TABLE OF CONTENTS INSTRUCTIONS TO THE COMPANY MANAGER 1 - 4 THE SITE 1 - 4 THE OPERATOR 1 - 4 THE LIFT TRUCK 1 - 4 A - THE LIFT TRUCK’S SUITABILITY FOR THE JOB 1 - 4 B - ADAPTATION OF THE LIFT TRUCK TO STANDARD ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS 1 - 4 C - MODIFICATION OF THE LIFT TRUCK 1 - 5...
A - THE TRUCK’S SUITABILITY FOR THE JOB - MANITOU has ensured that this lift truck is suitable for use under the standard operating conditions defined in this operator’s manual, with a STATIC test coefficient OF 1.33 and a DYNAMIC test coefficient OF 1, as specified in harmonized norm EN 1459 for variable range trucks.
C - MODIFICATION OF THE LIFT TRUCK - For your safety and that of others, you must not change the structure and settings of the various components used in your lift truck (hydraulic pressure, calibrating limiters, I.C. engine speed, addition of extra equipment, addition of counterweight, unapproved attachments, alarm systems, etc.) yourself.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE OPERATOR PREAMBLE WHENEVER YOU SEE THIS SYMBOL IT MEANS: WARNING ! BE CAREFUL ! YOUR SAFETY OR THE SAFETY OF THE LIFT TRUCK IS AT RISK. The risk of accident while using, servicing or repairing your lift truck can be restricted if you follow the safety instructions and safety measures detailed in these instruction.
• Right-hand column - With a PLATFORM-fitted lift truck, people can only be lifted using platforms designed by MANITOU for the purpose. - MANITOU sells equipment specifically designed for lifting people (OPTION PLATFORM lift truck, contact your dealer).
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS UNLADEN AND LADEN A - BEFORE STARTING THE LIFT TRUCK - Carry out daily maintenance (see: 3 - MAINTENANCE: A - DAILY OR EVERY 10 HOURS SERVICE). - Make sure the lights, indicators and windscreen wipers are working properly. - Make sure the rear view mirrors are in good condition, clean and properly adjusted.
C - ENVIRONMENT - Comply with site safety regulations. - If you have to use the lift truck in a dark area or at night, make sure it is equipped with working lights. - During handling operations, make sure that no one is in the way of the lift truck and its load. - Do not allow anybody to come near the working area of the lift truck or pass beneath an elevated load.
E - STARTING THE LIFT TRUCK SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS The lift truck must only be started up or maneuvered when the operator is sitting in the driver’s cab, with his seat belt adjusted and fastened. - Never try to start the lift truck by pushing or towing it. Such operation may cause severe damage to the transmission. If necessary, to tow the lift truck in an emergency, the transmission must be placed in the neutral position (see: 3 - MAINTENANCE: G - OCCASIONAL MAINTENANCE).
- Use the rear-view mirrors frequently. - Drive round obstacles. - Never drive on the edge of a ditch or steep slope. - It is dangerous to use two lift trucks simultaneously to handle heavy or voluminous loads, since this operation requires particular precautions to be taken.
H - DRIVING THE LIFT TRUCK ON THE PUBLIC HIGHWAY (or see current legislation in other countries) SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS - Operators driving on the public highway must comply with current highway code legislation. - The lift truck must comply with current road legislation. If necessary, there are optional solutions. Contact your dealer. INSTRUCTIONS - Make sure the revolving light is in place, switch it on and verify its operation.
Page 17
DRIVING THE LIFT TRUCK WITH A FRONT-MOUNTED ATTACHMENT - You must comply with current regulations in your country, covering the possibility of driving on the public highway with a front- mounted attachment on your lift truck. - If road legislation in your country authorizes circulation with a front-mounted attachment, you must at least: •...
A - CHOICE OF ATTACHMENTS - Only attachments approved by MANITOU can be used on its lift trucks. - Make sure the attachment is appropriate for the work to be done (see: 4 - ADAPTABLE ATTACHMENTS IN OPTION ON THE RANGE).
