Truck operating instructions
Truck operating instructions
The trucks are designed for indoor and
outdoor use in non-hazardous atmospheres.
The temperature should be between -10°C
and +45°C and the relative humidity of the air
less than 95%.
NOTE
A cold store option is available for lower
temperatures.
The places where the truck is used must com-
ply with the applicable regulations (condition
of the ground, lighting etc.).
The trucks must be used on dry, clean and flat
ground.
Before using the truck, it is essential to check
the working environment. This check can take
the form of visual inspection.
The work area must be clear. The truck's path
must be free of obstacles and people.
The operator must be alert to anything that
might prevent manoeuvres being carried out
safely. The following may create a potential
danger:
• A person near the truck
• A person below the forks when they are
raised
• The operator must not use an MP3 player
or any other electrical equipment that could
impair awareness of his/her surroundings
• There must be no signs of oil or grease on
the floor
The operator must take care when transport-
ing a load. The load dimensions can interfere
with manoeuvres and restrict the field of vision.
The speed of the truck must also be reduced
as the truck could tip over when breaking or
cornering.
The loads must be consistent, with a maximum
recommended height of 2 m.
For uses other than those shown above,
please consult the After-Sales Service Centre.
It is important to use pallets that are in good
condition.
Speed must be reduced when moving over
obstacles to prevent the truck from becoming
unbalanced and vibrations in the operator's
arms.
The trucks can drive across ramps and
shallow inclines. With an initial lift, they can
cross larger obstacles.
WARNING
Risk of loss of stability
– Always adapt your driving to the ground condi-
tions (uneven surfaces etc.), particularly hazar-
dous working areas and the load.
NOTE
• To prevent the bottom of the load lift system
from scraping the ground, always move the
forks to the raised position before setting off
• Always switch off the ignition before leaving
the truck
• The mast protective screen must always be
correctly positioned, properly secured and
clean
WARNING
Risk of damaging the truck
Ensure that the height of the mast is lower than
obstacles (racks, doors etc.).
WARNING
Risk of injury
Always keep your hands on the controls. Never
put your hands near moving parts and assemblies
without first lowering the load arms to the ground
and disconnecting the battery.
For effective protection, safety shoes must be worn.
Do not climb on the hoods of the truck (battery,
chassis etc.).
