Brake Pedals
The left hand brake pedal (inching pedal) has two functions in order
to improve handling and efficiency. While pressing the inching pedal
the first part of its movement interrupts the power from the engine to
the transmission. The level of disengagement is dependent on the
move-ment of the pedal. The last part of the travel applies the brake
system.
In this way you are able to lift a load rapidly with full engine RPM
while controlling slow driving speed with the inching pedal like a
clutch. This is very useful in confined level working spaces.
On ramps or inclines the right hand brake pedal only should be used.
When using the inching pedal on slopes the lift truck could move
backwards or forwards unintentionally.
Direction Control Lever
This lever is typically on the left side of the steering column. When
changing the direction of travel, make sure that your lift truck has
come to a complete stop before moving the lever to the other
position.
IMPORTANT
For safety reasons, every CLARK forklift truck is fitted
with a neutral start switch. The purpose of this is to
prevent the engine from being started while the
transmission is in gear. Thus the engine may only start
when the direction control lever is in the neutral position.
CAUTION
!
I f the truck will start with the direction control lever in
either forward or reverse, there is a problem with the
neutral start switch and it must be repaired.
Neutral Shift Function
When driver leaves seat over 3sec, transmission goes to neutral
(power of fwd/rev solenoides is shut off). When driver gets back in
seat, truck must not go into gear until he shifts to neutral, then shifts
into gear.
