Operator Restraint System
The seat belt, hip restraints, seat and mount, hood,
and latches are all part of the operator restraint sys-
tem. Each item must be checked to make sure it is
fastened correctly, functions correctly, and is in good
condition.
Make sure seat rails and latch striker are not loose.
See Figure 9. The seat rails must lock tightly in posi-
tion, but move freely when unlocked. The seat rails
must be correctly fastened to the mount surface. If
the mount surface is the hood, the hood must be fas-
tened to the floor plate with the latch. The floor plate
must be fastened to the lift truck frame. Try to lift
hood to make sure it is fastened correctly and will
not move.
The end of the seat belt must fasten correctly in the
latch. Make sure seat belt pulls from retractor as-
sembly and retracts smoothly. The seat belt must
be in good condition. A seat belt that is damaged or
worn will not provide protection when it is needed.

Make sure steering column latch operates correctly.
The latch must NOT allow the column to move unless
the latch is released.
