Welding; Washing The Lift Truck - Manitou MT 1440 E3 Operator's Manual

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 heat would increase the pressure which could
cause the tyre to explode.
- If the lift truck is equipped with an electronic control unit, disconnect this before starting to weld, to avoid the risk of causing
irreparable damage to electronic components.

WASHING THE LIFT TRUCK

- Clean the lift truck or at least the area concerned before any intervention.
- Remember to close and lock all accesses to the lift truck (doors, windows, cowls...).
- During washing, avoid the articulations and electrical components and connections.
- If necessary, protect against penetration of water, steam or cleaning agents, components susceptible of being damaged,
particularly electrical components and connections and the injection pump.
- Clean the lift truck of any fuel, oil or grease trace.
FOR ANY INTERVENTION OTHER THAN REGULAR MAINTENANCE, CONSULT YOUR DEALER.
