Inching
NOTE :
The purpose of the inching pedal is to
provide precise lift truck inching control at
very slow travel speed and high engine
rpm. This is used for fast hydraulic lift,
during load approach, pick up or load
positioning.
1.
To inch (creep) in either direction, slowly push
down on the inching pedal. This will start to
apply the service brakes and allow the
transmission clutch discs to slip.
2.
Vary the position of the inching pedal and the
accelerator pedal to control the inching speed
and distance.
3.
Pushing down further on the inching pedal will
disengage the transmission completely and
apply the service brakes fully to stop and hold
the lift truck. This will provide full engine power
for fast hydraulic lift.
