Operating
the machine
Jump starting the machine
Starting the machine by means of a booster battery can be done by using other 12-volt batteries,
which may then be connected to the starter motor. lf using another machine for this purpose
make certain the two machines do not touch.
1- Apply the parking brake and lower the forks to the ground.
2- Lift the cabin.
3- Make certain that the direction switch is in the neutral position.
4- Connect the positive (+) cable of the booster batteries to, the positive (+) terminal of the
machine battery. Then connect the negative (-) cable of the booster batteries to a good ground
connection on the frame of the machine.
5- Start the forklift engine in the normal fashion.
6- Disconnect the booster cables in the same order - first disconnect the booster cables from the
positive (+) terminal of the forklift battery and then disconnect the booster cables from the nega-
tive (-) terminal of the forklift battery.
When the machine is warm and idling do the following:
- Check all the instruments on the instrument panel.
- Test steering, both right and left, while moving slowly
- Raise the forks about 6in (150 mm) above the ground.
- Test the parking brake.
- Test the foot brakes for correct firmness of operation.
Understanding the Rated Capacity of the CH 200 and CH 250 forklifts
The Rated Capacity of this forklift is the weight the machine is capable of lifting under safe ope-
rating conditions. The lifting capacity of a forklift is determined by the height and weight limits
of the load. Poor ground conditions as well as shape of the load may reduce the weight that
can be safely lifted. Overloading the forks can make the forklift unstable, hard to handle, and
may be in danger of tipping over.
Inspect the load you intend to lift and make certain it is within the limits of the Load Capacity
Chart located on the left mudguard.
With load centre at 20 in or 500mm (European and ISO standards), the CH 200 has a rated
capacity of 4,384lbs or 2000Kg and the CH 250 has a rated capacity of 5,48lbs or 2,500Kg.
With load centre at 24 in or 600 mm (American Standard) the CH200 has a rated capacity of
4040lbs (1835 Kg) and the CH 250 has a rated capacity of 5060 lbs (2294 Kg)
If the load is too heavy split it and re-stack it. Use of attachments other than the two standard
pallet forks that came with this machine may reduce lifting capacity and affect other machine
handling characteristics.
If this forklift has a side-shift carriage, the capacity of the load is decreased. Reproduced below
are copies of the Load Capacity Chart for a forklift with a side-shift carriage. Study the Load
Capacity Chart for your machine carefully and make certain you understand it before lifting loads
on the forks.
Load Center (fig.1-2)
To rate the lifting capacity of forklifts manufacturers have standardized on a certain size of load.
The rated capacity of this forklift is based on a cube measuring 39in (1000mm) in accordance at
European and ISO standards, or 48in in accordance with American standards, in all three dimen-
sions with the center of gravity in the center of this cube. This is known as a 19.5 or 24in load
center (with the center of gravity 19.5 or 24in from both the vertical face of the mast and from the
lifting surface of the forks). lt is important to keep load center in mind for as the load center incre-
ases, the lifting capacity of the forklift decreases.
The relationship between the forklift and the load is altered by changes in:
*Removable attachments (see load limit charts).
*Height of the forks.
*Changes in the motion of the machine and the grade of the ground on which it is moving.
*Smoothness and stability of the ground.
*Machine stability must be maintained while these factors change constantly during forklift ope-
ration. This requires careful judgement on the part of the operator.
