OPERATING PROCEDURES
50
If the forks are longer than the load, move the forks under
the load so that the tips of the forks do not extend beyond
the load. Lift the load from the surface. Move backward a
few inches, then lower the load onto the surface and inch
forward to engage the load against the carriage. Tilt the
mast backward just far enough to lift the load from the
surface.
3. When a load is put on the floor, tilt the mast forward to
a vertical position and lower the load. Tilt the mast for-
ward to permit smooth removal of the forks. Carefully
move the lift truck backward to remove the forks from un-
der the load.
4. If the load is being removed from a stack, slowly move
the lift truck away from the stack. When the load is clear
of the stack, lower the load for travelling. Always travel
with the load as low as possible and tilted backward. Low-
ering speed is controlled by the position of the control le-
ver. Lower slowly and smoothly. Slowly return the control
lever to the neutral position so that the load is not dropped
or that the lift truck is not tipped over due to the rapid stop
of the load.
