Check that there is no load on the forks.
• When jacking up, stop when the tires come off the ground
surface. Put blocks under both sides of the frame to prevent
the lift truck from coming down.
• Put a tire stopper behind the tires in contact with the floor so
that the lift truck will not move freely.
PRECAUTIONS WHEN USING BOOSTER (JUMPER) CABLES

• When starting using the battery of another lift truck, do not allow the two lift trucks to touch.

• Ensure that the cables are hooked up correctly - positive-to-positive and negative-to-negative. Never let the
positive (+) and negative (-) terminals contact each other.

Obey appropriate laws and regulations when disposing of
harmful objects such as oil, filters, and batteries.

malfunctions or operational failure. Do not wash the
electrical system with water or high-pressure steam.
• For more details on the washing method, see “LIFT TRUCK