D - TRANSVERSE ATTITUDE OF THE LIFT TRUCK Depending on the model of lift truck The transverse attitude is the transverse slope of the chassis with respect to the horizontal. Raising the jib reduces the lift truck’s lateral stability. The transverse attitude must be set with the jib in down position as follows: 1 - LIFT TRUCK WITHOUT SLOPE CORRECTOR USED ON TYRES - Position the lift truck so that the bubble in the level is between the two lines (see: 2 -...
F - TAKING UP AND LAYING A HIGH LOAD ON TYRES You must not raise the jib if you have not checked the transverse attitude of the lift truck (see: INSTRUCTIONS FOR HANDLING A LOAD: D - TRANSVERSE ATTITUDE OF THE LIFT TRUCK). REMINDER: Make sure that the following operations can be performed with good visibility (see: OPERATIONS INSTRUCTIONS UNLADEN AND LADEN: D - VISIBILITY).
Page 21
LAYING A HIGH LOAD ON TYRES - Approach the load in the transport position in front of the pile (fig. F6). - Put the handbrake on and set the forward/reverse selector to neutral. - Lift and extend the jib (1) (2) until the load is above the pile, while keeping an eye on the longitudinal stability limiter and warning device (see: INSTRUCTIONS FOR HANDLING A LOAD: C - LONGITUDINAL STABILITY LIMITER AND WARNING DEVICE).
G - TAKING UP AND LAYING A HIGH LOAD ON STABILIZERS Depending on the model of lift truck You must not raise the jib if you have not checked the transverse attitude of the lift truck (see: INSTRUCTIONS FOR HANDLING A LOAD: D - TRANSVERSE ATTITUDE OF THE LIFT TRUCK).
Page 23
TAKING UP A HIGH LOAD ON STABILIZERS - Make sure the forks will fit easily under the load. - Check the position of the lift truck with respect to the load and make a test run, if necessary, without taking the load. - Raise and extend the jib (1) (2) until the forks are at the level of the load (fig.
H - TAKING UP AND LAYING DOWN A SUSPENDED LOAD WARNING: Failure to follow the above instructions may lead the lift truck to loose stability and overturn. MUST be used with a lift truck equipped with an operational hydraulic movement cut-out device. CONDITIONS OF USE - The length of the sling or the chain shall be as short as possible to limit swinging of the load.
B - SUITABILITY OF THE TRUCK FOR USE - MANITOU has ensured that this lift truck is suitable for use under the standard operating conditions defined in this operator’s manual, with a STATIC test coefficient of 1.25 and a DYNAMIC test coefficient of 1.1, as specified in harmonised standard EN 280 for “mobile elevating work platforms”.
Operation of the platform is strictly forbidden in the event of wind speeds of over 45 km/h. - The following scale is given for an empiric evaluation of the wind speed: BEAUFORT scale (wind speed at a height of 10 m from flat ground) Speed Speed Speed...
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING THE RADIO-CONTROL For lift trucks with RC radio control HOW TO USE THE RADIO-CONTROL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS - This radio-control consists of electronic and mechanical safety elements. It cannot receive commands from another transmitter because the internal encoding is unique to each radio-control. If it is used improperly or incorrectly, there is a risk of danger to: - The physical and mental health of the user or others.
MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS OF THE LIFT TRUCK GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS - Ensure the area is sufficiently ventilated before starting the lift truck. - Wear clothes suitable for the maintenance of the lift truck, avoid wearing jewellery and loose clothes. Tie and protect your hair, if necessary.
WELDING - Disconnect the battery before any welding operations on the lift truck. - When carrying out electric welding work on the lift truck, connect the negative cable from the equipment directly to the part being welded, so as to avoid high tension current passing through the alternator. - Never carry out welding or work which gives off heat on an assembled tyre.
The following recommendations are intended to prevent the lift truck from being damaged when it is withdrawn from service for an extended period. For these operations, we recommend the use of a MANITOU protective product, reference 603726. Instructions for using the product are given on the packaging.
BRINGING THE LIFT TRUCK BACK INTO SERVICE - Remove the waterproof adhesive tape from all the holes. - Refit the intake hose. - Refit and reconnect the battery. - Remove the protection from the cylinder rods. - Perform the daily service (see: 3 - MAINTENANCE: A - DAILY OR EVERY 10 HOURS SERVICE). - Put the handbrake on and remove the axle stands.
