WARNING
- Watch Out for Pinch Points
Stay clear of moving parts. Operator should
remain behind the push handle during the lift
operation.
Floor Lock
The step-down floor lock is located behind the base.
Stepping down on the floor lock until it locks in the down
position activates the floor lock. When the floor lock is
activated it prevents unwanted free wheeling of the unit.
Floor conditions determine the effectiveness of the floor
lock. The operator should verify its holding action before
depending on it to hold.
