:
1. Determine Condition of Floor or Other Supporting Surface:
Inspect the floor or other surface
s prior to use.
The supporting surface must be smooth and dry so choose a route that avoids obstacles, spills, and surface
damage.
Casters might become stuck in gaps or cracks in the surface, which could cause the
SLNM
to
stop suddenly. A sudden stop can cause the load to shift and the load and truck might tip over.
2. Inspect the
SLNM
& Perform a Functions Test:
Inspection Prior to Use:
ALWAYS inspect the unit before you use it.
Begin the inspection by removing all debris found on the surface of
the forks and the housing, and then:
a. Check the forks for deformation and cracks;
b. Check the floor beneath the truck and the truck itself for leaked hydraulic fluid or battery acid.
DO NOT use the
Stacker
if you discover any damage or abnormalities. Tag the unit “Out-of-
Service” and report the problem[s] to authorized maintenance personnel.
Functions Test:
Verify that the unit works properly. Drive the stacker to a location where the following tests can be performed
without contacting overhead obstructions or items on the ground:
1. Raise the forks to the maximum elevation;
2. Return the forks to the lowest position.
3. Raise the forks, and while raising them, press the E-stop button.
The forks should immediately stop
moving.
Reset the E-stop.
4.
Only use the
stacker
if all mechanisms function normally. If [a] malfunctions occurred, park the
stacker in a safe location, tag it “Out-of-Service” and then report the malfunctions to maintenance personnel.
Operation:
Step 1: Turn on the power.
Pull the red E-stop button up.
Step 2:
Press the raise button (green) to raise the forks.
Step 3:
Press the down button (red) lower the forks.
Fully raise the forks, and while lowering the forks press the E-stop. The forks should immediately stop
moving. Reset the E-stop.
