SAFETY RULES AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Steering
The steering wheel and steering system are similar to an automobile.
To turn right, turn the steering wheel clockwise. To turn left, turn the
steering wheel counter-clockwise. If equipped with tilt steering, the
release lever is located on the lower left of the steering column. Pull the
lever up to reposition the steering wheel.
Battery Status Indicator, Digital Bargraph (optional)
The battery status indicator is located to the left of the hour meter. The
battery status indicator has a LED bar graph that indicates the relative
state of charge of the battery. The top LED will light only when connected
to a fully charged battery or after completing a charging cycle.
Successive lower LED’s will light as the battery charge diminishes.
When the second from the bottom LED flashes the battery energy status
is in energy reserve and should be placed on charge as soon as possible.
When the two bottom LED’s are alternately flashing the batteries are
empty and the truck should be taken out of service and charged to
avoid damaging the batteries. The BSI will reset to fully charged only
after a complete charge cycle is completed. A complete charge cycle is
defined as battery voltage exceeding 2.35 volts per cell for a minimum
of 6 minutes.
Hour Meter (optional)
The hour meter is located to the rear of the battery status indicator. It
records the number of hours the vehicle has been in operation.
