Section 3. Operator Compartment and Controls
Steering Column Pylon
The steering wheel can be tilted forwards
and backwards in small discrete movements.
Push and hold pylon lock, move the wheel to
the desired position and release lock.
Hood open
The hood release lever is located on the left
side of hood.
Unitrol Pedal(Optional)
With the CLARK Unitrol, the directional
control lever is no longer located on the
steering pylon. The direction of travel and
speed of truck is determined by the Unitrol
pedal.
• Forward : To select and move the truck
in the forward direction you must push
down on the(FWD arrow) left side of
the Unitrol pedal. The further the pedal is depressed the faster
the lift truck will go in forward.
• Reverse : To select and move the truck in the reverse direction
you must push down on the(REV arrow) right side of the Unitrol
pedal. The further the pedal is depressed the faster the lift truck
will go in reverse.
• Neutral : The unitrol pedal activates only FWD and REV. Neutral is
activated only when the parking brake is set.
IMPORTANT
For safety reasons, your CLARK forklift truck is fitted with
a neutral start switch. The purpose of this is to prevent the
engine from being started while the transmission is in
gear. Thus the engine may only start when the direction
control lever is in the neutral position.
