5.14 Parking
When parking the Combilift always ensure that one of the two recommended parking
methods is followed. This is to ensure the safety of the operator and others in the
vicinity of the truck. The attended parking method is for cases where the operator
needs to exit the machine but will be no more than 25 feet (7 metres) away. The
unattended parking method is for cases where the operator must exit the machine but
will be further than 25 feet away.
Attended parking method
Bring the truck to a complete stop on level ground.
Once stopped, apply the park brake and set the 4-way direction lever to the
neutral position.
Lower the forks fully and tilt the mast fully forward.
Leave the engine running.
Remove the seatbelt from its buckle and exit the Combilift using the three point
contact method as discussed earlier.
Stay within 25 feet (7 metres) of the truck at all times.
Unattended parking method
Bring the truck to a complete stop on level ground.
Once stopped, apply the park brake and set the 4-way direction lever to the
neutral position.
Lower the forks fully and tilt the mast fully forward.
Turn the key switch to the ‘OFF’ position and remove the key to prevent
unauthorised use of the truck.
Remove the seatbelt from its buckle and exit the Combilift using the three point
contact method as discussed earlier.
Warning
Before exiting the vehicle, place controls in neutral and apply the park
brake. Never leave the seat without applying the park brake.
Park in a safe area on level ground. Never park on an incline/slope.
If the truck breaks down on an incline, securely chock the wheels, remove
the key and place an ‘out of order sign’ on the windscreen.
Warning
If the truck is to be left unattended, fully lower the mast, tilt the mast fully
forward, turn the key to the ‘Off’ position and remove the key.
Ensure the parked truck does not cause an obstruction or safety hazard.
