1.6: Operating
Conditions
The Combilift can operate on a variety of different surfaces and in various
conditions but the following should be noted:
Ground Surface:
Floor and road surfaces should be of adequate load capacity, firm, smooth
and level. Approaches to kerbs, railway crossings etc. should also be firm,
smooth and adequately ramped to prevent possible displacement.
Aisle Dimensions:
Aisles should be arranged to eliminate corners, angles, inclines, steep ramps,
narrow passages and low ceilings. When Operating in guided aisles ensure
that the mast is retracted fully before entering the aisle. Enter the aisle slowly
to reduce impact on the rollers and guide rails.
Headroom:
Structures over aisles, which may be potential obstacles should be defined
and marked with a conspicuous colour. Low doorways should be marked with
their clearance limits.
Operating in Hazardous Areas:
Standard trucks are not equipped to operate in cold stores, flammable or
explosive areas, corrosive atmospheres or areas containing a high degree of
dust contamination.
Gradients:
When differences in levels exist, low gradient ramps should be provided,
having smooth, gradual level changes at top and bottom to prevent shocks to
the load or fouling of the forks. Except in emergencies, do not turn the truck on
gradients. Correct gradient procedure should be followed at all times (see Safe
Operation in section 3) Do not park on a gradient. In an emergency apply
parking brake and chock wheels, but do not leave the truck unattended.
Warning
Always be aware of overhead electrical power cables. Always remain a
minimum of 5M from overhead power lines as an electric arc can occur
even when approaching an electric line. This poses a high risk for not only
the operator but for other personnel nearby.
