Caution Plates - Toyota 7FG35 Operator's Manual

Caution
• If a load should be moved up while tilting
the fork forward at a low lift, there is a fear
that the vehicle may tipover when the fork
stops at the position having a tilt angle be-
yond the specified angle range. Never handle
any load, therefore, while tilting the mast,
with the load moved up.
• With a high load at a high lift, never match
the load (mast angle) by controlling the mast
forward tilting angle, since it involves the fear
that the vehicle may tip over.
• Even with a load positioned within the al-
lowable angle range, never tilt the mast be-
yond its vertical position, or the vehicle may
tipover, losing its stability forward and back-
ward. Never tilt the mast forward, with a load
moved up.
• Some specialty models onto which a heavy
attachment is mounted may not be equipped
with the mast forward tilt control. Confirm a
Toyota dealer in advance.
• Once you have mounted or replaced any
attachment on a fork lift model, ask a Toyota
dealer for an inspection.
• If you use two or more removable attach-
ments alternately, the heaviest one should be
used to carry out matching (SAS setting). Ask
a Toyota dealer for help in advance.
Note: With the fork positioned at the top dead
end, a high pressure (relief pressure) may re-
main in the lift cylinder. This high pressure
causes the vehicle to judge that it has a high load
even unless loaded. As a result, the mast will be
hindered from tilting forward. In this case, move
the fork a little downward from the top dead end
(to release the pressure) and the mast may be
tilted forward.

Active mast rear tilt speed control
• At a high lift, the mast has a backward tilt
speed controlled (slowed down) irrespective of
a load. If the high lift is changed over to the low
lift while tilting the mast backward, the control-
led speed will last.
• At a low lift, the mast can be tilted at the full
speed irrespective of a load. If the mast is tilted
backward at a low lift with the tilt knob switch
pressed, the mast has a backward tilt speed con-
trolled (slowed down) as long as the tilt lever
knob switch is pressed.
• If the low lift is changed over to the high lift
while tilting the mast backward, the controlled
speed will last as long as the tilt lever knob
switch is pressed. And the mast may be tilted
backward at the full speed so long as the tilt le-
ver knob switch is not pressed.
Key-lift interlock
With the engine killed (the ignition switch posi-
tioned at OFF), the fork will not move down
even if the lift lever is so operated.
Active steering synchronizer
If the steering wheel knob is not angularly
matched with tires, such an out-of-position will
be automatically corrected while turning the
steering wheel. Thus, the knob is kept at a con-
stant position relative to tires.
If SAS feature should fail:
An SAS model is controlled with a controller, a
sensor and various actuators. If any of them is
found not to be operating normally, it tells you
that:
• Steering wheel knob out-of-position may not
be corrected.
• Such features as automatic fork leveling con-
trol, active mast front tilt angle control and ac-
tive mast rear tilt speed control.
• Swing lock may not be unlocked.
If any of the phenomena referred to above should
take place,
• SAS warning lamp will blink.
• Error code will be displayed in hour meter.
Thus, the operator will be informed. In such
event, move the vehicle to a safe location and
ask a Toyota dealer for a repair.

CAUTION PLATES

Caution plates are attached on a vehicle. Before driving it, please be sure to read them thoroughly.
(The sample shows those of an English version.)
Action to be taken in emergency
If the mast (load-handling unit) should fail to
operate, remove the SAS-ECU fuse inside the
fuse box and you will be able to move the vehi-
cle by operating it similarly to a non-SAS model.
Move the vehicle to a safe location and ask a
Toyota dealer for a repair.
If any phenomenon different from normal op-
erations (failure to run or the like), among oth-
ers, should take place, ask a Toyota dealer for
an inspection.
Note: Once a torque converter model has had
its control lever abnormal, it is impossible to
manually operate the vehicle, which need be
towed, accordingly.
