How to Clean a Lift Truck

CAUTION
Your lift truck may be damaged if water or cleaning
agents come in contact with electrical components. DO
NOT directly spray any electrical components, espe-
cially connectors, switches, electro-hydraulic controls,
battery area, and dash display during the cleaning
process.
Portions of your lift truck may be washed with a non-heated
pressure washer. Steam cleaning is not recommended in
most instances, as condensation may form in electrical
components causing damage or erratic behavior. For
cleaning guidelines and components to avoid, see the Peri-
odic Maintenance section of the Service Manual for your
lift truck.
