IV. Daily safety checks
1. Leakage check: Electrolyte, hydraulic oil,
cooling liquid and hydraulic transmission oil
Warning
Do not drive the truck if a fuel leak is found;
start the engine only after eliminating the
leakage.
Check whether there are any fuel leaks or
water leaks in the engine, hydraulic pipe
connectors, water tank and drive system by
hand and visual inspection. Do not use naked
flames.
2. Visual inspection
Check whether lights and instruments work
normally.
Check tires, air pressure and ensure bolts are
tight.
Check whether the tires are damaged and
whether tire pressures are normal.
3. Fuel quantity check
The fuel gauge is installed on the instrument
panel to check the fuel level everyday before
work. Fill up the fuel tank every day after work.
The fuel filler is on the left leg of the overhead
guard.
4. Engine fuel level check
Caution
·The forklift truck must be placed on a flat
surface to conduct the oil level check.
· When the engine is cool, the fuel level can
be checked accurately.
Pull out the oil dipstick, wipe the scale head,
reinsert it and pull it out and check whether
54
the level is between the two scale marks.
5. Engine coolant quantity check
Observe the coolant level in the additional
water tank when the engine is cool. If it is
lower than "MIN", it should be supplemented
to "MAX". If there is no coolant in the
additional water tank, the coolant quantity in
the main water tank should be checked. If the
coolant quantity in the main water tank is
insufficient, coolant with a freezing point of
-36.5℃ should be added to the water tank lid;
the coolant should be supplemented to the
"MAX" level of the additional water tank.
Caution
The water added to the water tank should
be clean tap water. If antifreeze is used, the
same antifreeze should be added.
Pay special attention to the water tank and
cooling system in hot seasons.
Caution
· Do not open the water tank lid when the
engine water temperature is higher than
70℃. Press the lid and slowly turn to the
left to allow the steam to escape, place a
thin cloth around the lid and unscrew it.
·Do not screw the water tank lid with
gloves to avoid being scalded by high
pressure hot water.
·Antifreeze contains substances harmful to
the human body. If you swallow it by
accident, you should induce vomiting
immediately and go to hospital.
· Keep children away from the antifreeze.
