear any unusual noise or sense
anything unusual, inspect and repair
immediately.
• If the engine stops during traveling, the
operation will be affected. Stop the vehicle
in a safe place as described below. Operate
the steering control lever more firmly than
usual.
• When towing the vehicle. If a vehicle is no
longer able to operate due to a breakdown,
etc. and needs to be towed, the parking brake
must be disengaged. Please ask a Toyota
dealer for towing a broken down vehicle.
• Never attempt traveling when the bucket
are elevated with a load beyond the speci-
fied height. Traveling with a load on the
bucket elevated beyond the specified height
may cause overturning due to the upward of
gravity. Keep the bucket height at 15-20cm
(6-8in) above the ground when traveling.
• Flammable and/or combustible materials
can be damaged and in some cases ignited
by a hot exhaust system or hot exhaust
gases. To minimize the possibility for such
damage or fire, the operator must obey
the following recommended practices:
• Do not operate the vehicle over or near flam-
mable and/or combustible materials, includ-
ing dried grass and paper scraps.
• Park the vehicle with rear end at least 30cm
(12in) away from lumber, veneer board,
paper products and other similar materials to
avoid discoloration, deformation or combus-
tion of those materials.
• Vertical arm (30-5SDK10, 11) The bucket
raises and lowers almost vertically. Since the
lift arm moves toward the rear of the vehicle
during material handling, particular attention
should be paid to the rear of the vehicle dur-
ing this operation.
