1.2. SAFE TRAVEL
1-12
WHEN CARRYING A HIGH LOAD, USE A SIGNAL
PERSON OR DRIVE BACKWARDS
• If the view to the front is obstructed by the load, turn to the
rear and drive the lift truck in reverse.
• When driving in reverse with a high load, use a signal
person to ensure the safety of the load and the safety in the
surrounding area.
APPLY THE BRAKES CORRECTLY WHILE RUNNING
• Do not stop the engine while the truck is in motion. When the
engine is not running, the operating efforts for power steering and power brakes (if present) increase. Thus it is
dangerous to stop the engine while running.
• If the inching pedal is depressed, the braking effect of the engine will be lost.
• Do not use the brakes unnecessarily or too frequently. If your lift truck is a TORQFLOW transmission type and
you rest your foot on the inching pedal during operations, the multiple clutch plates of the transmission will
overheat, deforming the clutch plates and causing them to malfunction, in the worst case.
PAY SPECIAL ATTENTION TO THE REAR VIEW WITH AN LPG CYLINDER-INSTALLED
(GASOLINE ENGINE) LIFT TRUCK
• The installed LP gas cylinder partially blocks the rear view and poses a danger of hitting people, piled
commodities, or contact with nearby objects. Therefore, install backup warning devices (backup alarm buzzer,
rotating warning lamp, etc.) or backup safety checking devices such as a rear view mirror in order to warn
people nearby and check for safe conditions in the area of the truck.
• When installing optional warning devices, call your Komatsu Forklift dealer for details.
REQUIRED BRAKING DISTANCE DIFFERS DEPENDING ON THE ROAD CONDITIONS
• When traveling downhill, it requires a longer distance for the lift truck to stop than when traveling on level
ground.
• When traveling downhill, reduce the speed and make sure that you have ample room at the bottom of the
slope to stop.
• Traveling on wet surfaces requires a longer distance to stop than when traveling on normal road surfaces.
Always leave ample room to stop.
