Forks
•
Lift each fork lever so that the forks can be shifted left and
right. Adjust the forks in the position most appropriate for the
load. When adjusting the forks, make sure that the center of
gravity of the load corresponds to the center of the vehicle.
After adjustment, return the lever to lock the forks in plate.
WARNING!
Make sure the forks are locked before carrying a load.
Draw bar
The draw bar is located at the back of the counterweight, and is
used to pull the vehicle should its tires drop into a gutter or
become stuck in mud.
It can also be used for loading the forklift onto a truck or another
vehicle.
CAUTION!
The draw bar should not be used for towing the forklift or for
towing another vehicle using the forklift.
Vehicle hoisting method
When hoisting the vehicle, use the lifting holes near the top of
the mast for the front side and the overhead guard for the rear
position as shown in the illustration.
CAUTION!
• Use wire cable which is sufficiently strong.
• Never use the holes on the upper side of the counterweight to
hoist the vehicle.
