move again.

WARNING

The inching pedal also acts on the parking brake when it is kept fully depressed.

b-

electronically when the inching pedal is kept fully depressed.

 

Joystick (fig. 3)

Forward and backward directional travel control

The direction of travel is changed using the electric switch

 located on the lower part 

of the joystick. In each case the corresponding arrow showing the direction of travel 
lights up.
When the direction arrows are not lit, the direction of travel control is at the stop position 
(neutral). By pressing the front of the switch the machine travels forwards and by 
pressing the rear of the switch the machine travels backwards.

Safety:

 When the parking brake is not on and/or the operator is not sitting in the driver’s 

seat, the direction arrows are also switched off and the direction of travel control is 
disconnected.

CAUTION

When the parking brake is not on and/or the operator is not sitting in the 
driver’s seat, the direction arrows are also switched off and the direction of 
travel control is disconnected.

 Back-up 

alarm

WARNING

If the forklift is equipped with lighting, the back-up alarm is disconnected when 
the lights are switched on. However, the rear white reversing lights continue to 
work.
