Downhill slope 

When  travelling  down  the  slope  use  the  right  foot  to 
apply  the  Service  Brake  Pedal  and  so  control  the 
speed.  The  speed  will  also  be  controlled  by  the 
control system. 

Turning in a Narrow Aisle 

Drive  the  truck  down  the  aisle.    Identify  the  load 
location and position the truck to the opposite side of 
the  aisle  leaving  a  clearance  from  the  racking  of 
about  125mm  at  the front  wheels  and  150mm  at  the 
rear  wheels.    The  truck  should  now  be  alongside 
chosen pallet with steering straight.  Position the front 
wheel  opposite  the  centre  line  of  the  chosen  pallet 
stack.  Turn  the  steering  wheel  to  full  lock.  The 
footbrake  or  handbrake  should  not  be  applied.  The 
forks  are  now  in  line  for  entering  the  pallet.  Reverse 
the  procedure  to  straighten  the  truck  to  proceed 
along the aisle. 

Loading 

 

WARNING

 

Do  not  exceed  the  rated  capacity  of  the  truck  as 
overloading  can  cause  truck  instability.    If  in  doubt, 
check with Capacity Plate (1). 
 
Loads  which  are  to  be  transported  and  placed  in 
storage  must  be  securely  packaged.    This  ensures 
that  the  centre  of  gravity  does  not  move  during 
loading and that no small parts are able to drop out. 
 
When  manoeuvering  to  pick  up  a  load,  avoid  erratic 
movements that could result in damage to the load or 
the truck. 
 
Always  approach  the  load  with  the  centre  line  of  the 
truck in line with the load. 
 
Apply  Parking  Brake,  raise  load  150mm  to  200mm 
above ground level and tilt the mast back to stabilise 
if required. 
 
When  picking  up  a  load,  ensure  that  it  is  centrally 
positioned on the forks and that the forks are inserted 
as  far  under  the  load  as  possible.    The  pallet/load 
should contact the vertical face of the forks. 
 
When carrying a load always travel with the mast and 
fork carriage in the correct travelling position i.e. Mast 
fully  tilted  back  and  the  lowest  point  of  the  forks  or 
load  approximately  150mm  to  200mm  above  the 
ground. 
 
Note  that  the  truck  is  designed  to  be  operated  as  a 
means  of  transporting  and  handling  goods.  Thus 
lifting  operations  should  form  no  more  than  20%  of 
the operating cycle. Failure to observe this may result 
in overheating of the hydraulic system. 

Stacking / De-stacking 

There are two methods of stacking/de-stacking loads.  
The relationship between the aisle width and the load 
size  will  determine  which  of  the  two  methods  should 
be used. 

Stacking 

 

Pick  up  the  load  as  described  in 

Loading  (this 

page)

.    Drive  down  the  aisle  and  position  the 

truck  as  described  in 

Turning  in  a  Narrow  Aisle 

(this page).

 

 

Apply the Parking Brake and reduce the back tilt 
to an amount sufficient to stabilise the load. 

 

Raise  the  load  to  the  required  height  for 
stacking. 

 

When the load is clear of the chosen rack beam, 
release  the  Parking  Brake  and  move  slowly 
forward and  at the same time smoothly turn the 
Steering  Wheel  to  keep  the  load  parallel  to  the 
rack end frame. 

 

When  the  load  is  over  the  rack,  stop  and  apply 
the Parking Brake. 

 

Bring the mast to the vertical position and lower 
the load onto the rack. 

 

Release  the  Parking  Brake  and  slowly  reverse, 
at  the  same  time  turning  the  Steering  Wheel  to 
keep  the  forks  perpendicular  to  the  rack,  until 
the forks are clear. 

 

Apply

 

the  Parking  Brake,  lower  the  forks 

carefully  to  the  travel  position,  and  then  tilt  the 
mast back. 

 

Release  the  Parking  Brake  and  move  off.  (See 

Turning in a Narrow Aisle, this page).

 

De-stacking 

 

Drive the truck down the aisle and position the in 
line  with  the  pallet  as  described  in 

Turning  in  a 

Narrow  Aisle  (this  page)

  and  apply  Parking 

Brake. 

 

 

Bring  the  mast  to  the  vertical  position  and  raise 
the  forks  to  a  height  that  will  allow  clear  entry 
into the pallet.  Release the Parking Brake. 

 

 

Insert  the  forks  by  slowly  driving  forward  and  at 
the  same  time  smoothly  turning  the  Steering 
Wheel  so  as  to  keep  the  forks  parallel  with  the 
pallet.  Apply the Parking Brake. 

 

 

Lift  the  load  until  clear  of  the  rack  and  carefully 
apply sufficient backward tilt to stabilise the load. 

 

 

Release  the  Parking  Brake,  slowly  reverse  and 
at  the  same  time  turn  the  Steering  Wheel  to 
keep the load square with the racks.  Take care 
not to dislodge adjacent loads.
