To Forklift Owners

ASME B56.1 and B56.6 are the standards for forklift operation,
rules and safety, maintenance, safe operation, training and super-
vision. You should read this manual and make it available to your
operators and their supervisors. You can get it from the American
Society of Mechanical Engineers, 345 East 47th Street, United
Engineering Center, New York, NY 10017.
ASME B56.1 and B56.6 are a key part of forklift safety. However,
making forklift operation safe involves other areas and responsibili-
ties. The forklift owner is responsible to ensure their operators
have adequate training in operating the forklift. This training
includes, but should not be limited to, classroom and hands-on
training. Forklift safety involves the forklift itself, the environment it
works in, and the people who come in contact with it. Consider
your entire operation when addressing forklift safety.
The operator's manual is not a training manual. It is a guide to
help trained and authorized operators safely operate their forklift
by showing the proper procedures. This manual combined with
adequate operator training will help reduce situations that may
cause an accident.
Operators must be trained and qualified to operate a forklift before
actually operating one.
Forklift training and operator awareness of the forklift work area
will help ensure a safe workplace for all your employees.

ENGINE OIL: Lube oils are differentiated according to their effi-
ciency and quality grade. Commonly used are the API
Specifications.
Approved Oils:
Non-turbocharged Engines
CC/SE
CC/SF
CD/SE
CD/SF
VISCOSITY: Because the viscosity of the lube oil is greatly influ-
enced by the temperature, the choice of SAE-grade should be
governed by the ambient temperature at the engine site. Optimum
operating behavior will be attained if you use the chart below.
COLD WEATHER START: The Deutz engine is equipped with a
cold weather starting aid called "Glow Plugs". When the tempera-
ture is below 40 F, you should use the pre-heat option. To pre-heat
the engine, turn the key to the "on" position until the pre-heat light
goes out. Then turn the key to the "start" position "the right". If the
engine does not start, wait 1 minute before pre-heating the engine
again.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT OVERCRANK THE ENGINE
