OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
• Release the parking brake and start a new working
cycle.
CAUTION
Do not move off when the load is raised 20÷30 cm
above the ground. Risk of machine overturning or
load fall.

C-5.2.2 Working phases
When forks are correctly spaced, the handler is ready
to use.
Work can be subdivided into three different phases:
loading, transfer and unloading.
Loading phase
• Approach the load to the handled perpendicularly
and check that the machine is level on the
inclinometer.
• Insert the forks under the load and raise the load
some centimetres.
• Pitch the forks backwards and check the machine
stability before handling a load.
Transfer phase
• Do not start or brake abruptly.
• Drive to the unloading point cautiously and keep
the load 20÷30 cm from the ground.
• Suit the machine speed to the ground conditions to
avoid dangerous jumps, side skids of the vehicle
and possible load falls.
• When driving on slopes or ramps, hold the load
uphill.
DANGER
Do not drive on slopes sideways; this wrong
manoeuvre is one of the main reasons for accidents
due to vehicle overturning.
Unloading phase
• Drive to the unloading point with straight wheels
and bring the machine to a smooth stop leaving
enough space to operate the boom.
• Put the parking brake and set the transmission to
neutral.
• Position the load some centimetres above the
desired position and set the forks level.
• Lower the load and make sure it is level.
• Carefully withdraw the forks by operating the boom
retraction control and, if necessary, raise or lower
the boom as forks come out.
• When the forks are clear of the load, set them to
transfer position.
