12. LOADING OPERATIONS
•
Do not tilt the mast forward when the forks are loaded and raised.
There is danger that the load may fall and that the lift truck may tip.
•
Do not travel with the mast tilted forward.
•
Do not load and unload on slopes.
•
If the mast rail or forks catch in a load or on a shelf, slack in the lift chain
may be created, resulting in danger that the load may fall and the lift
truck tip.
•
Always be careful that there is no slack in the chain when pulling the
forks out from a pallet or shelf.
•
Do not use the lift truck for anything other than the intended use
(loading operations using the forks).
•
Do not use the forks to open or close the doors of railroad cars or
warehouses.
•
Do not push any other vehicle.
•
Do not hook ropes or cables on the forks and use the forks to lift
loads.
•
Do not use the drawbar pin for towing operations.
•
Be careful not to operate the lever by mistake. There is danger that the forks or work equipment may
cause serious injury.
•
Do not operate the levers when getting off the lift truck.
