Parking
the machine
Parking the machine and stopping the engine
Make certain that the forklift is parked on level ground when leaving it overnight. Also park it on
level ground before any scheduled maintenance is attempted. Lower the forks to the ground,
apply the parking brake and push directional switch to neutral. Run the engine at idle for 1 minu-
te if the engine has been working at full load -as this procedure will cool the engine components
evenly. Now turn off the key switch in a counterclockwise motion to stop the engine. Remove the
key from the ignition and take it with you. Never leave the key in a parked machine.
Overhead Guard
Overhead Guard must be weekly inspected for excesive damage, cracks, permanent deforma-
tion or signs of potential cracks. If these incidents appears, structure must not be repaired but
replaced for a new one.
Be careful with the environment
At the end of the operating life of the machine, bring it to a recycling center or an scrap-dealer.
It is absolutely forbidden to leave the materials in public places.
When changing the engine oil or other fluids, use a big collecting trough. Make sure not to pollu-
te the environment with emerging oil and other waste products (coolant, batteries, etc.) bring
them to the corresponding recycling centre.
In case that substances escape from the machine that are harmful to the environment and/or to
the people, take remedial measures inmediately, (eg.: if hydraulic oil emerges; apply oil bonding
agent, put a collecting vessel underneath, tighten leakage, remove and dispose of contaminated
earth, if required).
At the end of the life cycle of the machine, bring it to the specialised and recognised recycling
centres.
WARNING
You are protected by an overhead guard which complies with the provi-
sions of ISO 6055 and ASME B56.6. It protects the operator against falling
objects and, together with the mast, gives protection to the operator in the
event of an accidental tip over. The seat belt is an important part of this
safety system and must always be fastened before operating the forklift.
Failure to wear the seat belt in the event of an accidental tip over could
result serious injury or death as you could be crushed by the machine or
by the overhead guard.
