Seat Rails
Make sure the seat rails and latch striker are not
loose. The seat rails must lock tightly in position,
but move freely when unlocked (see Figure 7 and Fig-
ure 8). The seat rails must be correctly fastened to
the hood and to the hinges on the frame. Try to lift
the hood to make sure it is fastened correctly and will
not move.
Battery Restraint System
WARNING
The hood and battery restraint, with its latch
mechanisms, must operate correctly before a
lift truck is operated.
NOTE:
For hood latch operation, see Frame 100
SRM 1222.
The battery restraint is a heavy steel rod at the rear
of the battery compartment. See Figure 9. An ad-
justable spacer plate is used inside the battery com-
partment to prevent forward and backward move-
ment of the battery. The batteries for these lift trucks
must fit the battery compartment width with a max-
imum of 13 mm (0.5 in.) clearance.
The hood cannot be closed unless the battery re-
straint is engaged.
The battery restraint rod at
the top rear of the battery compartment must be
aligned over the edge of the battery.
The handle
of the battery restraint must also be in the down
position to close the hood. Use the handle to move
the battery restraint rod over the edge of the battery
so the handle can be moved to the down position.
