WARNING
Do not operate this truck unless you have been autho-
rized and trained to do so, and have read all warnings
and instructions in Operator’s Manual and on this
truck.
Do not operate this truck until you have checked its
condition. Give special attention to wheels, horn, bat-
tery, controller, lift system, brakes, steering mecha-
nism, guards and safety devices.
Operate truck only from designated operating position.
Do not carry passengers. Keep feet clear of truck and
wear foot protection.
Observe applicable traffic regulations. Yield right of
way to pedestrians. Slow down and sound horn at
cross aisles and wherever vision is obstructed.
Start, stop, travel, steer and brake smoothly. Slow
down for turns and on uneven or slippery surfaces that
could cause truck to slide or overturn. Use special
care when traveling without load as the risk of overturn
may be greater.
Always look in direction of travel. Keep a clear view,
and when load interferes with visibility, travel with load
trailing.
Use special care when operating on ramps travel
slowly, and do not angle or turn. Travel with load
downhill.
Do not handle loads which are higher than the chassis
unless load is secured so that no part of it could fall
backward. Before lifting, be sure load is centered,
forks are completely under the chassis backrest.
When leaving truck, neutralize travel control, fully
lower lifting mechanism and set brake. When leaving
truck unattended, also shut off power.
