5. Start removing goods from the pallet. As the stack becomes lower, the forks will move
higher to maintain the de-stacking surface at an ergonomic height. This eliminates
the need for hazardous manual lifting and lowering.
a. When de-stacking a layer of goods such as boxes, leave the item directly
beneath the laser sensor (marked by a red pointer) until last, so the forks will
remain at the correct height until the layer is completely removed.
b. If the de-stacking height is not exactly right, turn QUIKSTAK MODE off, manually
adjust the forks and press TEACH HEIGHT again, all as per step (2). The stacking
height will be updated in memory.
6. Once the pallet is empty, press the QUIKSTAK MODE button ( §2.1.3
⑭
) again to
deactivate the height-levelling system. The empty pallet can now be transported and
stored, and another full pallet collected as per Step (1).
2.6 Parking the stacker
After operation, park the Quikstak by carrying out the following procedures:
1. Drive the Quikstak to the designated parking location.
2. Lower the forks to the ground.
3. Turn off the key-switch. The key may be removed for safekeeping if necessary.
4. Depress the EMERGENCY STOP button.
5. If necessary, place the stacker on charge as per §2.7 .
These procedures should be carried out even if the Quikstak is only unused for a short
period of time.
Never park the Quikstak on sloping ground, or with the forks raised.
2.7 Charging the batteries
When the battery indicator ( §2.1.2
⑦
) shows less than 20%
charge as illustrated by Figure 8, the Quikstak should not be
used, and should be placed on charge as soon as possible.
1. Drive the Quikstak to the designated charging location
and park it as per
§2.6 .
2. Withdraw the charging lead from the fascia and plug it
into a regular 1-phase power outlet. The charger status
LED (
§2.1.2
⑨
) will glow RED to indicate that charging is
underway. A full charge may take up to 6 hours. The
Quikstak cannot be operated while on charge.
3. When the batteries are fully charged, the charger status LED will start to glow GREEN.
The charging lead should be disconnected from the wall socket and re-stowed into
the facia before the Quikstak is operated.
Continuing to operate the stacker on less than 20% charge may damage the batteries.
It is recommended to recharge the batteries only when there is less than 50% charge
remaining. Over-frequent or incomplete charging may reduce battery life.
