Warning

Steering
A forklift is not like an ordinary vehicle in that it
has rear-wheel steering, which means that the
rear counterweight swings outward when
cornering.
Decelerate, then rotate the steering wheel in
the direction that you want to turn, slightly
ahead of the vehicle with front-wheel steering.
Caution
Drive slowly and operate the steering
wheel carefully. Ensure that there is
sufficient room for the rear end to swing
out when making the turn.
Parking

Decelerate, then depress the brake pedal
until the vehicle stops.

Get the shift lever in neutral.

Caution

Loading
─
Adjust the spacing between the forks to
ensure a well-balanced load
